The enemy is both weak and strong. The progressives are too small to pay attention to their requests, but cost millions of votes.

Yup, it was not lost on me that this was essentially Eco's 8th feature of fascism. Not that the Democrats are fascists; they don't match most of the other features, especially 6 (I don't think it'd ever occurred to them to appeal to anyone's frustrations), but it seems liberals have at least borrowed this rhetorical attack to punch left.

I mean when you consider how much they benefit from Trump and his economic polices, it makes sense why they do. Not to meantion how many are some of the most bigoted people until its profitable enough. Scatch a liberal...

I mean, I tend to believe that they're actually just a truly incompetent, cowardly bunch that are too afraid to fight and too stupid to realize that a party can't simultaneously serve a working-class base and billionaire donors. That being said, I've been much more open to the controlled opposition theory since Schumer caved on the budget for no conceivable reason.

Oh progressives are definitely weak. But numerous. A simple bare minimum vote would have stopped ALL of this from happening.

But you couldn’t even do that. So yeah.. weak as fuck if you ask me.

Then you’re clearly not who I’m talking about. I guess it’s either that simple reading comprehension is an issue for you, or you have a white knight complex.

One of the two- but my point remains untouched regardless.
