    Ok, I will abstain and allow the mass murdering child rapists to run the country instead!

      Right, because Biden did so much on those fronts. And because the dem platform plainly states they will take action on those things. Right?

          And you and every other centrist prefer a child rapist over letting people have the choice to vote for someone who might tell netanyahu no.

          Yep, he killed some of them too. And you can bet the republicans will destroy this country utterly. But Biden and the centrists are captured by genociders. Are we dick-measuring whats worse, is that what you want to argue?

      For real. The delusion that one can fully mobilize a political spectrum for an offering, like socialism, that is unavailable is always funny to me. Describe your steps. What steps should we follow to exhume ourselves from this hole without immediately rolling into an even deeper one?

        Simple, step one is regaining control of Congress this November.

        Literally nothing will get better if Republicans continue to control Congress.

        Step two is uncapping the House. There are already members of Congress with bills ready to go that would do just that.

        Those two items would fix about 75% of America’s problems.

          The DNC has shown time and again they will do nothing to roll back republican actions. Their ratchet effect doesnt allow for it. California has a bulletproof democrat supermajority and they cant get progressive legislation passed either, why should anyone believe more democrats at the federal level would be any different?

            So your plan for change is to do nothing and hope, or worse, keep Republicans in power so that they can actively make things worse. Sure.

              It’s not me that’s forcing the DNC to utilize their ratchet effect to prevent Republican actions from ever slipping back. They are the ones that are allowing it to keep getting worse.

              Your plan of change is to do nothing and yell at anyone who wants to do anything.

          We’ll see if that happens or if the party keeps doing everything it can to sabotage progressive candidates.
