Which is why it’s a shame to see you fight each other as if that isn’t the case.
I would wholeheartedly recommend reading How To Win Friends And Influence People (or at least this summary). Especially if you’re trying to convince people to vote in the midterms.


Never once has anyone shown me a credible path there. Just please vote D while waiting for that miracle to happen, we need Trump out.
Vote with your heart in the primaries, vote with your head in the general. Of course you should vote Democrat. I’m just saying there are also things you can do to improve the quality of Democrats you get.
Tall order for Americans.
It was a successful prosecutor versus a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, insurrectionist, and probable pedophile with one failed presidency already under his belt and a significant number of Americans still managed to not vote or turn their vote to ash with a 3rd party candidate, including a shit ton of users on this very platform who still think they were very smart for doing so.
Ugh don’t remind me it makes me mad every time
Ah, ok you’re one of the reasonable ones. For some reason I’ve been butting heads against staunch anti-Ds today and it grinds you. They refuse to see that their position is playing in the hands of the R cronies.
But yes, what Bernie almost did was amazing. Very much hoping to see something similar happen again.
Yeah, I don’t know why that position is so common here. And God it would be so awesome to see someone like Bernie actually succeed. I think it’s possible.
They must be either paid shills, or fanatics who direct their anger to the Democratic party. Their solution is some vague revolution, whereas taking over the Democratic party would be an order of magnitude easier task.
How can you take over an organization that creates its own rules to prevent exactly that?
idk, how do you revolt against a system designed to prevent exactly that?
Direct action.
“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable”

Ok good luck with that
Nazi Germany had lots of “reasonable ones” too. Good Germans. Good Americans.
They made a poem about it.
…what? That’s a non-sequitur with concerning implications.
First they came for the communists…
because we’re the only ones with universal solidarity, and yeah, we say something.
I don’t really understand what point you’re trying to make
I will not vote for a pro genocide candidate. You want to know what’s too far? That’s it. I won’t put myself OR YOU over kids in Gaza. No apologies.
We deserve neither prosperity or security.
I never asked what was too far or talked to you so ok go ahead
