    For some reason leftists are more interested in attacking the Democratic Party that gives them a platform than winning over voters.

    For some reason, liberals both want leftist votes and don’t want to cater to leftist voters. Pick a lane, either liberals need the left or not.

    Anyway, it sure seems like liberals hate the right, but clearly not enough to compromise with the left over compromising with the right.

    Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.

        Dems want leftists to accept reality, which is that leftists have a lot of work to do before their policies can pass, and that their current “strategy” works against them, since they’re attacking the only vehicle through which their policies could gain some traction.

        Yeah, y’know when you’ve tried to fix your car like 30 times, and you’re staring down another $2k repair on a car worth half that… at some point I would start throwing duct tape on the thing and scrap it when I can hopefully get a better car. You want me to pretend it’s the only car in the world worth keeping, but I’m telling you it’s scrap metal.

          Cool analogy, bro.

          Even in your scenario, the car is broken because you haven’t been doing the proper maintenance, and you’ll never afford that other car because you’re currently working for a different kind of currency than what’s accepted where you live.

          But I do accept you’d rather do business with the scrap metal dealer and leave yourself with no mode of transportation than fix your fucking car.

            The car mechanic you are advocating for is corrupt as fuck. Does bandaid quality work then breaks something else so you have to come back for future repairs.

              I love that even two leftists together can’t come up with the idea of fixing the car themselves. Maybe bc on a subconscious level they know they’re not capable 😂
