Still sick of this blaming apathetic voters for the clear failure of the Democratic Party.

Bruh, a third of the country sat at home and did nothing as fascism, openly stated, ran to claim all levers of power in the government. If you think voter apathy isn't a serious contribution in this issue, I don't know what the fuck to tell you.

You had mentioned that harm mitigation trumps all moral consideration of choice. That’s short term thinking, one that has gotten us in this mess.

Sorry, am I suppose to prioritize the feelies of people who abstained over the millions of marginalized people who are going to die because of this administration?

Sorry our lives aren't pure enough to be worth your fucking vote.

If democrats want to play chicken putting ‘their’ progressive voting base against their neoconservative principles, that is a failure on them.

This was the most left-leaning Dem platform in fucking decades.

But hey, anything to avoid responsibility for voters ushering in fascism, right?
