Forgive me such a silly question, but is it possible to... you know... decome a member of the dems and have your say?
Who wants to join a party that is only good at selling weapons to murder Palestinians?
It's a game of Would You Rather and your answer is "screw you guys, I'm going home."
You can join the Democratic Party and push them towards your beliefs or you can keep pushing them further right, but either way it's only D or R for the foreseeable future.
That's what Bernie's people did in 2016. Did you forget? They went through a whole process of trying to win numerous spots and make changes within the Democratic party structure. They got ratfucked by the DNC who shut them down. The DNC went to court and argued the party could ignore their own internal rules to prevent progressives from winning committee spots and taking over the party.
Centrists know this. As he said, it's a game to them. Their objective is to move the party to the right so they get what they want. Which is genocide.
I feel like I've blocked you a million times.
Centrism: being angry at how frequently you take steps to ignore people to your left.
I'm not angry.
There's only a few users i block.
I'm not a centrist.
If you say so.
