My impression is that contrary to the headline, this isn’t a young vs old thing, but a follows-the-news vs doesn’t-follow-news thing

I was seeing posts weeks ago about “how do you expect the Democrats to do anything if you don’t vote them into power” , and I see this and get mad thinking, this is why people aren’t voting for you, this is why so many voters are mad at you, you have the power to do something, anything and your reply is “I’m sorry I called the GOP bastards” when the GOP has no problem calling you literal baby eaters.
Shockingly enough, there’s things called “primaries” where you can show the fuck up and get these fossils out for people who actually act in the best interest of their citizenry.
The catch being the “showing the fuck up” part.
This assumes the party allows a primary challenger to any arbitrary seat. Usually they don’t for safe seats. Or at risk seats. Or any seats where the currently elected member is making them money.
Yes, we can dither and make excuses all we like, but if we never try, nothing happens anyways.
Might as well try, yeah? Unless of course we just want to complain about how the system is unfair and not actually do anything to change it.
And you think doing the exact same thing over and over is “trying”?
We’ve been doing things to try to change the system, but mainstream Dems, white liberals, tend to call us radical criminals, terrorists, and damaging to progress. When we try we get shot in the back. When we try we get anonymously reported by someone ‘that agrees with our ideals but not our actions’.
So hopefully now that you people will be suffering too, you might not stab us in the back this time when things get a little uncomfy for white liberals.
