      We need some sort of cleverly worded campaign to say “without Ranked Choice Voting (or similar), there can be no true democracy.”

      I’m sure some grassroots stuff could get off the ground for that in many states. Just need people to understand WHY it’s so important to leave First Past the Post behind.

    Don’t you know what happens domestically and abroad historically doesn’t impact me, and I am therefore required by law to disregard all of it as other people problems? Trump does impact me though, so if you don’t do the one thing I think will stop him you’re complicit in every single thing he does moving forward.

      On one side a bunch of bad shit. You might be able to get made a little less bad.

      On another, worse versions of ALL above bad shit, PLUS the literal destruction of all rights and hope and change going forward.

      I absolutely blame you, because you factually destroyed hope of change because you were butthurt.

      Bruh literally wants to defending a party who loses every election they step to the right on.

      like, do you want to win or do you want the democrats to stay right? You have to pick.

        Democrats prefer losing, it lines their pockets in donations and Republicans don’t take them. Republicans kill the public, not the Democrats. So why would they ever care about the public? Winning doesn’t make them money.

          You aren’t wrong.

          Democratic consultants made more on 2024 than any election previous. Spent something like 1.5 billion dollars on stupid shit catering to either a) shitlibs/liberals who were always going to vote for them or b) republicans who were never going to vote for them.

          Remember when lemmings were trying to gaslight us that going on “Call Her Daddy” was somehow going to win her the election.

          She lost 6% of the voters who showed up for Biden. And Biden would have lost more. All because its more important for them to keep the party conservative than it is to win elections.

            The DNC wants to pretend to fight so when they vote yes on Trump’s demands they can say it’s not a lie on ads when it’s time for fundraising.

            I have given up any hope on the national organization. They have promised basic, normal things then gave up on it.

            They didn’t even try to arrest Trump. How? How did they fail to even attempt to arrest the most obvious treason in the 21st century? It’s just basic logic to arrest the people who break laws.

            Or abortion like we were promised. Or legalizing canabis. Or student loan forgiveness. Or monthly checks. Or Biden being one term and never promising to run… Or…

      Yeah the bathwater was filled with the blood of dead babies by US bombs. Sorry you don’t get to splash around in it Elizabeth Báthory.
