Great. I already vote in every election and primary. In the primaries, party leadership heavily supports anti-choice anti-labor pro-nra candidates like Cuellar. When their efforts to shut progressives out at the primary level fail, they pull the rug out from under them by withholding funding like they did with Vallejo.

Don't lecture me for not being as happy as you are with a party that fights progressives and not Republicans.

Have you tried becoming a State Delegate and influencing the Party Chair? That's a way to influence who gets to decide about supporting whom, isn't it?

I love how centrists' answer to anyone pointing out the party's anti-progressive fuckery is "you're just not doing enough!"

I am definitely not a centrist. I am left and that in Europe but I have enough of people just always blaming others for not getting anything done. This is exactly what happens everywhere right now: People trying to convince voters that their votes don't matter and that will just lead to conservatives, fascists and far-right parties to win. Because they vote all the time.

Oh, you're from Europe?

Cool. Everything wrong with Europe is your fault because you're not involved enough.
