MODERATORS
I never said they do. I just don’t think this is the time to overhaul the whole system when the first priority should be to steady the ship. You can’t fix things if you’re just struggling to stay afloat. Fixing things requires a certain level of stability.
Dems aren't steadying shit, they're taking up space that could be used by someone to do something useful.
"I just don’t think this is the time to overhaul the whole system"
how do you contend encouraging political stability overhauling the system?
"the first priority should be to steady the ship.
steadying the ship is literally what this protest is about, providing stability while the executive branch is trying to conquer and invalidate the judicial and legislative.branches.
"You can’t fix things if you’re just struggling to stay afloat."
yes you can. That's what SOS calls, bilge pumps, pontoons, tar, patches and welds are for, to fix problens on boats.
you're advocating to give up and sink when you can repair things.
ridiculous.
"Fixing things requires a certain level of stability."
the necessary level of stability is far below what you clearly misunderstand.
We have that stability, what we need is political, legal and judicial actions liked the ones happening every day now fighting against the executive branch.
The literal nationwide protests by tens of thousands of citizens, judges, politicians and lawyers constitute that saving grace.
Be me
Paramedic
Patient is very sick, circling the drain
Oh God oh fuck I can't treat them and stabilize them, they're unstable
haha, great example.
"Sadly, there's nothing we can do. Our training, available equipment, medications and infrastructure are only for stable patients."
Send it BLS next time.
Dude, that's all they ever send.
So when is the time? The midterms? The presidential election?
Reforming the democrats in four easy steps:
Now's not the time
Not this year
This is really a bad time, okay?
Definitely not this year, are you crazy?
