    Would things be great under Democrats? No. Would things be NOT ENTIRELY THIS FUCKED right now? Fucking yes. There’s such a thing as progressing and we are not getting that by withholding votes and letting the literal Nazi side have full power

      Which we don’t fucking get with democrats. At best, we get the status quo. At worst, we get Nazi collaboration, which is what the current democrat party is. Nazi collaborators.

      Shut the fuck up with this lesser of two evils bullshit. The democrats are fascists as well, they just aren’t honest about it like the republicans are.

        just because you didn’t see your rights advance in your lifetime doesn’t mean some of us saw ours expand massively, solely under the democrats. they ain’t perfect, but at least they ain’t actively fighting us.

        All the Republicans and a handful of Democrats. So it’s obviously the D who are worse and to blame. #MurcsLaw

          It’s always just enough Democrats. If it weren’t these, it would be others. You’ll know the pattern changed when the party starts supporting primary challenges to the “defectors”.

          Where is the condemnation from Democratic leadership for those individuals? This is what the Democrats want, they just want it to be done in a quieter manner.

          It is thr joh of the democratic party to resist this. If they cant even get their own people to resist, it is either incompetence or it is willful and purposeful.

          In either case, they are failures and should not be voted for until they actually fight for the people

      But but I was promised that if I voted Jill Stein, I’d be teaching DNC a lesson!
