    It depends entirely on whether the Dems are capable of responding to criticism or whether they do their usual la la la can’t hear you.

    The problem with obediently voting for the least worst option is that you end up with no good options. Being marginally better than a fascist is not enough. They need turnout and if they want turnout they need to stop fucking over their voters.

      You act like Dems voters are a monolith.

      The problem with obediently voting for the least worst option is that you end up with no good options.

      And how is this going to generate another option?

        I referred to a political party, not its voters.

        And, wtf? Are you such an obedient voter that you do not care what they are offering as long as they’re wearing the right colour? Come the fuck on.

          Fuck, no. But what the fuck else should we do? Let Trump fuck us over just because Biden sucks? I do not like Biden, either, but I DETEST Trump with every fiber of my being.

          Quit the “both sides” bullshit.

            You’re reading “both sides”?

            Work on your reading comprehension. This sort of braindead centrism should have died 8 years ago
