jfc. And here I was thinking that that audio clip of Ken Martin literally fucking crying at David Hogg would amount to anything. These people have the utmost contempt for their constituents, it is absolutely ridiculous. They would LITERALLY rather America succumb to a fascist takeover than begin to call out their own, or oppose their corporate donors. The average democratic voter has more balls and patriotism than these people. Words cannot describe how insanely livid this makes me, neolibs can suck my fucking balls.
This confirms to me that the Democrats always having enough people breaking rank to pass horrible Republican bills is a feature of the party and not a bug because they instantly toss the guy trying to fix it. There will NEVER be enough Democrats in elected positions to pass the bills they pretend to want to pass nor will there ever be enough to stop Republican rule, no matter how small a minority they are.
I don’t agree with all this guy says, but I agreed that the Democratic party is fucking worthless. They are done. We need a new party to beat fascism or we need a new system. One where oligarchs cannot buy power.
and this is why the DNC is going to die. Its killing itself with its own greed.
Yeah they’re better than the republicans because they don’t commit literal treason in broad daylight. But these fuckers want to get paid more than they want to serve and better their country.
Party of absolute sellouts. Dem party will never do the right thing and they are beyond cooked. We need real power on the left, not these clowns.
So, what do we do?
We start funding a third party, and not the fucking green party
But Jill Stein will emerge from her cocoon in just three short years!
The green party has primaries. Tiny ones. We could just walk in and take it over.
I’ll run. Vote for me.
Only if trump needs her to siphon away votes, as ordered by putin.
It’s possible this could be a 7 or 13 year cycle

So both sides are the same after all.
The Duopoly ends when we dump both parties
you’re an idiot if you actually believe this.
edit: seems there are a lot of idiots.
They’re not the same. They do have the same bosses, though. So it stands to reason they’re both moving us towards the same goals.

both moving us towards the same goals.
So they are both the same. I don’t know why Americans still think they aren’t.
No, they’re not. There are plenty of sifferences. Most are superficial, but they’re differences nontheless. I don’t know why you can’t comprehend that there’s more than one path to the same goal.
I don’t know why you can’t comprehend that there’s more than one path to the same goal.
If the same goal is towards fascism, then they are the same.
No, that means they have the same goal, not that they are identical. There are many paths one could take towards that goal.
So keep voting blue no matter who anyway even if the end goal is fascism. Gotcha.
I did not say that.nor so I endorse that philosophy. My state is solidly blue and doesn’t have enough electoral votes to affect the election in any meaningful way. I’ve been voting third party for almost 30 years because it’s the only possible way for my presidential vote to matter at all. It’s actually impressive how stupid and wrong your strawman argument is in this case.
Hoggs anti-firearm stance is a non-starter for me.
Edit: Downvoted for my opinion 🤔. Remind me again how this platform is better than reddit?

Well, it’s not the lack of people whining about downvotes.
Whining about downvotes, remind us again how you’re better than redditors?
It’s not much of a whine, but sure.
Well when you go through what he did it’s understandable
I get that he’s been through a terrible event, but that’s all the more reason to understand why guns are so important. We’re always going to live in fear of the right because they embrace guns and OWN gun culture. Guns, you know the thing that’s designed to KILL. We’re legitimately and utterly fucked if/when the right turns on us. Who are we going to turn to when lefties are getting slaughtered in the streets?
IMO It’s this anti-gun policy policy that is the main detriment to left ideology in America. I get anti-gun can fly in other Western nations, but not in ours.
It’s nice watching people do a 180 on guns when a gun control advocate wants to primary centrists.
It’s almost like Dems don’t want to win.
If it means moving to the left, they would rather have trump.
We all fucking told you so.
We told them so, we were called russian bots and trump supporters for saying “They want Trump to win, this is bad.”
Gotta love being a Cassandra. Calling out that something bad will happen, people ignore you, bad thing happens, people now think you’re just using hindsight.
What is the most effective way to let the DNC know that I hate them?
Vote for progressives in your state and local Democratic primaries.
And I would add: Don’t give squat to the Democratic Party.
Give to Leaders we Deserve. Then send a copy of your receipt (with anything they could use to spam you redacted) to the DNC explaining that you give to causes you believe in. Let them know that the absence of a check in the same envelope is not an oversight.
