    Or you know, people should just vote for who they want to vote for because the candidate lines up with their values. Even if YOU don’t like their candidate.

    You know, kinda like how a democracy should work!

        If we were to read the room, it reads like a fucking echo chamber. If Democrats want to earn votes, they need to start earning them. Otherwise we need to dilute the entire electoral process and maybe get some real progressive into office. For decades, we hear populist rhetoric around election time. And then they promptly drop the entire subject after the election. The DNC cannot be trusted, and they will betray us.

          I admire your idealism. Harris is the most progressive candidate the DNC is even willing to front and I bet they are doing that with clenched teeth.

          She’s voted with Bernie more often than anyone else so let’s see what she has to cook.

            It’s easy to sound progressive when you don’t have the power or the ability to enact the things that you support. Much like when she ran, she supported a livable minimum wage. and then blamed its failure to pass on an unelected parliamentarian. She’s claimed to have supported universal health care, or M4A. until she didn’t in the middle of a pandemic.

            When an unelected parliamentarian tried that during the Bush administration, the Senate fired that unelected parliamentarian. It’s not their job to decide what congress has the ability to pass

              So by that standard, isn’t your ideal independent pick even more so lacking the power to implement their ideals? Pretending it actually happens, they’d have literally zero party support in the house or senate, meaning they’d have infinitely less chance of enacting any of their promises.

        You are having several comments removed because you are being uncivil.

        Stop being a bully, please. There are rules in this sub that you are breaking by speaking that way to me.

        Then maybe you should block me or at least stop interacting with me if you are so frustrated by my posts?

        Disagreeing with me because I have a different opinion than you is fine, but remember the civility rule for this sub, please. Thank you.

          No, I track the more dangerous accounts on purpose. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve blocked dozens of people but for you I get a notification. I don’t want to miss a single minute of your show.

            Being dangerous because they won’t contribute to your echo chamber, fear of losing the table scraps that you currently receive from your politicians? The real danger lies in those that will not hold politicians accountable, the ones that blindly obey everything that they are told to do.
