You know what would help defeat fascism? Actual effort to put a stop to it instead of sanitizing how badly they are failing at doing it.

Exactly. Massaging optics & pretending they aren't inept is literally moving the needle in the wrong direction.

Follow Texas Paul. When you’re the minority, you can be loud like Rep Jasmine Crockett (bless her) but there’s v little power 𝓽𝓸 𝓭𝓸 𝓪𝓷𝔂𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓷𝓰. And 𝓪𝓷𝔂 𝓫𝓵𝓾𝓮 𝓹𝓸𝓵 is better than the GOP. We can’t suppress the vote by making people discouraged.

The party approval rating is self explanatory. Instead of glazing wannabes 3 years ahead of time, you should focus on demanding stronger contenders who aren't willing to fund genocide, or betray marginalized communities, if you're actually worried about alienating voters.

No thanks. And no, actually, this mindless blue cult bullshit & willingness to support transphobes & Zionists in order to "win" is what's making people discouraged. This isn't celebrity worship, it's about POLICY. I give zero fucks about what colour their tie is.

I'm not interested in buying a 4 year illusion of normalcy, only for the fascists to capitalize on another term of stagnant, ineffective policy, while Dems line their pockets with AIPAC money.

Or instead of getting canned opinions from out of touch people I can observe the reality Here it is. The Democrat establishment values its billionaire donors more than its supposed base. Doing this has lost them the election. They are about to be shit canned in the mid terms Because they’re useless

Again, follow Texas Paul. Campaigns take 💰. You’d prefer that all the billionaire 💰 goes 2 power the other side? This is realpolitik time. You can take the cash & still vote 4 Democratic goals like voting rights & civil rights & healthcare. And maybe a way 2 claw back those tax cuts 4 the mega-rich.

Texas Paul is a well meaning, out of touch goober. 🙄 You are undermining your own limited credibility by continuing to cite him as a source of insight. If you want Leftists to not vote, keep doing what you're doing. 🤦‍♂️ Muting you for my own mental health.

Do you ever listen to him? He’s a progressive Democrat fighting in Texas. By denigrating people who actually promote progressive Democrats on their lives, 𝔂𝓸𝓾 are undermining everyone.

How? They have no power to create laws. They have no power to back up the court decisions. They have no power over the deployment of the National Guard. Tell me one thing you think that they have the power to do right now?

Do you read with comprehension?! You have to have the 𝓿𝓸𝓽𝓮𝓼 in the House & in the Senate to get things done. That means Democrats in seats. You seem to want to bitch & moan & not do anything & make 𝓼𝓾𝓻𝓮 that there’s no way to salvage anything. What action plan do 𝔂𝓸𝓾 have?

How can they get those votes if they can’t get people to vote for them you insufferable imbecile? They don’t need to massage their message. Their message sucks that’s why they keep losing.

I already have you a plan. Actually do what their base wants instead of what the billionaires want.

You may not like this reality but the dems are acting like they are owed votes. Even when in power they do nothing to earn them. They full throatedly supported a genocide. They tried to put racist the anti immigrant right. They are throwing trans and gay people under the bus to win votes.

Did you really not see how they lost the last election? It was because they ignored their base and brown nosed their donors. They don’t need trump to beat them. They beat themselves.
