That "pearl clutching" shit was really offensive.

But US general elections really are fucked up because of the 2-party system.

E.g., Westboro Baptist (D) vs. generic Republican in a general election. I still vote D, because Republicans, especially after Trump, are just that much of a menace.

Quality control in D primaries is essential to avoid travesties like this hypothetical.

The Dems aren't nominating Westboro Baptist Church members, though...I fully acknowledge the slower walk on LGBT rights, but since 2012, the Dems have become among the most pro-LGBT parties in the world.

The most prominent progressive politician in the country who has defined himself as the moral center of the movement just gave carte blanche to this. It is very hard to articulate the feeling of immense betrayal right now.
