    Crossing your arms and going “No, I won’t vote for your agenda without your full support!” when the alternative to voting for that agenda is literally fucking fascism is flat out saying you support fascism more than you support your own party. Tell progressives how they’re doing it wrong more, I’m sure it will win important elections like it… hasn’t.

    This fucking “I was here first, and have seniority, so I deserve first choice” stuff is grade school bullshit.

      You’re both right, and it doesn’t matter. They used to be playing a game with rules. Those are gone now, and nothing makes any sense.

      Ultimately, it doesn’t matter what Jeffries says. Nothing any elected representatives can do is effectual anymore. Fourth box time.

        Spicy. Hard truth no one wants to acknowledge. You don’t beat cancer by ignoring it until it’s metastasized everywhere then try to make deals with it for your life.

        Modern conservativism is a moral and economic cancer. It breeds to harm people. We need to disenfranchise those cancerous people one way or another. Federate them into their own states to run into the ground or put them there ourselves.
