    “If you don’t vote for the guy supporting a fascist ethnostate doing a genocide then it’s your fault when the fascist wins!”

    Eventually its just like fuck off. Shaming the people who have the right point of view rather than the party for its failures is more of a confession. Democrats have always had a choice of sure winners but instead go with the gamble who’s friendly to the donors. They helped Trump get the nomination in the first place too. You can’t win if you’re on the left with this cause you’re either blamed for the loss or betrayed and then shamed the next time around. Dems clearly don’t want these votes else they’d pick a candidate who could very easily secure them. Downward spiral politics.

      Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

        Yeah like Dems are clearly preferable but the morality game they play to shame the people who are on the right side of every issue is a joke. They act like they have the moral high ground because the left voters they shame aren’t “realistic,” then they define what’s realistic as a narrow range of reactionary pandering. Meanwhile they’re giving money to run ads for the actual fascist GOP candidates as a strategic ploy to get ridiculous opponents they can win against. “Imagine if Trump was the GOP candidate? The GOP would be a laughingstock!” Yeah it’s going great… now it’s like “support the party enabling an apartheid state’s genocide or you’re a fascist” cause that’s the level you have to sink to for this to make sense. Then if you suggest this is wrong or Democrats needs to do better they shame you as a Russian troll or whatever the current bad influence is supposed to be. “If you express the correct moral view I can’t argue against you’re the bad influence” is basically what it comes down to.

          At least someone else gets it. This country needs to do better. None of this is sustainable.
