    “Liberals will win majority of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, CNN projects”

    The one on the right should be “Edgelord leftists posting on Lemmy”

    I mean I’m not gonna deny that some like Schumer have been totally useless. But over the last few months “liberals doing nothing” has included halving Tesla’s stock price and winning the Supreme Court in a state that went Trump. In prediction markets future races are looking bad for Republicans. Don’t like what democrats are doing? Great, go run or support a candidate you do like. Or better yet, run as a Republican and do a hostile takeover of that party so you can challenge democrats from the left in the general too. There’s enough anger at Republicans now that it could actually work, especially in safe blue districts.

      Dems biggest problem has never been results. They have done that. Time and time again. Fix the economy. Solve unemployment. Shot the steal. Whatever it is. They have actually done it each time.

      But i have never seen a group that has been so mindblowingly incompetent at messaging.

      Take some fucking credit you dipshits!

      Seriously. Biden did almost everything we asked him to do. But the party never took credit or bragged about it enough. So much so that despite accomplishing the status quo, he still came across as a loser and lost the election for his incumbent.

      They did what we asked. But we were too timid or pc to take the fucking credit! we lost because of some semblance of decorum or some other nonsense.

      Brag about it you pussy ass bitches!

          If a handful of online “lefties” can undo Democrats’ billion dollars of advertising, then that sounds like you’re agreeing that Dems are mind-blowingly incompetent at messaging.

          If Dems can’t win until everyone matches in lockstep with no disagreement then either Dems need to fall in line with their base, or get ready for a third Trump term.

          P.S. Democrats are a centrist party (at best). It shouldn’t be surprising that Leftists don’t consider them left enough. Why does the existence of Leftists anger moderates so much?

            I agree with you. and power to the people we should be able to express our will over that of some rich guy.

            I also agree that Democrats are eccentric party and we do not treat the far left very well. I just consider you to weigh the impact of your vote in the future.

            I really don’t want to have to go defend Canada for my own country next time if I could. I’m sure you have other wants to.

              Can you tell me why any time I express the slightest criticism of the Democrats, a Democrat has to lecture about voting? I did not say anything about how I voted.

                Because VBNMW is the Blue MAGA mantra to deflect any criticism from a candidate who is racist, sexist, queerphobic, because the other guy is a bit more racist, sexist, and queerphobic.
