Somehow I am always surprised by Dem incompetence. Giving up the game this obviously is deeply silly.
Its not incompetence lol. Its just them being a really effective controlled opposition and doing what the rich want. This wasnt an "error" it was the plan.
Exactly, paraphrasing from another tweet I saw: "Weird how these errors never happen when it's a weapons shipment for Israel"
I legitimately believe it's a mix of both. Harder to feign resistance when you give up any appearance of it, this is both planned and entirely obvious.
The purpose of a system is what it does
Yep, not trying to say this wasn't planned, but that if this is their excuse they are terrible at hiding it.
At this point I'm indifferent about which it is because it doesn't matter, I'll hate them for being incompetent just as much as I'll hate them for being complicit
Absolutely, they are complicit dogs of empire and terrible at pretending otherwise.
I think there's an element of spite to it. They want to punish voters for failing them and they want voters to know it.
Never attribute malice to what can be explained by serving the interests of Capital. The Dems make good money by feigning resistance, I think they showed their hand a bit obviously this time.
They showed their hand so obviously on purpose. It's too obvious to be anything other than intentional.
And that serves the interests of Capital too. It's prole control, put them in their place and remind them that Capital is in charge.
"this is what you wanted, tankies!" dude, you all are still in power
