Current Events > The Democrats have long pretended that they are progressive.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Theyve gotten away with failing the vulnerable for too long.

These are their cities. They need to be punished. I dont expect a revolution, but I do want to see people oust these entrenched single party local governments. They dont care about us because there are no consequences.

D.C. has been 100% Democrat controlled since Home Rule was instated and look at this place.

Ah, is your bridge undergoing its yearly pressure wash, my dear Blingbling?

yes

Now they don't have a choice but to actually be progressive if not for the voters.

Aren't almost all Democratic cities war zones?

I do not support either major political party whatsoever. I will say this..it does seem like the left is much, much more hateful.

Was it the "being noisy" or the "saying things that make you uncomfortable"?

Because it certainly isn't the "actual murder". That's definitely the province of the right.

The next four years will be interesting regardless.

The two party system is already starting to buckle under it's own weight.

Cyric, wtf you even talking about?

So which progressive party should everyone vote for then?

Dems be like Our corrupt rich old white people are better than your corrupt rich old white people!

The Republican Party platform is Derek Chauvin. The Democratic Party platform is the cop that watched and held the civilians back from helping.

Im obviously asking what you meant.

He said the left is more hateful. I asked him which part of the left he finds more hateful, the "noisy" part or the "making him uncomfortable" part.

Are you going to respond for him? If so, by all means.

Hmm, your response is missing something. The second half of the quote. What does that mean?

Well 74% of mass shootings in the last few years have been committed by right-wingers compared to 2% by left-wingers perhaps that sheds some light?

What, the fact that politically motivated murder has been the province of the right for some time? Do you have a counter to that?

EDIT: Oh ohhhhh you're in this topic to argue that mass shootings by right-wing extremists does not count as "murder"? I see now.

They're fuckin snakes. Can't believe people still vote for them

So youre gonna try to make it look like im defending right wing extremist murder now? Thats pretty sleazy tbh, says a lot about you. Kinda like how you acted like you didnt know what i was referring to when i asked what you meant initially.

You said actual murder is the province of the right, which is a stupid thing to say. Now youre trying to spin it as politically motivated murder, mass shootings, clinging to that because you know you said something dumb. Just wanted to rub your face in it. Nothing else to argue, i can already see you ready to waste my time being deceptive and such. "Ohhhh youre in this topic to defend extremist mass shootings" lmao, look at yourself dude. That makes no sense here in reality, i was in the topic before that guy said that shit.

Oh you're having a normal one. Were you really going to try to catch me on a bit of "both sides commit murder" pedantry? In case you hadn't read the topic title, this is about politics. To assume that I wasn't referring to political motivation when I said "actual murder" just shows our little boy Valentine woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning (if he even slept, your kind tends to stew in the night hours, I've noticed).

Feeling angry? Looking for a fight today? Well too bad. This is the weekend and I'm going to enjoy it and I'm not engaging in your little pissant games.
