This is why I'm a leftist not a lib. I vote Democrat bc no choice but I want more progressives in office....
You're not getting them because that's not what the ruling class wants from the DNC.
Then stop voting for libs
Better than voting for gqp. I vote progressive in primaries and forced into the other bc no one has the spines to fix the system to ranked elimination voting. I'm leftist bc at least they're not actively trying to unalive me like the right
They'll just kneel in Solidarity with you as the right tries to unalienable you.
Progress.
That's the moderates of the "left" that's actually the right lol
Those are your progressives, honey.
You probably believe a bunch of countries are communists or socialists despite their leaders preventing them actually going there fully. Once you have a dictator or similar leader it defeats the purpose 🤣
Imagine being mad enough to double comment
Hahaha no. The moderates are conservatives in sheep's clothing. Nice try tho
Hahaha Pelosi, Biden and others a progressive? You need to Google shiz, it's free. They're centrists and moderates at best. They don't belong to actual leftist and progressive ideology and no one on this side claims them. Good try tho
Sure, while also compromising with the gqp to destroy the effectiveness of any legislation. Her especially needs to freaking retire, yall need to stop with these logical fallacies. Her, rbg and the rest of the moderates over the years have done absolutely NOTHING to actually help people not be in danger from the gqp and their followers. Esp in my state. Do some damn research and stop this bs of calling these moderates what they aren't 🤣
Sounds like you need to put your money where your mouth is and vote harder for the defenders of our democracy
and not undermine it by supporting radical leftists like Mayor Pete you red-fascist tankie
No you don't understand, their alternative is not to vote red, the alternative is not to vote and then complain that the results are fucked because no metter what they voted it would be fucked so they need a revolution, blood will flow, yada yada.
I get that but I'd rather vote and revolution at the same time. Not voting gives the gqp more power imo and just ugh 😑
I agree, I also think that not voting is the same as voting to whoever wins, since effectively it does the same thing. I was just trying to explain you their viewpoint.
As someone else posted on this site
"there are two types of democratic voters, centrist conservatives and hostages"
I mean yea sounds about right. The moderates are wolves in sheep's clothing. Esp when they randomly flip parties and screw us over on rights and encourage the gerrymandering to get worse 🙃
There's progressives, as well as a good breakdown of demsocs. You can be pleasantly surprised about some parts of Biden's presidency without being a centrist conservative who would have had him near the top of your list
