Progressive Politics

This was the last time i vote for a dem candidate. they pay mouth service to progressive policies, but at the end of the day, they do next to nothing for us.

back in in the 2010s when obama was president, there was a time when the dems controlled the house AND the senate at the same time. we still didn't get any real progressive shit passed. the only thing i can think of is daca and obamacare. we didn't get single payer, universal nationalized healthcare, we didn't get robust protections for the working class, we didn't responsibly pull out of iraq or afghanistan, the environment is fucked and there's nothing that we can do about it anymore, big banks got bailed out at the expense of the working class, university cost was and has continued to be at an all time high. They didn't fix the gerrymandering the gop has been getting away with. They didn't set term limits on justices. they didn't fight back when the Rs blocked merick garland. They did nothing to fix the broken electoral system. They did nothing to fix the economic policies set in the reagan era. they did nothing to set a law banning PACs, lobbyists or special interests. the only thing the dem party has going for it is that they are not literally the party of fascists.

2 weeks before the election wasn't the time to start getting excited about a third party. The time for third partying is now, and keep it up until the next one. I'm not going to forgive the dem party for their inaction and they should absolutely be punished by no longer existing as the opposition party.
