And Democrats keep trying to win over hostile Windows users.

Do they vote for Democrats less than Republicans vote for Democrats? Because the party expends a fuckton of effort on trying to win over Republicans.

And centrists who don’t want to listen to more progressive youngins.

Huh. I thought young people never voted, so we could ignore their concerns.

Guess that was a fucking lie from people who just wanted to ignore young people’s concerns.

They’ve shown up in “unprecedented numbers” in almost every recent presidential election, starting with Obama’s first term. But it’s never good enough for anybody else.

“Young people don’t vote” is just an excuse to ignore young people’s concerns, and it has never mattered that it’s not true.

No one could remember it in 2016 either.

Maybe. I’d prefer we give her a year or two to see how progressive she’s going to be.

If she shows some progressive bona fides, she’ll have no problem. Without the threat of a progressive challenger, I’m afraid we’ll get 4 years of centrists screaming that she’s the most progressive president since FDR and expecting everyone to buy it, like they did with Biden. And that’s at best. At worst, they’ll gleefully announce that moving to the right works, double down on Gaza, and THEN announce that she’s the most progressive president since FDR.

We’re forced to work within the Democrat party for now, and if we’re seen as unpleasable, more centrist Democrats will have an excuse not to even try.

As though they have ever tried.

EDIT: Responding to your edit:

and if we’re seen as a bunch of malcontents, centrist Democrats will see that as an excuse to reach out to more “gettable” moderates and conservatives instead

Democrats do that in response to the sun rising in the morning.

When you take into account those that caucus with Democrats and vote with them more reliably than actual registered party members, there are 50 seats. Your excuses are shit, and you know it.

I was right. It didn’t stop you.

I forgot that I need to append “I already voted for Harris” to anything that isn’t fawning worship, or Democrats’ sanctimonious lecture reflex kicks in.

I’m just hoping they’ve made the calculation that remaining ambiguous on Gaza is a better electoral strategy, and once in office she doesn’t intend to spit in the faces of her base the way Biden has.

Progressives should start working on a primary challenge the moment the polls close. Democrats should never have the opportunity to claim a mandate on this issue.

If you are angry at this ad, have you considered taking up chain smoking?

And yet we can ignore young people’s concerns because they don’t vote.

It is within the President’s power to use executive authority to halt the military financing to Israel.

It is, yes. But Democrats are fucking outstanding at inventing bureaucratic hurdles to stand in the way of things they ran on but don’t want to do.

After all, if she didn’t sow discord by pointlessly undermining the president while an essentially powerless Vice President

She had no problem disagreeing with him when he called Republican voters garbage. She had no problem differing from him when she promised to put a Republican in her cabinet.

It’s funny how she can move to his right as much as she wants, but never to his left.

Democrats: We can ignore the concerns of young people because they don’t vote.

Also Democrats: Why are young people falling for Republicans’ shit?

Because the FCC’s authority over content is contingent on its authority to license portions of the electromagnetic spectrum for broadcast.

Can’t remember at the moment what it’s called, but there’s a law making it illegal for the US to support war crimes.

The Leahy Law.

Well, now Democrats will start coming up with excuses for why conditioning or ceasing arms sales to Netanyahu isn’t within her power.

EDIT: I already voted for Harris.

Would it be appropriate to send in the national guard

Sending in the National Guard in Ohio always works out well!
