I think you’re only allowed to be this cocky if you actually pressure your party after its election. You don’t do this, you forget about democracy the moment it’s most important to pressure your leaders. If the dem party allowed republicans to go this far it’s because they know they just have to put out some barely decent optics and then they’ll be off the hook for 4 years, winning or losing.
If things are as shitty as they are it’s also because of the people that wake up in time only to berate those who’ve been talking and protesting unheard for all these years, maybe with your voice the dem party would actually become desirable and not just the least worst option.
Maybe people will be more inclined to listen to you if you didn’t treat them like mindless sheep, somewhat ironically.
Politics isn’t just voting, and it isn’t just voting the lesser evil, doing only that is literally how fascism finds purchase in democracy and you should stop being so high and mighty defending the party responsible for this inaction for so many years
What many people don’t realize, some know all to well, once the dems are established the democrat party out number the left voices that want to push back against it. They then go about shutting down all discussions. So, this year, and this is all too premature, if Kamala wins let her face the fire immediately. Don’t come out shutting down everyone who has something true but factually bad for Kamala. I know this is a bad look, because sexism, but we can’t go on like this where the president gets a infinite pass because they lock themselves up in the white house never to be seen or heard again.

I don’t see how is it sexist to hold a person accountable. It would be sexist to not do so just for the fact that that person happens to be a woman
Totally agree with the rest tho
It’s sexist because we would be treating kamala different and there will definitely be some that do it based solely on the fact that she’s a woman.
Why differently? Do you think it is impossible to criticize two sides at once?
