Personally, they have and they will. I love the DNC platform, I hope soon we can give them more than 50 senate seats for the first time in over a decade.
Man, if you want to argue that milquetoast moderate Dems get the largest number of votes by offending the least number of potential voters, that’s one thing, but old-school Dems have a very poor track record of generating enthusiasm compared to alternatives.
I think complicity with a humanitarian crisis that gets repeatedly labeled as either genocide or ethnic cleansing is a kick in the nuts.
I think 128 Dem reps voting with Republicans to table impeachment proceedings against an authoritarian president is a kick in the nuts.
But more to your point, I think arguing for expanding healthcare within the context of a system of predatory insurance companies and for-profit healthcare facilities does little to actually fix what is wrong with healthcare. So yeah, kick in the nuts for sure.
Sorry babe, you’re a lost cause. You keep moving around from argument to argument to just avoid facing the reality: the democratic party, in its current form, offers nothing of substance that resonates with voters. If you’re right, and theyre bring ‘misled’, then that just solidifies how awfully impotent Dem messaging is.
You picked a strawman by saying that our only options against Palestinian genocide are active participation or finger-wagging, yet mentioned nothing regarding Democratic representatives voting against impeachment or the need for top-to-bottom restructuring of our healthcare system rather than reforming a broken model. Youre only consistent line of argument is that all Republicans are bad.
However, I take great pause at the fact that you are so quick to endorse the elimination of a party that represents a sizeable portion of the population (as awful as they might be) and believe the solution is the establishment of a one-party system with a political party that you seemingly find to be infallible.
My takeaway is that what you really want is to punish Republican voters, yet you fail to see just how much you resemble them.
The argument of “all Republicans are bad” is corroborated by the evidence. Your argument of “Everything short of utopia is hell and there is no point in doing anything unless it brings an utopia, and even then it’s pointless” is corroborated by shit out of your ass.
Meh, any Democrat is better than any Republican. The fact that Trump rages on twitter about Schumer means something hes doing is right.
Yeah but the old-school Dems won’t inspire people to get off their ass and vote.
Personally, they have and they will. I love the DNC platform, I hope soon we can give them more than 50 senate seats for the first time in over a decade.
I love their platform as well! But they are not executing. All the talk and position papers in the world mean nothing IRL if there’s no action.
Theres no action because they haven’t had more than 50 seats (including caucus) in over a decade.
So, might it be fair to say they’re losing? Perhaps because they can’t execute?
You’re mad that the people you refuse to let do the thing aren’t doing the thing?
Hey, if you ever want to come join us here in reality, I’ll save you a seat.
I’m sorry you choose to believe in an alternate reality, get well soon.

Thats why I said “personally” as in me myself.
It’s giving “getting kicked in the nuts is better than getting kicked in the head.”
Getting kicked in the nuts is better than being gutted with a fishing knife.
Yeah, no shit.
It’s not something everyone recognizes.
Which it undeniably is
You think exapanded healthcare is a kick in the nuts?
I think complicity with a humanitarian crisis that gets repeatedly labeled as either genocide or ethnic cleansing is a kick in the nuts.
I think 128 Dem reps voting with Republicans to table impeachment proceedings against an authoritarian president is a kick in the nuts.

Honey your options are genocide or passive nonconfrontational opposition to genocide.
If you cared at all about Pallestine you would want to remove every Republican first and foremost.
Psst. They don’t actually care about Palestine or they would have voted for the best possible option for Palestine.
It was always about stroking their moral superiority boner.

I stuck to the topic you brought up, pal.
