    Republicans are Nazis.

    If Democrats had a majority in both chambers of Congress, or even just one, I guarantee you things wouldn’t be as bad as they are now.

    There’s a critique to be made about spineless, milquetoast, neoliberal leadership in the Democratic party passively allowing the Republicans to do whatever they want, but equating that with the Republicans themselves and focusing to an inordinate degree on the failures of Democratic leadership is only helping Republicans who are the actual fascists in this situation.

    You want change from within the Democratic Party? Good, get involved with the midterms. You just want to see the Democrats fail? Enjoy the authoritarian theocracy that Republicans implement, because you’ll have the day you voted for.

      Democrats are liberals who preserve the exploitative imperial system that leads to fascism. They are controlled opposition, existing to give us the illusion of choice. They will never give us meaningful change unless they are replaced by socialists. This is why Obama’s ICE was raping women, why Biden helped commit genocide in gaza. Liberals and fascists are codependant

      So what about when they had a majority, after the last phase of constantly attacking Palestine, did they cut funding down to W Bushes level then, or did they continue funding them at roughly the same level?

      You’re also forgetting that Democrats chose to not arrest Trump for known pedophilia, which likely would’ve caused enough infighting on the right to secure a win, but nah they just let him pass jail straight to Go.
