MODERATORS
lol. Temporarily got back the barest minimum of protections and a handful more people made destitute by our system are no longer completely excluded from healthcare if they jump through the right hoops. Great, democracy wins! Except when it doesn't. "just one more!!" "vote harder!!!"
Being unpopular doesn't stop the Republicans. It's always excuses with the democrats. Always the voters' fault they can't get anything done, even when they run bad million-dollar campaign after bad million-dollar campaign that demostrably turns away voters and are very careful not to promise or even mention the things you are promising, but trust me!!! They're gonna do it this time!!
Of course, why would they say anything else or take the time to correct you? It would be terrible PR, they would lose their loyalists! And then everyone will have no choice but to vote for Republicans!!!! ^(third parties are not viable and don't even bother showing up for them until our beloved party members remove FPTP which is definitely going to happen in the foreseeable future)^
When will you stop making up excuses for the Democrats?
man i love the irony in these rage posts.
It's always such good memes.
Got "back" ...?
Got it for the first time. The purest most primal form of society is not one where all medical is covered by the government and all conditions are protected, that is a system we create for ourselves by voting for legislators who will enact it. You can try saying "voting harder doesn't work" when we actually try it once.
Was the unpopular candidate winning with a historic number of votes in order to get Trump out not enough for you?
No, not even close, we need a democrat supermajority in congress to pass stuff. I don't like it either but that's how it's been for longer than I've been alive.
And look where it's gotten us.
It literally hasn't existed, so the fact that it's lack of existence isn't getting you places kind of proves my point.
Holy fuck learn how to read dude 😂 keep going after that carrot!! You're gonna get it someday! Whether it's so old and rotten that nobody else wants it by the time you get it, it'll be yours!!!!!
