Voters vote in primaries too you know. Biden beat Bernie almost entirely on a myth that he was the most electable. That shit has to go, and Rachel Maddow and Chris Cuomo aren’t going to do that for us.
Good thing the idea of a “uniparty” is fucking idiotic and not even remotely close to correct and is just a pathetic excuse for Republicans who don’t want to admit that they’re in favor of everything going on.
Until we have ranked choice, “us” is the anti Republican contingent.
You never vote FOR a candidate in a first past the post election. You vote AGAINST who you hate most. And not voting counts as a vote for who you hate most because it lowers their bar to win. It’s unfortunately how the math works out.
The democrats failing to block Republicans and running on dogshit policy that helps nobody got us here. You have to be pretty fucking awful to lose to Donald fucking trump twice.
But it’s true. We’re hyper-individualized and have forgotten what it’s like to move together. We press a button, and nothing happens, so we assume it’s useless. We have stopped thinking about acting together as a community, and all pressing the button together to have an effect.
And we’ve also forgotten that, in order to be a community and wield that power, you have to accept that some people disagree with you on some topics. It’s how the right keeps winning.
But one thing we can’t disagree on, is how first past the post works. You never vote FOR a candidate you like. You’re always voting AGAINST the worst candidate.
Oh nooooo, he’s not perfect! Let’s elect trump again.
We can’t criticize the Democrats now?
Up to you. Do you think it’ll help us win?
See, I write to them. I call them. I influence them. You, you’re influencing voters. Is that a winning strategy?

Who’s “us”? We’re against the uniparty. Not in favor of it.

I hate Democrats most because they block any meaningful progress to an alternative. What does that mean?
It means you’re bad at strategy and privileged enough to not be too harmed by Republican policies.

Yep! It’s their fault. They failed to vote.
Also, they were dressed to sexily, so of course this happened.
Nobody is going to take strategy advice from ride or die Democrats, mate, you are the world champions of losing elections
I haven’t been s Democrat in decades. I also understand how first past the post works.
The current situation sucks, but we’re stuck in it. Provide an alternative strategy that doesn’t rely on hopes and dreams, and I’m in.
Lol. Someone has a self inflated sense of themselves
No raindrop thinks itself responsible for the flood.
Lol, nice. Which anime did you get that line from?
Dunno. Life somewhere :-)
