  • "I'm probably going to die before my term is over, but I need to ratfuck the next generation of politicians so fascists get even more chance at fucking over more Americans."

    Might as well just vote yes on everything Trump says, Pelosi.

  • Wow I can't seem to figure out why Democrats keep losing elections

  • Because of course she is.

    The "Lessor evil" party folks.

    • I mean... Yes. They are less evil. Way less evil. It's not even close.

      Pelosi is a giant piece of shit, but she doesn't make the top 75% of conservatives.

      Also AOC is a goddamn gem. Conservatives have previously zero of those.

      Are Democrats anywhere near where I want to be? No. But I can't see how anyone could say they're the same.

      • There is a seemingly, almost intentional obtuseness to internal criticisms of the DNC from folks on the part of Democrats.

        Fundamental to why the right has been able to organize a fascist takeover of this nation is actions like this from the Democratic party. Fascism in this country wouldn't be ascendant if the DNC didn't rat-fuck Bernie, twice. Health care CEO's wouldn't be getting gunned down in the street if the DNC forced M4A instead of the corporate sellout of Obamacare in 2016. Trump would not have won if Democrats had focused their efforts and spent their political capitol on issues that would make a fundamental difference in peoples lived experience in the period of 2021-2024. We wouldn't be in this position if Democrats didn't slow walk the prosecution of Donald Trump, effectively sitting on their hands until an election year to start taking action.

        The state of this country is a direct consequence of the managerial class politics, which is all that the DNC has come to represent in a post 2024 world. They enable and empower the ratchet effect that allows the rightwing to become more and more fascist, because they are only ever willing to be a lessor evil.
