Between the House and the Senate, there are currently 258 Democrats in Congress.
And 224 of them are fascist collaborators.

Dems just making sure the 2 party system dies forever.
When I said I didn’t want a 2 party system, this isn’t what I meant!
Or maybe more accurately, the illusion of a two-party system.
"No way to prevent this, say the Democrats who are actively collaborating with the fascists"
The Democratic party is a party of cowards.
Most politicians are cowards.

The dnc is controlled opposition. We have to get actual progressives elected at local levels and it’ll be a fucking process but it’ll eventually make the party actual opposition
You'll have to throw Chuck Schumer into a retirement home (or a volcano) first.

We've been doing pretty good at that in Oregon in the Portland area especially, we got a fair few DSA people elected to the city council and to the state house in the last election. Although I doubt that will ever really convert the Dems into an actual progressive party, it's a lot more likely that the Democratic party dies with the rise of new progressive candidates and new progressive parties winning.

now it's on the voters to make some democrats disappear.
Start a new Party jfc
Lots of people are trying but it's not so easy to do. Our voting system is geared to only allow two parties and any actual third party that starts to gain traction gets shut down by the people with money and existing power. I don't think it's strictly impossible but I also don't think we can realistically pull it off. We need a solution outside the existing hierarchy imo

They didn't used to be this way, for some reason under Biden they went super anti-immigration
"For some reason."

Sigh, I see I can't trust my senator to do the right thing anymore. Edit: meaning he didn't sign it. POS trader.
Oh no, not the letter!!
Just shows how cowardly the Democrats are now. Most of them were afraid to sign a piece of paper that means literally nothing.
Pathetic.
Only?
I know we talk a lot of shit about Dems but I'm genuinely shocked that many signed off.
