    I mean, I generally agree with you, but like most things this isn’t black and white. It’s a nuanced thing that needs to be handled with care. I get it; Large movements are terrible at nuance.

    While we’re two years out from the start of the campaign, we can certainly encourage the Dems to find an actual progressive.

    Hillary was better than Newsom. It’s funny that California Dems are blasted as the most liberal, when they might be the most conservative Dems outside of West Virginia.

    Yes, anything is better than fascism. That point was more important 18 months ago, and might be more important again 12 months from now.

    It’s also important how you say what you have to say. Dems are absolutely not the ones to blame for all this shit. Not doing enough is not the same as directly causing the disaster.

        remove fascism vs keep fascism seems pretty “black and white” to me.

        Democrats don’t even want to defund ICE. How are they removing fascism?

            I already vote for democrats all the way down ballot for every election, now what? How about democrats do their fucking job and actually try to get elected instead of demanding we settle for fascism-lite or else we get fascism?

        “find an actual progressive” aka 3rd party

        lol no. You don’t get to strawman and then be a rude piece of shit about it.
