If David Hogg is too far to the left for the democrats then there really is no hope for the party, not even the remote possibility of reform

They can't stand for anything, not even the watered down lib shit like gun control

Republicans should be thanking their lucky stars the only people who disagree with them are the Republican Party’s moderate wing. I never want to hear chuds even whine about anything, not even non-political stuff. They are the most spoiled, undeservedly lucky demographic in human history.

And somehow even democrats are commandist ultras in amerikkka

"The United States is also a one-party state but, with typical American extravagance, they have two of them."

It's all theater, at the end of the day both d's and r's are in agreement over everything.

This kinda happened to me at a workplace.

I tried to negotiate my salary when I began and they said they don't negotiate salaries because people of color and women are disproportionately less likely to negotiate than White men who benefit from the practice. And I'm like, but... I'm a person of color?? They wouldn't hear any of it. One of the worst jobs I've ever had.

"It would actually be racist of us to pay you more."

This is like how car dealers have a no haggle policy and act like that's a good thing.

"So what you're saying is, we should all negotiate for our salaries together? What a great idea!"

[-] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 12 points 2 months ago

That's exactly the proper response. If you can't negotiate individually, because it's "bad for the individuals," then negotiate collectively - "for the good of the company."

[-] Lussy@hexbear.net 37 points 2 months ago

Wokeception

[-] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 12 points 2 months ago

They won't negotiate your salary for your own good. That's some 1984 doublespeak for you right there.

I should have scrolled down before I made a comment with a worse version of the same pun

"Let me be unequivocal, no DNC officer should ever attempt to influence the outcome of a primary election," -- Some deepstate ooze who insisted on running Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, popular opinion be dammed

[-] hotcouchguy@hexbear.net 45 points 2 months ago

Why even bother with primaries? Just give every nomination to the most senior candidate who isn't vetoed by someone more senior. And then before the general elections, the most senior members of both parties can meet and pick which voters they want.

the-democrat: That's a great idea, but we could save so much time by just letting the Republican candidate choose

they skipped the primary for volcel-kamala

I’m begging activists, form a third party. With this much energy, just start a new party. Do not engage with democrats

Do they even run candidates outside presidential elections?

[-] CutieBootieTootie@hexbear.net 16 points 2 months ago

As conditions change and the capacity of the party grows, avenues of struggle that connect with more "disconnected" people like running in elections grows as a possibility.

Pretty hard to ignore the fact that fascists get strongly worded letters but people who say dems should do more than write angry letters get immediatly neutralized.

The American people are like a long line of desperate people waiting outside a locked restroom door to take a shit while the Democratic Party snorts lines of coke off the toilet tank.

[-] lemmyseizethemeans@lemmygrad.ml 56 points 2 months ago

The democrat party cannot be reformed. It must be destroyed. As soon as libs realize the middle class isn't even being served by these antidemocratic ghouls, maybe we can have a real third party. I don't care if it's greens DSA or PSL (of course, PSL all the way) but as it stands the Dems are a death knell to progress

[-] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 27 points 2 months ago

Good luck. They are still excited to means-test social security. The libs are completely lost in the sauce.

Dems: elect leader then realize someone who won an election can’t possibly lead them as they’re not supposed to actually win elections “No wait”

The democratic party must be abolished for any real change to happen in this country

The entire corrupt 2-party system needs to be done away with as well.
