Yeah, the Dems lost seats in the House in 2020, barely managed to get a 50/50 Senate split due to a pair of runoffs in Georgia, and won the presidency by fewer votes than Trump did in 2016, despite winning a massive electoral vote margin. But sure, the Dems got a massive mandate to pull the country hard to the left. Okay. I didnt ask for hard left, I asked for not right and/or doing the things they specifically ran on. Blaziken posted... You know why the GOP win? Because they suffer no consequences for their actions. Objectively incorrect, they win because they dont just talk the talk, when they get power they literally DO the awful shit they promised. The only thing that ever stops them is laws and procedure, they NEVER consider the political capital, they just DO what they said they would. Blaziken posted... That's just how things are. You don't like it, change the hearts and minds of the moderate majority of voters in the Democratic Party, who you seem more than content to b** about by trashing their proxies in Congress and the White House, rather than retooling your message to appeal to them. lol you dont get it both ways. Inviso posted... You and I understand. We at least grasp the idea that a rising tide raises all boats, and having more well-educated students means a more intelligent and effective work force across all fields (particularly the ones like medicine or the law, which require a great deal of intellect). We grasp that police budgets are bloated and dedicated to the wrong things, and they're especially ineffective once your melanin levels reach a certain point. But most Americans are not us. Most Americans are fing idiots. And unfortunately, they hold a lot more political power than we do. It cant be both MY fault for not convincing people WHILE you and I agree but its the fucking idiots who are to blame. The correct answer is that progressive policy is popular, Democrats run on progressive policies that draw votes, and then they dont DO the shit. Sorry, but Im not playing this game again. Joe (and Pelosi, et al) have a play clock until the refs kick them off the field, its time for them to score the points, not me. --- Phantom Dust.
