Look
I know the Democrats are far from perfect.
Large parts of them are neoliberal, capitalistic and at least financially clear right-wingers. And they often do much less than they could when on power.
But DUDE! There is a huge difference between a centrist party that doesn’t fulfill what it promises and should do, and a literal fascist party trying to overthrow democracy and attempting a genocide at trans people, not even two mention their racism, homophobia and other horrible positions.
They are not one evil. There is one not very good party where many people can rightfully be disappointed and one literal nightmare horrible straight up evil party. They’re not the same.
The sad reality is that the minority groups will always be targeted. Culture wars and identity politics are distractions, the bigger picture would be coming together along class lines (workers vs. wealthy).
Looking at the long term, a person who was at the fore front of civil rights will help much more, not voting for the status quo.
Fascists are not stopped by lying to the public on how well Biden is doing. Which is what the democrats keep doing, at a certain point it will stop working.
Thank you for your input!
