Uft. RBS has been swinging some no-hitters lately.
How do people not get at this point that the Dems are only responsive to right wing/fascist voters and they're not very responsive to them.
It doesn't matter if we say "I won't vote" or "I will vote" or "I will vote, but on this condition", the Dems are going to do the same bullshit regardless, and it's going to suck and make everything worse and legitimize the actions of the fash regardless.
Like what's this even supposed to mean? Yeah, we're not going to work with them, they've fucked us over, betrayed everyone we care about, and are driving us off a cliff to our doom. The GOP is technically doing that faster, but neither offers any opportunity to stop either of those things from happening. And if we don't work with them? They'll still do the exact same thing.
Idfk, like what the fuck do people want with us? Like bruh just stop being a shitty little wimp and stuff the ballot box if you need more votes. You don't need us. The only thing holding you back from victory is your absurd insistance of following bs rules only in regards to your conduct with the fascists.
Like all we are to them is warm bodies capable of casting a vote, and they firmly believe they own that hour or six hours or whatever the fuck it takes to cast a vote, and they're outraged they're being denied what they own. Negotiation? Compromise? Consessions? Impossible. They'd much rather lose "The most important election of our lives", again, than give up anything at all no matter how petty. And from what I recall there's never been enough of us to matter, they always lose doing some absolutely stupid shit, like picking Hildawg in the first place or not visiting key states or just being weird fucking ghouls on a hot mic.
Like they're bitching at us for not saving Roe when Obama just... didn't push a law on abortion, he didn't seat a SCOTUS justice, he liquidated the entire Democrat national street level operation, he didn't have Bader-Ginsburg put in a home, he didn't do anything. He sat in the White House playing basketball for four years.
They lionize RBG when she fucked everyone with the stupidest and most childish display of supreme hubris, then self-owned by dragging her cancer riddled corpse to officiate a wedding during a world-historic pandemic she was uniquely vulnerable too.
Even if it didn't matter, a bunch of Democrats still voted to confirm Crying Neal for no reason I can see.
Like they have all the cards, all the power, control over the institutions, guns, drugs, money, lawyers, cops, and god knows what else. Like fine, you want my vote? Slip me a thousand bucks under the table. Ferry a bunch of trans people out of the South. Pass literally any good legislation. Call off the cops from beating the shit out of us. Do anything. Make any concession. Buy some fucking votes. Commute a bunch of convictions. Release some political prisoners.
But nothing. They won't do shit. They just yell at us. Shit, they're still yelling at Nader.
Fuck, the last significant major interaction I had with the democratic party was when they rolled armored cars in to my neighborhood and stationed five thousand soldiers, making Minneapolis the most heavily occupied city in the world for a few days, to crush any possibility of an uprising if the cop who murdered Mr. Floyd was released. Like bro, maybe don't point rifles at me to protect the gang of murderers, rapists, and thieves terrorizing my neighborhood if you want my support?
idfk. It's infuriating, doubly so because even if they win by a good margin they still won't do anything good or fix anything. Like ffs they had the entire ballot drop out to triangulate against Bernie in the last election in order to get a senile Southern Democrat racist shitbag directly responsible for most of the worst domestic crises in to power.
Like seriously what the fuck is this? The pussy-hat crowd went out for abortion rights and the Democrats did nothing. ABSOLUFUCKINGLUTELY NOTHING. Half of them wouldn't shut up about building a big tent with Christian Fascist anti-abortion freaks for the last ten years. They just sat back and watched and let Roe die. Biden is on the record being anti-Abortion. Fucks sake. At least a dog will bite you if you beat it enough, a democrat is too loyal for that.
They ignore everything about Jim Crow Joe. Just all the horrific shit he's done and the millions of lives he's ruined, they just deploy this incredibly powerful see no evil field around one of the most destructive political actors of the 20th and 21st century in US politics and hold him up as a solution to the problems he literally enthusiastically caused. It's incredible.
Hot take - Liberal Democracy is a mind devouring horror from beyond the stars that destroys hope and turns it's victims in to mindless democrozombies. It's hilarious that the only people who believe in Democracy are the ones who constantly get fucked by it.
The US doesn't even have liberal democracy, the person with the most votes can lose an election relatively easily, it has no parliament, the courts are inherently political in their appointments at the highest level. The US is a republic with democracy taking a backseat to capital at all times.
Seriously, like actual political parties have mechanisms to discipline their members and hold them to a party line. That’s the whole point is to have them vote as a block.
That's one thing that really frustrates me. Where is the off-ramp from voting for evil? Sure, the Democrats may be less obviously evil than the GOP, but so what? It's a death of a thousand cuts, we still end up in the same place - A burning planet, trans genocide, fascism. The Dems haven't done anything to stop it or slow it down. So what's the plan? When do we stop voting for evil? When do we switch from the lesser evil to the greater good?
And of course there isn't a plan. It's just dogma. There's just their ideological, quasi-religious faith in the American Civic Religion.
Last I chatted with a lib about it they said it was my fault for not voting for in 2016. See Trump won and he installed the justices that ended abortion and it's my fault Trump won so actually the Dems did literally everything they could.

Yeah this is what I always try telling them. Why are Dems trying to shame socialists of all people into voting with them? There are barely any of us and we're already too stubborn to vote Democrat, so why are they bothering? Republicans don't give a shit about this vote shaming, they just make shit up or redraw districts or get illegal amounts of money from billionaire oil ghouls.
Democrats don't even care about their own rules, you're right. They'll gladly cannibalize themselves at any sign there's a leftward shift among party members. They'll spread racist rumors about their own senators. They'll call their most progressive politicians misogynists or antisemites before they'd ever dare offering the same criticisms against Republicans.
Man I hate liberal politics in this country so much, it's exhausting

Love the fact that libs just ignore that Sleepy Joe is a self-described "devout catholic".
We all know why he doesn't give a shit about reproductive rights.

USAmericans are the most heavily indoctrinated people on the planet, and yet they can not stop screeching about mUh fReEdOm

According to most European standards, the US also doesn't have actual parties.
