Yes, the Dems have their problems and they always need to be pushed forwards, but equating them to the GOP actively opposing equal human rights and protecting rich company execs is insane. And guess what? If people actually started consistently voting for Dems, the GOP would be forced to evolve into a more marketable party. That's how change happens, the democratic and republican parties weren't on the same sides as they were in early American history. Imagine a world where this is the Republicans: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DDMomaCUMAAOHZG.jpg I agree with this somewhat. Dems lost because they were all over the place. They didn't show up. They weren't united. But even if they didn't, isn't that still ultimately "us vs them"? I just don't like the idea of "Voting Dem because they're Dem"... even if the alternative seems much worse. Perhaps I'm being stubborn and not seeing that sometimes it's necessary? You're not really voting dem because they're dem as much as you're voting dem because they aren't republican, while actually capable of winning the office. Like, the idea here is the similar solidarity of the Republican party, who a large number of vote Republican simply because they aren't Dem.
