The Truth

Get a progressive to win a primary and Democrats are working with Republicans to defeat them.

If those fools (the current batch of demos) ever regain power i do not EVER want to hear the word partisan again. I want NOTHING to ever go the republikkkans' way ever again. They've proven who they are. Fucking Nazis.

(/progressive)

When was the last time the Democrats held 50+ percent in both houses to pass legislation without needing to cooperate? Believe it was Obama for 2 months in 2009. So all complaining about this for the last decade has been moot.

Even if we ever get that again, people will be sorely disappointed because legislation will be too busy fixing damages from the previous administration to make much actual progress. Which will be forgotten by the next election (same as it ever was).
In 2048 Reagan's ghost will still haunt the country, plus Trump's ghost too.
We had exactly 60 seats for all of like two effective weeks in 2009, due to various issues. And not only that, a good portion of the dems in that coalition were blue dogs - senators from IA, ND, IN, and MO.
People acting like we've had 30+ Bernies in the caucus are weird.
- We're poopooing Obama having the largest majority since reconstruction? Come the fuck on. What have the Republicans been doing with way less "power"? Democrats are useless.
- It seems like that’s exactly the point, progressive democrats are very few and not even that progressive except for a few outliers.
And what the fuck did Obama do with those 2 months?

True indeed. But here's my counterpoint:

Fucking nazi in power who take away all the liberties you have given for granted.

So... which truth do you prefer?

The dems are entirely lame while in office.

That's still LEAGUES better than the genocidal fascists of the GOP.

Maybe if you want progressive reforms, stop bitching and vote for progressives in the primaries. Not that it'll matter now since millions let the fascists win so we won't have any elections any more.

And the dems aren't genocidal? Give me a break. People forget the genocide started and was aided by Biden. Before him people forget that all presidents (including Obama) had the same foreign policy of bombing brown people.
The dems dropped the ball in the 2024 election, by pretending Biden was sharp as a tack and gaslighting us about his mental health until they couldn't hide it anymore during that disastrous debate, and since they lied about him so long, they replaced him with someone who flopped HARD in 2020 and lost the election in 2024.
I voted for Bernie Sanders in the primaries and watched as the DNC did everything they could to destroy him and install a good little establishment guy like Biden.
When Trump's a psychopath and the opposition keeps gaslighting us about the mental health of the president so long that they have no choice but to hand pick a replacement because it's too late for a primary, a lot of people are just going to say "fuck it" and not vote.
They're still being delusional and refusing to face facts. Hopefully they can learn from this.
- I get where the DNC fucked up.
  Everyone except the DNC acknowledges where they fucked up.
  Its the millions of leftist voters who are in a desperate need of self reflection for how they fucked up by boycotting the election.
  Millions of marginalized peoples' loves were at stake with the 2024 election, both domestically and abroad. People who leftists are supposed to care about, advocate for, and pico the best VIABLE option for, which was Kamala.
  Boycotting Kamala wasn't "sticking it to the Dems". It was deatroying the future and lives of the millions of marginalized people the boycotting left abandoned to fascism.
  Its extremely easy for those in pirivelge, be it financial, racial, sex, gender, etc, to look at Kamala by herself and proclaim she was a shitty candidate. She was, objectively.
  But 2024 wasn't about Kamala, it was about millions of people who now have ICE and the military dissapearing them, and canceling elections nation wide in 2026 and on.
  We cannot keep pretending everything that's happening was an unknown. We were warning people about P2025 for over a year, but self righteous egomaniacal leftists either didn't listen, didn't believe it, or simply don't actually give a fuck about the marginalized people now being sent to concentration camps.
Keep blaming a 1% of internet leftists for not voting a genocide supporter out of principle instead of the establishment for running Ms. "We will build the deadliest armed forces in the world during an ongoing genocide that I support".
Bernie was the compromise, and the dem establishment essentially antidemocratically couped him out. Now the dems deal with the consequences: they'd rather see Trump in office than a progressive (look at the collabbing between dems and reps in derailing Mamdani).
- Keep blaming a 1% of internet leftists for not voting a genocide supporter out of principle instead of the establishment for running Ms. "We will build the deadliest armed forces in the world during an ongoing genocide that I support".
  TRUMP IS ACTIVELY COMMITTING MORE GENOCIDE AND ON US SOIL.
  BOYCOTTNG VOTING BLUE OBJECTIVELY ENABLED MORE FUCKING GENOCIDE
  Get it through your thick fucking skull that you people chose the PRO-GENOCIDE option.
  No one should ever take you people seriously ever again. We have MORE GENOCIDE NOW because KAMALA LOST AND TRUMP WON.
  Wanna know how we'd have ended up with less genocide?
  LEFTIST COULD'VE VOTED FOR KAMALA AND MADE HER WIN.
- Keep blaming a 1% of internet leftists
  I know we’re just throwing numbers around here but wasn’t the margin like 1%?
