    I have had so many conversations from casual progressive conspiracy theorists about how they think all the Democrats get together and agree on the fall guy (most recently, Manchin) to keep issues on the table indefinitely. You see it constantly with these Jill Stein people. I’ve literally told them the only solution is to give liberal Democrats the majority, which they haven’t had in my lifetime.

      Those ones are constantly spreading idiotic takes. “The Dems and Repubs have a ratchet effect towards evil. Therefore we should let the Repubs in to advance the ratchet.”

      The things they cite as Dems holding the country back are like always direct results of Repub SCOTUSes, too.
