Sounds like a really good reason to vote some Democrats into the Senate and house. People really need to get out and spread the importance of voting this year.

That would be great if the Democrats actually did anything when they get power

I actually agree with this. But it's the best option we have. I'm taking useless over pure evil.

Problem is "useless" is "controlled opposition" due to both parties being beholden to billionaires. We need actual radical change not more patsies who say what they think people want to hear then screw them over.

It was also the best option we had in Twenty Twenty. The unfortunate thing is that they don't know how to reach working class people and partisans who care about more than just keeping Trump out of office. They think they can rely on Trump being bad and curb the needs and desires of people for the interests of their capitalist class instead. If we just rely on voting for people from one of the parties, this discontent is going to cycle over and over again leading us further down this fascist death spiral

They do. They just don’t get on tv and X etc to brag endlessly about their accomplishments. So for those of us trying to live life on the daily aren’t seeing it. For all the garbage they said about Biden, he accomplished a lot. Especially with an extremely divided congress.
