Every time, I voted for them in the general even though that vote was coerced through a corrupt system that refuses to let me vote for someone who actually represents me.
What meetings did you go to? Any? None. You went to none, right? Did you help someone campaign? No? Well that’s not a corrupt system that’s a system you have no part in not picking who you want. You can see how that might happen, right.
8 goddamn years of listening to high and mighty people like you telling me how everything that’s happening is my fault even though I voted against what was happening at every turn. Fuck off.
Eight whole years? Damn, that’s amazing. But those are rookie numbers. You gotta pump up those numbers to get into the high and mighty club. Try 16 years, 20 years, 30 years. More. Democrats refusing to understand how communication works and republiQans descending into open nazism the whole time. Third parties somehow, astoundingly, being even worse. Then watch a bunch of idiots decide to not vote because “the system is corrupt” and allow a demented incompetent nazi rapist into office. And how did you think it was your fucking fault again you fuck? Because if you voted, that’s the very best thing you can do. If you voted and want to say the Democrats need to do more for the working class, please do. I’ll join you. Again.
Lol, you wanna square this “oh I’m on the same side as you” with your immediate attack on me based on nothing but your assumption? Because I can’t figure out what in my original response you disagree with if what you say here is true. You just immediately went full neoliberal attack on any criticism of the Democrats, so frankly I don’t buy your bullshit here.
8 years is how long the Democrats have been openly and unashamedly thumbing the scale in their primaries (starting in 2016) and the start of the progressive movement, it’s not a competition.
So, the initial premise is: there are a large segment of voters who purposefully, deliberately, did not vote because they wanted to “send the Democrats a message” or some idiot thing like that. They supported trump in doing so, and despite having that explained in every language and manner possibly available, they still sat at home while the faithful chuds drove their unfathomably large trucks to the polls as expected.
So you come in with “Yeah but the Democrats do suck” and I assumed you were saying “it is right and proper not to vote” which - no. But then you did vote so - well, okay.
And fwiw I think your “thumb on the scale” is not very accurate with the notable and egregious exception of the DWS years which led to her immediate ousting and we never want to see that shit again. 2020 Biden had his primary and whoever your candidate was (assuming Bernie?) had their run to win that and didn’t. A dark horse often emerges in the primaries, that’s how we got Clinton. In 2024, Biden made the unfortunate decision to run again and that threw everything off because there wouldn’t be a proper primary, until the debate performance convinced him to withdraw. In that case there simply wasn’t time for a national primary again, without creating and/or bending a bunch of rules that essentially allowed for an emergency nationwide all-at-once vote just for Democrats to pick the next candidate which was never going to happen and shouldn’t.
That said, I’ve seen more than my fill of milquetoast men with nice hair and kakhi pants try to be Reagan lite and can’t stomach anything more like that. This bullshit with Pelosi denying AOC of House Oversight is a similar piece of bullshit. I expect four years of Democrats putting out press releases of being “very concerned” and doing jack shit in public, in the press, like they should. The ones who have already turned traitor for the cabinet picks are on the list. But we’ll see. Maybe we can balance things in two years. It depends if some of these idiot fucks get out and vote this time.
Well if you voted, that’s all anyone can ask for.
