What era in time do these people think R’s are trying to conserve to, after or before civil rights?

    People need to stop treating this like team sports. If a party does not represent you then don’t vote for them. It’s really that simple.

      Oh yeah? Well you say that because your team is shit!My team is a multiple-time genocide winner, and went several times in the finals for racism and segregation and is probably still one of the best for transphoby, homophoby and misogyny. Go fascists!

      The Democrats don’t represent most of the people who vote for them, either. They’re just not nearly as bad as Republicans.

        Which is why, while I do vote democrat, I am not a democrat. Their interests are more aligned with mine than the republicans, even though they might as well both be on the god damn moon.

        People identifying so strongly with some political party like this is so weird and disgusting, regardless of party.

        In Europe, where there’s typically way more choice, the candidate I usually end up voting for isn’t necessarily the greatest. It’s the least bad realistic choice available. Because that’s how democracy works, there aren’t great candidates anyway. Just vaguely better choices.

        It’s everywhere. Portuguese here and I tell you, I can’t remember the last election I voted for who I actually wanted. Now is just the neo nazis pushing and people like me voting for the lesser evil because if we don’t we are screwed.

          This is everything. When I go to my local pizza joint, I’m picking the least bad option. What I really want is to fly to Sicily and get the same one I had there before, but that’s not an option.

        That’s the next level. First we need to get people to stop voting against themselves.

      That’s… that’s kinda a damning statement on the democrats as well. But double so in this case

        Yeah. The only reason politicians get away with not actually representing us is because we don’t demand it.
