We're there.

I mean, the DNC were being compared to the Whigs back in 2004, and now look where we are.

our only hope is that they aren't able to agree on the details of their constitutional amendments come 2018 isn't it? :negative:

It used to be one where actual developers and prominent leakers would often post.

Then at some point they got really into Bad Dems and started banning people on an industrial scale, last I heard they're in a membership death spiral.

Putin, due to sanctions the Dems voted for, downsized our embassy staff. Dems are now outraged that Trump is not mad about it, even though they've been harping about how Russia is our enemy :psyduck:

seeing centrists whipping out "you're racist cause you don't like kamala harris!!" followed by actual racism towards nina turner and transphobia towards chelsea manning has really shown centrists as the false allies to social justice they always were

the only reason I even recognize Jason Kander's name is because he got mentioned in a recent piece about all the fresh new Dems rising rapidly through the ranks who all happen to be young-ish white men with deeply moderate views and a cultivated inoffensiveness that borders on blandness

McAuliffe is, what, governor of Virginia or something?

i thought Cuomo was a Republican

still don't know who the fourth guy is

Do centrist Democrats realize that they are being complete and total assholes on a level above the alt-left with this donut and water twitter bullshit?

they feel that their side is absolutely right and justified in everything, and that the left are the ones who are being complete and total assholes by spitefully rejecting their generous offer of goodwill donuts

Something I've picked up on recently (probably from listening to Champagne Sharks) is how the centrist mind views racism and other types of bigotry. In the diseased centrist brain, racism isn't a social construct in which racial and ethnic groups are marginalized and discriminated against, but a function of intelligence.

People are racist because they are stupid and have bad opinions.
I'm not racist because I am smart and have good opinions.

Everyone that disagrees with me has bad opinions and is therefore stupid and is therefore racist. Also, because I have good opinions and am therefore smart, nothing I ever say or do could ever be considered racist. They could literally start calling Nina Turner [N-word] Nina and be shocked, appalled, and angry that you could even suggest that they were in any way racist.

Alternative: the country elects a competent fascist who actually succeeds in stripping away healthcare, voting rights and social safety nets. But he doesn't tweet about it or get us on the brink of nuclear war and democrats are willing to work with him because "well at least he's not as bad as Donald Trump!"
