Your comment is in defence of Newsome, sorry you didn't read any other comments or posts in this thread before wading in, i guess?
Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
Coming from someone supporting a moderate dem, your comment is hysterical. "We've tried nothing and are all out of ideas" are the centrists you're defending. The only idea they ever have is to be more like republicans, which consistently fails. Like Gavin is trolling well, but that's all it is.

Didnt both of those people lose their elections to the clown currently in office? Seems like you are admitting that the crowd you dont like has more political intelligence than you.
Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
Im sure all you have is some other way of saying that the poor should suck it up and vote for their betters again, so im just gonna mute you. Good luck with the message of "let's get back to the status quo."

The congress that put up almost no resistance to any of his appointments? The one where members are dying from old age in enough numbers to sway votes? The congress that is still sending arms to Israel? Great, im sure they will get right on doing the right thing for the first time any day now

I didnt say no one was worried about it, I said, very clearly, that it isnt enough, multiple times.

So return us to exactly where we were before he took office, the place that led us directly here You are arguing for a return to normal, and there is no return to normal. Some dems will win in the safe blue districts, but they aren't persuading anybody with "wasn't it nice before?"
Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
Im saying that saying "save the change for later, we have democracy to save" is the same message the democratic party have told the working class for decades, and it, very clearly, is not currently working. But im sure trying again will work this time.
Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
Cant flip the house without promoting these things. Being not trump hasn't worked and democrats are at an incredibly low approval rating even with being the "opposing" party to fascism.
Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
You will not succeed in getting the government back without promoting this agenda is the point.

Polling wasn't telling her to call israel a terrorist state, it was telling her to support a complete arms embargo to the terrorist state. Polling was pretty clear, stop giving weapons to Israel (or just say it!), dont pal around with Liz Cheney, should have been real simple hurdles.

Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
I understand why people made that choice, it was a tough one for my partner and I, but we still place the blame exactly where it belongs: the DNC that tried to shove a senile old genocide lover through, then had to scramble to replace him and they went with just a young version of his worst politics
Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
But democrats (and Republicans because i need to address the obvious every tweet apparently) do not care about pedophiles, insurrectionists, or literally anything that benefits the dirty poor. You voting for the lesser evil all your life and saying you would never give pushback sure helped bud
Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes trump led an insurrection and bidens justice department did nothing with that because literally no pressure is ever put on billionaires to follow laws. He shouldn't have been able to run in the first place. He'll, looks like pedo trump is in the epstein files, they could have kneecapped him.

We were choosing between genocide and worse genocide. We didnt have democracy, we had and have an oligarchy.

Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
All things that were the moderate version of republicans, instead of anything for actual democrats or God forbid someone to the left of a Democrat. Voting lesser evil forever has led to the point where you are defending a genocide apologist. Im perfectly happy not to be doing that.
Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
Yeah, all the ones where she said she wouldnt stop sending weapons to Israel, where she would have a republican in her cabinet (reaching across the aisle with fascists!), where she would be the same as Biden, where she would make the military the most deadly in the world, and increase police budgets

Six states now have sent their national guard troops to Washington DC: West Virginia, South Carolina, Ohio, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Tennessee. This is much more boot-licking – it's a form of secession. It's a blatant and open secession from Democracy.

We have a better chance of keeping those seats by replacing dems that have lost their voters confidence. You screaming over and over again that we are at war doesnt make you Sun Tzu. Your strategy seems to be to not find the best dems, but to just not be Republicans (while also acting like them)

Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
Did you just ignore what I wrote? You can keep the seats by primarying ineffective dems, and you even increase turnout if a new candidate is exciting. Unify behind exciting candidates. Demanding support turns voters away. Earn the votes, or make way for someone who will.
Nick (@syngrey.bsky.social) reply parent
You can keep the seat with a primary, do you know how primaries work? You cant lose to a republican in a primary, the seat isnt up for grabs. If the incumbent is doing fine, there is nothing to worry about. If they lose the primary, probably a good thing they didn't run in the general.
