if bernie had somehow won the primary they would have sandbagged him in the general and a bunch of them would have supported a bloomberg third party run or something

the notion that the party would fall in line behind him is so laughable in retrospect

Democrats would settle with a loss so they could sell more books on how Trump sucks and the leftists are going the wrong way about it.

And for decades leftists have been saying that the Democrats were lying and Roe was never in any danger, so lots of people decided to not vote for Democrats. "Both the major parties are just the same" has been the cry of the privileged dumbass since the mid-90s. Now we can see that it is extremely loving far from the truth.

And yet promising "we'll keep things the same" is & always has been a poo poo uninspirational rallying cry. And that's the entire mantra of the US Democratic Party, Status Quo Please. You'd like to hope that'll change but you're loving kidding yourself. Remember the staggering complacent myopathy of the "America is already great" hat?

Clarence Thomas was sworn in by Joseph Biden. I'm sorry if you're stuck in the delusion that the democrats are going to help you if you kist vote for them enough, but that's not how this game works. The controlled opposition is not your ally.

Republicans passed exactly one major piece of legislation during Trump's time (the tax cuts), and they were stymied by holdouts within their own party when they tried to pass their (at the time) #1 headline agenda item, repealing the ACA. Hell, even Trump's pet project (the wall) never got full legislative approval and only had tiny bits implemented through lots of executive pretzel-twisting.

I know conspiracy theories help comfort the mind in a chaotic world, pretending that everything that goes wrong is at least the result of some power that is actually in control, but they are ultimately a fantasy.

liberals do not understand nor care about power

idiot middle-manager types like the Democrats think of politics, especially parliamentary politics, as a cooperative game with all its rules and conventions in which the ruling class does whatever they can to keep themselves floating along, and they will compromise with their opposition just because it's how the game's always been played. Democracy was never about governing for the masses, because all the proletariat is useful for is transferring wealth back to the bourgeoisie in the wake of adversity.

https://twitter.com/GravelInstitute/status/1540347369111392256

they have no agenda beyond 'keep us going', and without going too far into Kingdom of Conscience, the important part is that the Republican Party no longer gives a gently caress about the game, because they realise that politics is about wielding power over the masses by hook or by crook. They don't give a gently caress about the rules of the game, because their only repercussion for bending the rules is a tut-tut and a beleaguered telling off (if that) and because the Democrats will still bend over backwards to compromise with their Christofascist agenda since it doesn't materially affect them and what the gently caress do you mean you leopards are going to eat our faces that's against the rules!!!

in conclusion, we're all hosed
