I vote for whom I want in the primaries

Boomer Democrat voters in the 2020 primaries: That's cute you think you have a voice. We've already chosen a geriatric establishment white man.

I love how you all ignore all the terrible policy this man voted for as a senator.

Where is all this "incremental progress" you centerists always talk about? Is it in the room with us now?

He’s forgiven billions in student loan debt

Using a program signed into law by George W Bush. Does that mean Bush was also a progressive?

Biden, DNC, establishment Democrats and Boomer Democrat voters: Okay guys we need to figure out who to elevate in the 2028 Republican primaries who's just as vile as Trump so those uppity leftists will have to keep voting for our pro-corporate asses.

if it’s human-viewable it’ll also be computer-viewable

Sort of. If you raise a person to look at thousands pictures of random pixels and say "that's a fox" or "that's not a fox" eventually they'll make up a pattern to say if the random pixels are a fox or not. Meanwhile someone raised normally will take one look and go "that's just random pixels it's not a picture of anything". AI is still in that impressionable stage. So you feed it garbage and it doesn't know it's garbage.

Obviously you don't have a business degree.

The problem compounds as they post more and more content creating a feedback loop of terrible information.

Does that mean there are Democrats who aren't liberal?

Ok. Well I was against that too so maybe we agree on more than I assumed.

“Liberal” in America is literally synonymous with “progressive”. The entire point of the party is progress.

What are you even talking about? There are numerous Democrat politicians who don't label themselves as progressive.

Lol okay bud. Then tell me how you justify 44 Democrat senators, 36 Republican senators and Joe Biden working together to block the rail strike? I can't wait to observe your abilities as a mental contortionist.

"Authoritarian" would require that we, you know, have some authority. Which we don't.

Neolibs do. And they just used it to arrest a bunch of students and people protesting against a genocide.

You all project so fucking hard it's ridiculous.

by realistically evaluating your situation

Your only acceptable measure of that is if I vote for Biden which makes me unable to realistically evaluate my situation by definition. There's no point in making this argument. We aren't going to see things the same way. One of us has to compromise. If you can't see it's moderates and liberals turn to make some serious and material compromises leftwards then you never will.

Telling me it doesn’t apply isn’t going to change the way I view the situation or my decisions.

Yep and that Boomers are trash.

Biden, as infuriatingly slow as he is, seems to be gradually becoming less and less supportive of Israel

I wonder if political reflexes go as a person ages. 🤔

We've been there at least since Reagan.

Well Boomers do vote and they vote and they reliably vote to mortgage everybody's futures because they're a selfish trash generation.

"giving up" takes many forms.
