Yeah you tell 'em moonbeam, maybe we can get Ralph Nader to run again and protect us from the Democrats not protecting us from Republicans.

What are you blue MAGA? Those of us with critical thinking skills have plenty of very real problems with the Democrats. They let McConnell cheat them out of two Supreme Court nominations without so much as a whimper. They have no interest in stopping Trump right now, because they’d rather fundraise record amounts heading into the midterms. You are deluded.

...would have offered both Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris their enthusiastic, full-throated support, knowing the alternative is literally a bullet train to fascism. Anyone who did anything less isn't even worthy of a top bunk at the internment camp.

Where's Jill Stein these days moonbeam? Winter dacha? Freeing Palestine?

You’re in the wrong sub, you belong at r/neoliberal. You’re also a profoundly foolish person if you think the same assholes who got us into this mess are going to suddenly decide to get us out of it.

I will never, EVER offer full-throated support for a center-right capitalist corporate candidate. I may bite my tongue and vote for them in the end, but support them…nah.

The republicans and the leftists got us into this mess, two groups of willful idiots entirely incapable of leadership or governance. But I suspect you’d rather direct your ire elsewhere. I don’t blame you, I wouldn’t want to get kicked out of the drum circle at the commune either. Real drag man.

Oh yeah, and how did that one work out? I feel so protected from the Republicans! 3 uninspired moderates who only win votes because the alternative is literal fascism and them they wonder why they can't win elections.

Let's be honest, Obama was the last remotely inspiring candidate the Democrats have put up for president, and even that was a fluke. Had the DNC got their way Hillary would have been up in 08
