    “Fixing the boat” implies they are successfully doing anything other than complain. Leftists are sitting in the boat yelling at the Liberal for not fixing the boat.

        So you’re saying they’re yelling at the liberal to fix the boat and then the guy with the gun throws them off the boat? Doesn’t sound like you’re disagreeing with me.

          What I am saying is while you cowards remain complicit, there are brave individuals risking their lives to take action, doing anything necessary, even at the cost of their professional and social lives, to stand up for what is right.

          They must confront both you hypocritical weaklings and the psychopaths.

          What did the Democrats do to protect the American population from a rapist insurrectionist corrupted by russia when they were in power?

          It seems that empathy is a lesson some of you still need to learn. Unfortunately, this lesson comes at the expense of millions of lives. Bombing children to achieve genocidal goals is unacceptable. Cope harder hypocrite

            I’m not the hypocrite here…neither of us are doing anything that would protect the American population from a rapist insurrectionist corrupted by Russia, I’m just admitting it while you’re pretending your impotent wails are doing anything so you can look down on everyone else.

      Psh, as a leftist I’ll have you know we’ve done a lot more than complain. We went to a few protests, wrote a couple emails, and boycott stores we hardly shopped at in the first place.

      I can’t speak to your town, but the leftist orgs in my area are organizing a number of efforts to help feed & house people, along with any number of events to improve the area for the people living in it. They’re also working on the political side to push for ranked-choice voting, challenging voter suppression efforts, etc.

      Just because you’re not paying attention doesn’t mean they aren’t putting in the work.
