    Wild how often it’s the case of dems in power being terrible.

    I see some love for AOC (but also insta-damnation if dog forbid she hews incorrectly), Mamdani got a lot of love (for a city mayor) at least until he made the fatal error of crossing a SocDem, and Bernie gets love. But that’s it. 99.8% of Democrats are the worst, most evil fascists under the sun according to their support base. If you believe that.

    Is it any wonder they look to the center for support when it gets close to election time?

    Also so does that mean we can’t say trump/putin/bibi is terrible without specifying an alternative?

    For the first 100 slams, no those are free. After that you have to have something else besides a big bag of bitching. But only for trump, unless you’re voting in the israeli or russian election.

    Which, sometimes I wonder if some of the commenters are.

      Yeah cause they don’t want to actually provide anything the people want.

      And unsurprisingly again avoiding the point to continue to just punch left

        What like national healthcare? A Green New Deal? Yeah The People din’t want that shit they want to murder children, right?

        What point? Democratic candidates are depraved existential horrors roaming the land devouring women and children alive for sport? Sure lemme google some things i’ll get back to you.

        The so-called left can’t even be relied upon to vote against literal paramilitary gangs roaming the streets murdering mothers and nurses. That’s who you want them to spend all their political capital chasing? Well, good luck. But just so you know they’re not going to vote anyway. Purity tests are real and they are unwinnable.

          Weird how neither parties run on that

          Wow, amazing how you’re only point is blaming the voters.

          Again, both parties were okay with that. There wasn’t one who would stop it

            Well, one party ran on the first part multiple times making a big push for it that took up a full year in two administrations, and actually made the second one law, so. Get a clue?

            Wow, amazing how you’re only point is blaming the voters.

            I’m blaming the non-voters. Keep up.

            Again, both parties were okay with that. There wasn’t one who would stop it

            The DHS is still shut down. Do you actually know how anything works? Because it’d be great if you could do that.
