Dems just need to start firing off bills that do Good Things and sending them to the senate and not stop until we have a democratic president again. They will all be crushed but it’s good to build a record of their crimes in the meantime. Just like making them vote for a rapist, make them vote down making veterans’ lives better, etc.

Do the greens know they're controlled opposition and they're enjoying the grift, or are they legit accelerrationists who think they'll somehow come out on top in a full fascist takeover?

Part of the Senate Majority Leader's incredible power comes from setting the calendar - even if a committee passes a super popular bill, McConnell can just... not take it up, and it eventually dies.

Let's be clear that I'm talking about supporters of the America's Green Party specifically, not supporters of environmentalist parties in general around the world. With that out of the way: They're loving morons.

I voted for the Green guy in the last mayoral election here. He wasn't the anti-vax kind, was progressive and charismatic as hell, and I think he would've done a lot of good for the city. He ended up getting like 16% of the vote, which isn't much, but was a lot more than the Republican candidate got.

Dr. Stein definitely knows she's controlled opposition and is enjoying the grift and it's precisely my problem with her. She's taken the Green Party in a bad direction nationally, and I feel like DSA Dems are a better solution all-around.

Replies to a couple of topics from last night 1. Pelosi should still be in charge of wrangling votes and keeping party in line, but we need another person as face of the party. So Pelosi as majority leader and Barbara Lee as Speaker. 2. There’s a strong chance AOC will be president some day, and her 2020 DNC keynote address, like Obama, will be a springboard to it.

Bicyclops posted:It's a shame the word "shill" has essentially become a gendered insult, because Jill rhymes with shill, and Dr. Stein is 100 percent a sell-out to the conspiracy elements of her party. Her earlier career is indicative that she's smart enough to know better, which means, ironically, that she's just the kind of politician people who are voting for her hate the most: a cynical opportunist. Are you confusing "shill" with "shrill"? Because calling someone a "shill" isn't gendered at all to my knowledge.

I voted for one Green-Rainbow candidate here in MA because I did an interview for a job at the State Treasurer's Office, and she was such an awful, terrible human being that I can never, in good conscience, vote for her. I tend to do write-ins over Green anymore, they just don't have good candidates in MA like they used to.
