The possibility of the end of our democracy is precisely because of the many times we’ve gone along with “this is just how things are” and democrats insisting that we have to work with republicans while republicans kept getting worse and worse, moving the overton window to the right. Democrats need to put their foot down and pull back the overton window to the left, that is how we can make some real changes. Democrats doing this would show people that there is a party that will actually fight for them, a party worth going through the trouble of voting for. I thought this was the lesson that would be learned from 2016 when democrats pushed through a “safe” “centrist” candidate and lost, but instead they’ve doubled down.
israel doesn’t need to have bipartisan support. Yes, aipac has a lot of power, but it’s because of this undying support for israel which creates this feedback loop. Doing the right thing is worth it in the long run.
Yes, that was my point, republicans make a tangible difference when they get in while democrats mostly sit with their thumb up their ass. Interesting how trump did more in 4 years than obama did in 8. I do remember when the DNC pushed through an insanely unpopular candidate while also promoting trump as much as they could because they thought he’d be easy to win against. Somehow democrats think they can be smug and say “I told you so” when they’re the stupid fucks who lost against a clown that they helped set up as the opponent. It’s a joke party and their representative animal being a jackass suits them well.
Or – hold onto your seat for this stunning twist – I said “make a tangible difference” to emphasize that they’re making a tangible difference that people can feel. Being worse is a difference, galaxy brain.
When democrats win, nothing gets better either. Our political systems are shown to obviously cater to corporations instead of the will of the people. It’s time to stop voting for the lesser of two evils bullshit and rise the fuck up.
I could find HUNDREDS of other examples, but I won’t, because you won’t listen, because you’re a troll with an agenda. Fuck you and the elephant you rode in on.

Yes, I’m sure a Republican win will definitely help pull things left. What the hell, dude.
Do you think republicans got this bad while winning every single election?
Every single time they win, things get worse. Remember what happened in 2016 when people decided to not vote, so they could send a message to the DNC?

Ohhh so you’re one of those people. Your mask slipped a bit - you changed “made things worse” into “made a difference”.
So this whole time you only cared about hurting the Democrats, huh? You sure don’t sound like a Russian asset. What’s your motivation?

Sure, but with very different connotations. I’m not an idiot, I see what you did.
But if you’re still going to pretend this is a normal discussion there’s no point in me continuing.

Bullshit lies and republican propaganda. Fuck off with your “both sides”. Give Democrats power, and they make people’s lives better.
When democrats had a supermajority for just a few months, they passed legislation that saved 20,000 lives and improved countless others.
I could find HUNDREDS of other examples, but I won’t, because you won’t listen, because you’re a troll with an agenda. Fuck you and the elephant you rode in on.
K
Democrats: save 10s of thousands of people from dying
You: “eh, whatever”
And you wonder why Democrats pander to the moderates. Nothing is ever good enough for you people.
More genocide, record oil production, arming the border, starting new wars in the middle east. No that’s not fucking good enough lol.
Keep shifting right, I’m sure that can’t backfire.
