If Republicans didn't have majority then there wouldn't be any DNC making difficult choices. Not voting for democrats is exactly what caused this problem you're supposedly outraged by.
"Difficult choices"? How difficult is it for democrats to cave to republicans? At this point, it's reflex. It's not a difficult choice to yawn when you see someone else yawn.
I've held my nose and voted for the Democrats my entire adult life, including mid-terms. Guess I just gotta take it up the ass like the good rube that I am, since the Democrats don't know how to win.
Primary them. The primary is where a protest vote actually matters. It’s where you’ll get the opportunity to replace your dem with a BETTER candidate instead of a worse one in the general election.
Provided the primaries are trustworthy. Or exist at all.
I agree. What really disheartened me and cemented them as "Corpo-fascist Lite" was the DNCs fuckery against Bernie Sanders and his willingness to let the chairwoman and Hillary get away with it.
Why are you ashamed at yourself for doing the correct thing? Likening yourself to a cuck surrendering to rape because you voted for your own wellbeing and that of others?
I'm not seeing the connection here. Maybe keep your weird sexual fantasies out of politics, or start assigning blame where it deserves to be.
Voting to give genocide support a mandate is not the correct thing to anyone but centrists.
I was speaking figuratively, dummy. The "blame" for the inability to win lies upon the corporatist/"fascist-lite" DNC and their sycophants and cronies. Especially considering that in the last election, they had the largest campaign war-chest in recorded history and still lost. They've continuously paid lip-service to the working class and now they wonder why ~~they lose~~ they're hated.
This is an Atroturf if I've ever seen one. You literally praise the GOP and insult the DNC in one breath, even accuse the DNC of corporatism lmao like have you not followed politics at all in the last 35 years?
When did I "literally praise the GOP"? Are you high?
No, they just want silence from all critics to their left so they can listen to the critics to their right.
YOU are the one that brought up the weird sexual fantasies, only to blame them on him. Calm down.
Thats what that "lifelong Democrat" has to say about voting for the DNC.
It's a figure of speech.
Words have meanings, chooae better words if they don't mean what you want.
Ironic.
