  • As the old guard gets replaced, the hope is that we bring in more and more liberal people over time.

    We just today had the poster child of the “new guard” of the democrats coming out and talking about how great it is that nothing happens now. While we are one year into a genocide. While we are further building the wall and enforcing all the border policies that she went down to the border to have a photo op crying at.

    Do you think AOC will save anyone? She’ll just go back to brunch while the world burns.

    Voting third party is ineffective no matter how you look at it, at least not in the Presidential election.

    If you can’t see further than a single election cycle ahead I guess. Consistently voting for the “lesser evil” will only make the “lesser evil” more evil. If there is a voting bloc that is strong enough to apparently scupper the democrats maybe they should try to appeal to them in any way rather than court the people voting for the “greater evil”?












  • Yeah, the big difference wasn’t people voting more for Labour, but that there was a splinter party and the press was less than completely glowing towards the tories. Also that SNP decided to spontaneously combust.

    More people voted for Labour in 2019, an election that I’ve been told was the worst election ever by very serious Blairites. And even with the lower turnout they only gained 1.5% of the popular vote. They are an exceptionally weak majority party and have already pissed away all the good will they could have had pushing any good policy.
