Potato Salad posted:If you want to discount Ellison like Viral suggested we abandon Bernie, we're hosed and your energy spent fighting for progress is better spent in another country. We cannot fix this loving wage slavery society without earnest, popular stepping stones. You'll get crushed every time before making yet another Bad Dems thread that toes the line on the morality of functionally giving up. He was lmao'ing because it was a ridiculous comment to make.

Condiv posted:not voting for dems is now immoral This makes more sense when you remember that most people here front about caring about an extremely small amount of victimized groups, largely because people from the Middle East/Africa/Central and South America have effectively no presence on these boards and thus 0 weight in their personal calculus of acceptable sacrifices.

People have created a mental picture of Condiv as some dudebro making six figgies. Ironically enough, this is largely perpetuated by posters actually making six figures.

I'm pretty sure condiv held the same opinions before Macron went all-in on loving him and his co-workers.

Most people with a functioning brain would, indeed, wonder what's happening when they notice they're losing people who formerly voted for them and maybe consider how to reverse that. Unfortunately, for Democrats, shedding their voters is entirely intentional as part of the effort to replace the icky working class with wealthy moderate republicans.

botany posted:yeah i'm sure the fact that dems are now openly talking about UBI and single payer, and the fact that LGBTQ rights are now so entrenched that joy reids dumbass homophobia is a major scandal again is not indicative of dems considering how to reverse that trend As VitalSigns effectively said, it would have been extremely nice if they had begun doing this work before they lost on literally every level of government possible.

"Push left in the primary, dumbass." "The party is literally forcing leftists out of primaries." "Oh, did you think they wouldn't resist, you dumbass?" Great talk here.

Sanguinia posted:Look, I understand the point you're making, I've gone out of my way to defend Colin Kaepernick for not voting in the 2016 election on these very lines. But there are things that can't be undone later on the table as the result of that election, like as many as 120 lifetime appointed federal judges over the next two years if the Senate isn't retaken or some GOP cowards aren't terrified into inaction in November, or the years of time without State, EPA or HUDD being repaired by a different president after 2020. The time to avert it was years ago, is the thing. Like, the idea is to kill these things before they get to this point where damage is being inflicted that will take decades to reverse even with radical change.

WampaLord posted:If discussing national level politics, it's basically pointless to worry about individual votes. This is the other thing, yes. People here attribute a very literal ton of weight to individual votes to the point of flipping the gently caress out if a poster is even mildly negative about something Dem-related because that single person might ruin everything. It's completely silly and what Ytalya was commenting on earlier.

This is some weird-rear end gaslighting you're doing. Like for real, just sitting there trying to badger people into saying black people are stupid or uninformed and then when that didn't work just acting like they said it anyway.

In what fantasy world are the people supposedly berating "lesser evil" voters in any way comparable in dickitude to "lesser evil" voters who literally go into a rage when someone implies that "lesser evil" isn't good enough. Particularly when the "lesser evil" voters being shat on are, specifically, the ones willing to sell out anything and everything as long as it gets a D elected. Not captive loving demographics.
