    You’re just proving what the guy you responded to said.

    Under democrats we got gay marriage, the repeal of don’t ask don’t tell, the affordable care act, net neutrality, other stuff I can’t think of at the moment, and instead of accepting slow progress the response is “you should have done that 40 years ago, I’m going to stay home because you’re not moving fast enough for me.”

    On the other hand, republicans kept voting every fucking chance they had and after 50 years they got Roe overturned because those scraps add up eventually.

      No gay marriage was the courts, and now may end up being removed like Roe v Wade.

      On the other hand, republicans kept voting every fucking chance they had and after 50 years they got Roe overturned because those scraps add up eventually.

      By actually doing a long term plan and doing absolutely anything needed to get it done.

      With dems we get half solutions, like ACA.

        Republican voters say the exact same things about Republican politicians.

        They constantly talk about how conservative shitbags that waffled on this one thing are RINOs.

        They make up conspiracies where Democrats are stopping their preferred solution even when Republicans control every branch of government.

        They just have the votes.

        It’s not understanding, it’s blind faith.

        And who was it that appointed those judges?

        So steps towards a goal from republicans are part of a long term plan to what they need, but from Democrats they’re half assed? Come on man. We were never going to get socialized medicine in one step.

        The point here is that under Democrats there is progress. Would it be nice if it happened faster? Hell yes. But right now we’re racing backwards, and that sure as hell isn’t going to get us anywhere good unless you’re an accelerationist.

          GOP after dems thought they’d play nice or by the rules.

          No the point is the dems refuse to long term plan or plan at all for when in power. That’s the issue.
