Imagine that the NFL made a rule change that allowed every team to have an extra three men on the field during the game — but half of the NFL teams, protesting the new rule as “wrong” and “too much of a deviation from fairness and norms” refused to add the three players to their own lineups.Who’d be...

    Dems had 4 years to do something and they wasted it on supporting genocide instead. That’s the reality of these people.

      It’s kinda funny that the only criticism you ever have is towards democrats, but you never say anything at all about republicans.

        He wants Democratic voters to withdraw in apathy or exhaust themselves on some “pure” but ineffective effort, and employs shame tactics to demotivate.

        It’s pretty transparent.

        What are you going to criticize Republicans for? Sure, they’re morally bankrupt and destroying the country, but they’re doing exactly what their dipshit voters asked for and succeeding beyond their wildest dreams.

        Democrats are the ones who are being laughably inept at what they claim to want.

        Sigh.

        “Republicans are bad” is a tautology, much like “Nazis are bad”. People generally don’t say “Nazis are bad” whenever they talk about WWII, because it’s implied by them being Nazis.

          Why don’t you have anything good to say about Neville Chamberlain, Vidkun Quisling, or Philippe Pétain?!

          I think there’s a lot of evidence that quite a number of people do not think “Nazis are bad.” Maybe we should start saying it more often actually.

            We live in a society of nazi values. Literally doing a genocide. People are constantly told that this is good… What else should we expect?

    They need to start an interstate compact like with the national popular vote. Until enough states sign on, gerrymander, suppress votes or encourage votes. Do whatever is necessary to get the seats. You don’t get brownie points for being fair, you get them for getting shit done that actually affects people’s lives.
