This racist bitch is proof that Trump and MAGA did not happen in a vacuum: she IS America. - the racist, bigoted, fascist America that this nation truly is.

Tone it down a bit. Most of us didn't vote for him, if only because a significant chunk simply didn't vote.
But "bitch" is a bit beyond the pale for Beehaw. That's objectively not Beeing Nice.
-
When a majority of Americans vote for fascism, that makes America a fascist nation. You may be a nice guy but you're not in the majority, so you're not representative of this country.
As for being nice, why should I be nice with this piece of refuse human being?
-
I think the world as a whole is done with being nice about Americans. Patience thoroughly depleted. Frustration to the fore. Could almost have pretended The West Wing wasn’t just a Hollywood cokehead’s fantasy, but not any more.

There was a time when I thought Gillibrand was good people but that was a long time ago.

In Trumpian Washington, swamp drains you.

That the establishment is flailing tells you this is a movement with legs. I don't think they can shut it down like 2016 Bernie, so ... it'll be interesting to see what comes next.
Very few revolutions succeed overnight (without then making things worse than before). The way that people gave up after Bernie got cheated, and figured "welp let's leave things on autopilot then, I am discouraged now that we know the people on top are willing to cheat to hold onto power, that's unfair and I don't want to play anymore", is some lazy soft first world part time activism crap.
(And yes, I am equally part of the problem, not trying to point fingers just agreeing with you more or less. Things build over time. The more you push the more they build.)
The great Bernie blocks of 2016 and 2020 did not destroy my hope for revolution, but they did prove to me that the national DNC will never be the route to that revolution. Mamdani is showing us the way: grassroots local politics, build the base by pushing progressive policies on the local level. I suspect the establishment Dems still have more levers to pull if they want to block Mamdani's policies once he is in office. If we want revolution, we gotta support him and fight to prevent these blocks. Primary any Rep or senator that tries to prevent him from helping the common person.
EDITED - (this changed a bit while I replied but I don't like to delete things as I find it confusing later but needless thanks for expanding a bit and making it more clear that people did work for change and continue to)
who gave up? As far as the canidate in one primary we went forward but that was the start of a lot of momentum in primaries for progressive candidates. Every time I see something about giving up it feels so disingenuous to those who while working within the system still try to change it.
