    Americans will never see any real progress in their lifetimes as long as the Democratic party in its current incarnation stands intact.

    Conservatives are by their nature evil and reactionary, but also simultaneously eternal and temporary. They are a society’s dead skin being shed before the new form emerges, its coremoved of petulant narcissism refusing to accept reality.

    The problem with neoliberal Democrats is that they don’t realize that they’re conservative too, and as such must be shed.

      Blaming Dems, when we could have had so much progress because of them since 2000 if gore had been granted his win, is the reason we got trump.

      People and posts like you and yours are part of the problem. You spend all your energy fighting the only party trying to help you at all right now and for the past 25 years.

      This isn’t about Dems this is about shortsighted electorate like you.

      Calling neolibs conservatives is fucking hilarious and sad.

        if gore had been granted his win

        Yes, he was the actual winner

        Blaming Dems […] is the reason we got trump.

        Lol, lmao even.

        You spend all your energy fighting the only party trying to help you at all right now and for the past 25 years.

        Yeah they’ve been doing a bang up job of it.

        Literally every tactic employed by Trump could have been employed by a Dem who actually wanted to enact positive change, as well as expanding and packing the supreme court with loyalists. You know, if they didn’t have dementia and weren’t being “Weekend at Bernie’s’ed” by party functionaries.

        This isn’t about Dems this is about shortsighted electorate like you.

        “The Democrat Party can never fail, they can only be failed.”

        Calling neolibs conservatives is fucking hilarious and sad.

        I only wish I could see your face when you look up the word “neoliberal”

        Neoliberalism is right wing though, you have American brainrot. America is so far right wing (fascist) you cant even see it.

      Democratic party suddenly becomes a full-blown socialist party, complete with an anti-capitalist manifesto. Imagine

          IDK, Sanders did pretty well on that Fox News appearance. If suddenly there weren’t both sides telling people to hate the left, you might be surprised at the results.

          That’s what they thought about Trump back when. Turned out many people want to dismantle status quo

          You mean instead of the current plan of keeping control by corruption and cheating until Americans finally rise up and kill them all?
