Which makes it even dumber that Dems prioritize fundraising above the wishes of their constituency. Just look at how far to the right Kamala has been dragged by the donors, and marvel at the Dem strategists’ head scratching as to why she’s slipping in the polls. This system is totally broken for all but the rich and corporations.
imo, painting this as a ratio thing or a lib v conserv problem, is language that will not help to remove it. Money should not be a metric for policy whether aligns with your beliefs or not.
I agree, which is why I said you’re not wrong. But when focusing efforts, you need to know what you’re up against and not presume they’re all created equal.
Definitely. I’m not trying to be combative here either. This is a class issue and both established political parties operate through the means of their financial backers. Looking at this as “both sides are wrong” may be the best way to get a push for non-partisan resolution and actually get citizens u removed
You’re not wrong, but let’s not lose sight of the fact that the ratio is decidedly in favor of ultra-Conservatives

Tbh, I don’t see things the way you see them.
Ignore the polls. Know what’s at stake, like judicial reform, LGBTQ rights, climate action, women’s rights, etc.
Most importantly, show up and vote. It matters.

I mean, you’re the one who started this very thread with a “both sides” comment…
