    Primaries? What primaries?

    But also, isn’t this meme you posted pretty ridiculous considering you admit that you would cast a vote to put trans people in camps if the situation was right?

      The primaries that are held every two years to decide nominations for Dem candidates, wherein some marginal percentage of people show up and the ones that do are overwhelmingly crusty old centrist ghouls because young progressives, I suppose, think they have better things to do?

          Primaries did happen in 2024, which is how the whole ‘uncommitted’ movement came about. The issue is that no one of substance ran because Biden was still seen as the best shot at defeating Trump - an idea in no small part peddled by Biden, mind you.

          No one wanted to vote for Magic Crystal Lady, and Cenk attempting to run despite being a naturalized citizen was a farce.
