No, what you implied is that people should vote for Democrats no matter what and just hope they happen to be progressive. You said the logic of voting third party led to the current administration, completely ignoring everything the democrats did to sabotage themselves and intentionally avoid providing a progressive candidate.

Where exactly did I imply that? I brought up AIPAC sponsoring particular candidates and pitched a progressive.

Yeah it was the other part of that comment that you conveniently didn't quote.. the whole fucking first half....

This logic will elect Republicans again and they will make the situation worse. There is no option where this stops unless we keep voting in progressives like we did in New York and New Jersey.

This part where I say

unless we keep voting in progressives

On a side note, dude, why do you have to be so mean about it. I'm a human being.

I'm sorry I didn't mean to say anything mean? What was it in particular that you found mean because im pretty neurodivergent.

You didn't say anything mean, they're being deliberately disingenuous
