I see most other countries with reliable public transportation meaning they were not impacted by inflation costs of vehicles and insurance. I see most other countries with socialized healthcare meaning they were not impacted by inflation costs of health insurance, premiums, co-pays and healthcare in general. I see most other countries have much better protections for renters which makes home ownership less of a necessity and therefore less impacted by inflation there.
Newsflash, people don't look at the GDP and go "Oh my life is great!"
You realize this kind of response just makes people ask if our "democracy" is even worth defending at this point. If discussions about supporting genocide "don't matter" then it's already over. We lost.
Biden and establishment democrats will never allow this. I really wish people would stop saying this as if it's some kind of viable solution. It has no more chance of becoming reality than medicare for all with the current power structures in place. They either need to change or we need a different approach.
Kinda irrelevant though. The Democratic party is our only real opportunity to defeat the Republican party. If the behavior of establishment Democrats, the ones who control the party, is knee capping our ability to do that it must be addressed.
And where is this ‘proof’ domestic tech companies illegally influence American elections?
God it's impossible to keep up with people who are obsessed with defending the problems within the Democratic party. Is this not what happened in the 2016 general election now? I can't keep up with the shifting narratives used to excuse the failures of establishment Democrats.
Disinformation from establishment Democrats is enabling the Republican party. We can hate Republicans all we like but establishment Democrats are trying to walk this tightrope between fascism and worker empowerment. Every time they lose their balance they shift to the right. We will be unable to defeat the Republican party until we root out the corruption of the Democratic party.
If you're only celebrating things that benefit other people the rest of your life must be pretty sweet. Unless you're trying to tell me you're suffering and in spite of that you don't care you're not seeing anything directly benefit you.
The reason I'm here is to make sure people understand why we're not going to vote for Biden. I've provided some examples of things Biden could do differently that would change my mind. I'm here to combat these completely false narratives that "progressives and leftists will never be satisfied" and "they aren't reliable voters"
We can be reasoned with and we are reliable voters. I keep being told democracy is about compromise so here's the opportunity for Biden and Biden's supporters to compromise. If they're unwilling to do that they must not think democracy is all that valuable.
Lol. Oh, there it is "I'm not defending the system I'm just defending the people who have played a huge part in shaping that system."
So I'll go back what I was saying earlier. You're defending Democrats because you've benefited from their ineptitude while quality of life deteriorates for the rest of us.
What's really sad is that you think what you're doing is going to change anyone's mind about how they're going to vote.
You can be angry at people like me accusing Joe Biden of supporting genocide but if you need our votes the choice in front of you is pretty simple. Keep defending Biden and risk democracy, or do everything you can to get Biden to compromise with us.
Manchin/Sinema could not have stopped Democrats from using the reconciliation bill as a bargaining chip to pass the BBB. It was not called for by Pelosi, Biden or any establishment Democrat for one simple reason: They didn't care and expected voters to just show up anyway.
