Keep the marginalized out of your mouth, liberals only care about them to whiteknight and use them as political pawns so they can stay in power. If Democrats actually cared like they claim they wouldn't be marginalized.

Failure of voters holding them accountable is what turned the party from Jimmy Carter to Bill Clinton to barely left of Trump. Voters allowed them to do whatever they wanted with no consequence so, like a dog that gets a treat after pissing on the floor, they kept pissing on the floor. Now you are buried in 50 years of piss and shit.

Anyone voting for, or advocating a vote for Democrats is not the left. You are enablers of right wing fascism.

Bro, you patted yourself on the back for fucking over Ukraine, Palestine, and America. I didn't put those marginalized people in the conversation, you did.

Lol

How did the voters fail to hold them accountable? There was one Democrat that won one single term over those 24 years, until the Democrats finally tacked all the way to the right with Clinton. What are you saying the voters should have done differently? They pursued exactly your strategy.

Arguing with liberals is exhausting, no different than their Republican counterparts.

Go back and look at your first two comments when you replied to me here.

You started an argument, and now you're unhappy that you are in an argument. Okay. If you don't have an answer for my question, just say something else. It doesn't have to be "Hey, that's a really good point, maybe refusing to vote for Democrats until they get better on their own is abundantly proven to be a dogshit strategy, and I should advocate for something else." Although, you could say that, and we could have a conversation about what a winning strategy could be. Something productive, you know? To me, that would be good.

I didn't start an argument, I pointed out fact. But liberal hubris like yours is what has contributed to our current situation.
