10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Dems are the establishment, both parties are full of old pieces of shit I think Bernie is the only decent one and he's promoting stuff that we have in Europe and is basic for a rich western democracy.
Nothing is gonna change unless people start rioting and protesting in the streets like the fucking French do, go set a few precints on fire and the ruling noble class will notice you once you kick a few of their loyal uniformed dogs
They should make a new party, call it the greens or something
That name is already taken by an organization funded primarily by Republican donors.
The Dems need to do a lot of things. I don't really believe it's possible.
For one, if they continue to be owned by corporations, then no change will happen.
If We The People don't actually have a say in party nominees, no change will happen.
If they keep bending over to "cross the aisle", no change will happen. Stop trying to be the "good guy" and fucking fight for the party platform.
And that platform needs to shift away from the wants of rich liberals. Progressives need a voice.
They should make their own party with blackjack and hookers. A third party that isn't sleepwalking like the democrats could actually win in this shitshow
Revenge of the Whigs
(This time everyone has to wear powdered wigs.)
May I also have syphilis?
Live in the US any longer and it’s going to become a greatest hits album of communicable diseases regardless.
You can have a little syphilis, as a treat.
Ye-eee-eeee-sssss!
Too bad the rest of the Democrats can't hear them with all that money stuffed in their ears.
