This is a shit take. ALL Rs voted for this. No dems NEEDED to vote for this for it to pass, but some did. If we want to make the Dem party an acutal progressive party, then these Nazi pieces of shit need to be primaried. This doesn't make all Dems nazis...

It's a shit system but you aren't going to change it by 1) not voting and 2) generalizing.

Vote. For individuals. Not because they are Dem, but because you've dug into a candidate and found them to match your beliefs.

Fix your attitude, or the progressives will never make it.

This is a dumbass take.

Please explain how "both sides are the same" =/= "whatabought the other team"

There is almost never a third option.

One side can be shamed, and sometimes even does a good thing. The other side..... 99.9% turbo evil.

Guillotines will not make life better. North Korea ended up with work camps and famine. China ended up with work camps and famine. The Soviet Union ended up with gulags and famine. See the trend?

Even France, the OG, Ended up with the Terror, then Napoleon, and they were so traumatized they went back to monarchy.

Calls for Guillotines are calls for mass death and usually secret police and famine. Nobody can ensure that the "right" people will suffer the violence and you definitely can't promise that only the guilty will suffer from the secret police and starvation.

If you think the status quo is as bad or worse than the terror I welcome you to kick it off. There are plenty of other Mario characters we can name you after.

I'm one of the stupidest men alive and even I have more awareness of the state of US politics than most American liberals. You mention that 'vote blue no matter who' is the height of idiocy and receive responses about how not voting is for idiots.

Of course it is, because not voting isn't the suggestion being made, but it certainly is a useful straw man for the absolute broomsticks who can't swallow the fact their beloved Democrats are just as complicit in the American political charade.

considering most of the Ds are actually DInos, AND NOT "democrats", its just mostly 1 uniparty. they have AOC, and bernie thats about how much they will allow in the party, and another platform said, aoc and bernie is likely only in the CONGRESS because they take the heat off the gop/DNC so thier parties dont get taken over by more "progressive/leftist" candidates. why do you think they railed on Madmani(butchered his name) so hard, it something they dint APPROVE.

both parties make backdoor deals that never reaches the MSMs, likely they compromise on somethings to make it look like they are fighting against each other.

Bingo. There is no left party in the US, despite what MAGA has been brainwashed to believe. And, a giant issue in the US is having two parties only.

And no, it's not that both parties are the same across the board. That's a libertarian cop-out. There are clear policy differences.

However, one issue which unites both parties is money. Both parties are bought and sold by corporations, and that needs to be handled. Crucially: there is no system in place to allow voters to correct this.

I guess we just need to vote D harder. 🤣😭

There is nothing wrong with making a career out of politics. Like any other business, the system operates better with experienced, knowledgeable people operating it. We are currently seeing the results of amateurs in office.

The difference is between Good Faith and Bad Faith politicians. I'll take a Good Faith politician like Bernie for decades, while I am happy to see a Bad Faith guy like Fetterman gone after one term.

But blue no matter who! The lesser of two evils! No one is perfect! Do you want Trump to win!? Disingenuous argument that tries to cover for how shitty neo-liberals are.
