tbf, all social progress in the country has come through votes by the democratic party. I really didn’t expect them to be quite so terrible about standing up to fascism though-- before these past couple months I would’ve thought that as more people like Schumer get old and retire/die and more people like AOC replace them there would be a path forward, but now I’m wondering if this is maybe the inflection point for an entirely new party to take over. Bernie’s been an independent his whole career-- maybe it can start there
