      billionaires fund democrats too lmao

      the fact that so many people (and presumably you) think “voting for the lesser evil” is the end all be all of political engagement is perhaps one of the bourgeoisie’s greatest victories

        Yeah it’s fucking wild that people are defending neoliberals so hard as if neoliberals didn’t just dick the whole shutdown.

      billionaires plan is to buy the current president or congress regardless of party and do whatever they want anyway, like they have been doing for decades.

      Democrats cannot be trusted. They will betray everyone as we have just seen with the government closure vote

        How can you blame the entire party for the actions of a few? Most Democrats, establishment and otherwise, seem really upset by what those senators have done

          You don’t think it’s suspicious that the only ones that voted with conservatives were the ones that won’t face retribution at the ballot box next year? That there’s most likely several people that voted “no” that just wanted to save face?

            That’s a problem with Schumer and Ossoff. Blaming this on all Democrats bereft of any evidence is the stupidest shit ever. It’s like you people fucking WANT fascism

            Who among those who voted to pass this bill will be up for reelection and who won’t?

              As far as the Democrats go, every single one that voted “yes” is not up for re-election. They will face no consequences for this.

              None of them are up for reelection until 2028 at the earliest. Two of them are retiring at the end of their current term. One of them is the minority whip. You know, party leadership.

          Because it’s always just enough.

          Most Democrats, establishment and otherwise, seem really upset by what those senators have done

          You seem way more upset at anyone who suggests that politicians aren’t being honest in the face of massive pushback.

          Is specifically selected members of Congress that were not seeking the election so they can distance themselves from the entire vote, they can say, look what they did. We wanted nothing to do with it.

          I don’t support the GOP, but the statement could be adjusted for them as well.

          Only Sith deal in absolutes.
