The question has been framed in the streets: is a government that impoverishes healthcare and nutrition, flouts the law, enriches its officials, imprisons babies, and kills its citizens worth the money it collects, much less the respect and obedience it demands?
Democrats have nothing to lose by shutting down the government to force the majority party to respond to these questions and the one that looms over all: what, if any, is the political and moral future of the US?



Specially the RNC branch of the DNC. Specially important to not allow people with repeated last names or family ties to be president. There’s plenty of last names that haven’t had a turn at being president. Also we need a woman president and quick!
There is no RNC branch of the DNC.
Are you serious?
Very serious. The RNC branch with all their ballot conspiracy and murderous actions should step aside so that someone can fix their mess. Like when Gramps spills a glass of milk on the table because he soiled himself. Grandpa RNC just needs his fox news and a few pills. The rest of us gotta clean that shit up and move on…don’t let Gramp’s back in the kitchen. The shit economy is going to shit because of the RNC branch. Hopefully we get women candidates that are not crazy pedophiles. No more white guys for president unless we vote for them… We as in all of us not some representative assholes that the RNC can just gerrymander to get the votes they need. Stay out of the government and out of our neighborhoods.
The “evil DNC” ran two women. Progressives refused to vote for either. Funnily enough, an old white man did win.
What ballot conspiracy?
Again, what?
I find it amusing when old age suddenly becomes no big deal when we’re talking about Bernie.
The economy is shit because of Republicans and their idiotic tariffs. It was growing under Biden, not really sure how this criticism makes sense.
And yet progressives have hated Biden since always. The constant racism disguised as “gaffes from crazy uncle Joe-- he just doesnt understand that he’s flirting with KKK types” and his authoring civil asset forfeiture to pantomime some tough on crime shtick, and his money stream form AIPAC showed anyone that was paying attention that he was an absolute idiot. Sure some progressives votes for him in 2000 to get rid of trump, but that was because they had little choice in the matter. The “uncommitted” vote in 2024 in the dem primary was all progressives too.
Hillary lost because of the rage around her shanking Bernie in the primary. Kamala lost because she wouldnt disavow her support for genocide and flirting with right wingers to keep progressive voices down. if you want to distill that down to simply them being female and no other reason, I guess good luck with that-- live in whatever fantasy world you need to in order to keep from experiencing any cognitive dissonance. I’m beyond caring about other peoples accusations. This is a “you” problem.
