There are no two major parties in the US .... it's all the same party

Why the fuck is one party treated differently then the other party?

If they are the fucking same they would advocate for same shit and vote alone the same lines... that doesn't fucking happen.

The moral high road is filled with corpses.

The problem was the DNC running sham primaries...

Neoliberals just got voted out of DNC leadership. And Martin just got two neoliberl superdelegates who sat on the committee that had been influencing primaries to completely leave the DNC.

That is fucking huge. And everyone is just ignoring it, it even worse, acting like it's a bad thing.

The war over the Dem party is done. Neoliberals lost, Americans won.

Also I urge people to vote

It's funny that I see this exact same argument repeated frequently, regardless of which political leanings the forums I'm reading take.

There are bad actors out there seeking to torment good people until they snap and actually internalize the idea that behaving poorly, deliberately, is a good idea. They don't care one bit what you believe, only that they don't like you and want you to hurt yourself.

Stay safe.

Watch CSPAN and read Congress.gov before criticizing the only people in our government trying to put a stop to this.

Democrats forced three 15-day votes against Trump’s executive orders, confirmed Biden’s pending judicial appointments when Republican attendance was low, publicly call out Trump’s overstepping of his powers and failure to uphold the Constitution, filed articles of impeachment against Trump, voted against deportations and tariffs, and are the ones bringing these cases to the courts. They DOA’d the only supermajority bills that the Republicans have introduced, including the SAVE Act, which would have disenfranchised married women and trans people from voting. They held four 24+ hour hearings, debating each provision of the reconciliation bill, line-by-line, just to get Republicans on record defending each position. They have repeatedly called for Hegseth and Gabbard to step down, to their faces in congressional hearings, for reasons of incompetence and conflict of interest, respectively.

“Growing a spine” is contradictory to “going low”.
