  3. So how, exactly, is the current Democratic Party leadership any different from a Potemkin opposition, existing only to fill the space where actual resistance would go?

        @gknauss The Democratic Party has a progressive wing, and it has organizers, and it has people who are pushing back against the Trump regime.

        And yes, it has centrists and Dinosaur Dems too. We’re going to try to primary some of them. It’s not perfect and never has been.

        So how, exactly, are you contributing to the world and being better than these supposed worthless Dems? I hope you’re not just making Mastodon posts telling other people not to try.

            Not much, but if over a third of voters couldn't be bothered to vote in midterms because "both sides", then this is what we get
