The DNC cited a procedural concern, but Hogg said it is “impossible to ignore the broader context” of his criticisms.

    How? We’ve voted blue no matter who for decades and look where it got us.

    Maybe democrats should do something to earn our votes.

      And if they don’t, who will be the ones suffering for it? It won’t be them.

          It’s more likely to be than letting fascists win, although a lot of work would have to be done primarying the corpos and getting progressives in there. That’s not even a possibility when the GOP has power.

            You don’t get it. YOU’RE letting the fascists win.

            Progressive policies are broadly popular. Corporate democrats are less popular than the least popular president in American history.

              No, voting for not-facists isn’t letting the fascists win. People voting for fascists and refusing to vote against them are. They may be doing it because the not-fascists suck, but the result is the same.

              People like you are the reason that we have a authoritarian fascist in power right now.

              Well done. Fucking dipshit.

                I voted for Harris. Look what good it did.

                Decade after decade of failure. But don’t examine yourself for a second.

                  There were clearly MANY who thought as you do who DID NOT vote at all.

                  How is that “teaching the Dems a lesson” going for them? Literally the most important election in the past 250 years and they managed to fumble it for us.

                  If anything, be mad a them. The Dems are crap too, but this is the political system we are in and it’s not changing without a raft of constitutional amendments that WILL NEVER happen. So you should vote against evil, every, god, damned, time.
