We can't have primaries, we're told we're unelectable and only weirdos like us as they refuse to cover winning states, rig them, or just have it then have the nominee back out and place a new one in charge without a vote.

We can't criticize them on social media, we're call Russian assets, secret Trump supporters, and other thought terming cliches. I had someone tell me that because on Mastodon I was on todon.eu I must be a Russian bot, as Americans can't sign up for a website that ends .eu. As a leftist who voted for Biden.

We can't push them left in office, the midterms are too important, the president has different tasks than what the people who voted them into office want.

When are we allowed to critize them? It's not pre-election, it's not after-election, it's not in office. It just seems like we can't ask for anything better from them because we're somehow wanting the people who want to kill us win, when we are asking for healthcare reform and better education.
