Here, it's more productive to point out the flaws of the Dem party than just piling on Trump. Living in an echo chamber won't accomplish much. Trump's evil is very clear, especially to people here. But a lot of liberals or Dem party loyalists have a blind spot or turn a blind eye to the team they put their stock into. The only "team" that you should bat for is that of humanity. I know that sounds lame and righteous, but it's true. It's also not useless to fight for better than what you're getting. History has taught us that it's possible. <cite>DUKLegend posted [p:986563445] in Hakeem Jef...

And it's also frustrating that the "fight for better" is applied to them when they're in the minority and don't have the power to do it. They have power. They can be hosting rallies, town halls, engaging with their constituents, doing social media campaigns, outreach work, there's so much they can be doing. Some are doing these things (mostly Bernie and AOC) but not enough are. Constantly saying things like "we have no power, we can't do anything, we need to roll over and play dead until the Republicans hang themselves" is NOT a winning strategy. When the Republicans were out of power they didn't do that, it comes off very insincere when the dems do it.

LightSnake 09/28/25 7:13:17 PM #112:	The issue is when they do this, nobody notices or cares. And even when they rpoject strength (which again, is so nebulous) we have people who ignore it or mock it. Again, see Jeffries filibuster (not a direct actual filibuster, but still) Also, Republicans out of power also didn't do very much? In IRA negotiations, most everything was handled with Manchin and Sinema while the Republicans just whined they were being cut out. Also, Bernie's "hold town halls" is what it is, let's be real: testing the waters for 2028.

El_Dustino 09/28/25 7:23:25 PM #113:	It may not be entirely fair to him, but Jeffries is poison. His brand is tainted. We should commend the good things he does, but no one likes him, the chance of him redeeming himself in the eyes of the people is basically zero. He is bad for the party. Trump didn't shut up after he his coup attempt failed. And the congressional repug ghouls were still out there attacking the dems in power. To be fair though, they didn't need to do much in congress since Manchin and Sinema did their jobs for them. Which is another thing, the democrats REALLY need to get better at calling out bad actors in their party. I honestly can not imagine Bernie doing this to run in 2028.

Pelosi was also bad, we shouldn't try to paint her as great just because she was a lot better than Jeffries. Unlike Pelosi, I have not met a single person who had anything favorable to say about him.

It refers to the usual people that claimed to care about the genocide in Gaza, but did everything in their power to aid Republicans win 2024.... who are much worse for Gaza. All the while having every excuse under the sun to be less critical of those same Republicans, and every excuse under the sun to protest Republicans less. Again, those same people won't miss a beat to be critical and protest Democrats at a far greater rate and severity. In otherwords, the people more invested in appearing like they care, but their actions show the complete opposite given they seem to be less active against Republicans.... you know, the party holding the White House, majority in Congress, and Supreme Court. We have a few of those usuals even in this topic. For example, the people that were protesting Obama, a guy who hasn't been president since 8 years ago..... instead of Trump (the current president), Vance (thr VP), Mike Johnson (the GOP Speaker)..... practically any sitting GOP congressman on a larger scale. In fact these people have loads of excuses to protest and criticize them equally or less than Democrats. <cite>asdf8562 posted [p:986572473] in Hakeem Jef...

I didnt harass you, and frankly dont recall whether or not you were part of the group that did as I described posts ago. That said, if you were among that group (Kain, Thanatos, Dustin, Zell, Dio), claiming you voted for Kamala or donated to her means nothing if again, you constantly messaged criticism of Democrats more than Republicans. Pretending to be left, while conveniently always being more critical of Democrats over Republicans isnt a new strategy. Your (i use the word your and you to speak in general) claimed actions do not overshadow your literal actions all can actually see of having a posting history of attacking Democrats equally or less than Republicans. Then having all the excuses in the world to not attack Republicans more. Again, I dont follow/remember your posts enough to put you in either or camp. Another user here might be able to chime in on that one. But the other users I listed, definitely have a track record which is exactly why they are called Champions of Gaza. Their track record proves they dont actually care, as they tend to be less present when it comes to holding Republicans accountable. Criticism of Democrats is one thing. Having a pattern of being more critical of Democrats than Republicans, and having every excuse under the sun why you dont want to be critical of Republicans.... is another.

Despite Trump being worse. Trump is now literally in charge, MAGA controls the House, the Senate and the Supreme Court and they still find ways to be less critical of the people literally in power. We cant act surprised a certain amount of people in this country are uneducated about how bad Trump/MAGA is when there is a concerted effort to hold Democrats to a higher standard than Republicans.
