If this doesn't help convince people that Democrats are Blue Republicans, I don't know what will. She's literally part of the other party.

Keep on licking boots. That'll fix things. You've been doing the same song and dance for 40+ years and what's happened? The rich keep getting richer and everyone else keeps getting worse off. You're not going to get the results you claim to want by doing the same thing over and over and over and over.

She was running against Trump, the PAC stays against Trump... I mean yeah it's all a shit show but it's not that unreasonable. He is (and should always be) a red letter shitty candidate.

Being one-note hyperbolic just makes people disregard what you say. You don't think people wanting to avoid full fledged fascism might unite even the polarized?

The rich keep getting richer and everyone else keeps getting worse off. You’re not going to get the results you claim to want by doing the same thing over and over and over and over.

Wait, so your suggestion to this fix is to vote for Trump that gave big PERMANENT tax breaks to corporations and moderate TEMPORARY tax breaks to the rest of us? How do you square that logic?

"When 2025 draws to a close, so will many of the sweeping Trump-era GOP tax breaks established by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017. While the legislation made some tax cuts to corporate profit permanent, lowered individual tax rates will expire on Dec. 31, 2025, and will revert to pre-TCJA levels." source

Where exactly did I say to vote for Trump?

My saying doing the same thing over and over and over was perhaps too vague. I meant we shouldn't keep voting for Republicans AND Democrats and expecting them to fix things because neither have any interest in doing so. They only care about making themselves rich and their donors rich.

So... who should we vote for instead?

No no no, you should just keep throwing ad hominems at people and whining. Don't you understand what they're saying!?

They've been doing it for 40 years and it's working!

If this doesn’t help convince people that Democrats are Blue Republicans, I don’t know what will.

I already accept this. I also know what happens if the Red Republicans get to have power. That's only a line that accelerationists would want to take.

More to the point, we won't change things merely by voting, but voting has a purpose.
