    I think you really overestimate the “both parties are the same” group/impact. The Dems need to do more to capture and inspire votes. Stop blaming people for not voting for them. You’re supposed to earn their vote with good policy. It’s not good enough to just be not as shite as the republicans.

      Okay.

      How do you propose Democrats accomplish things while stonewalled by Republicans?

        I mean there’s a thousand different executive actions Biden could’ve taken at this point? Maybe a better platform to run on that inspires hope a bit better. Christ, I really don’t understand the ball-licking of these neo-liberal politicians like they’re gods gift. Are you all out of your minds?

        Absolutely anything to inspire better than this limp dicked nonsense. It’s a bunch of corporatist twats bowing to company interests at every turn.
