Always remember: It’s not Democrats vs Republicans. It’s the poor vs rich.
The wealthy have unbreakable class solidarity. If only we could be more like them in that aspect.
The timing here is what makes this move particularly baffling…
It’s only baffling if you cling to the ever-more-laughable belief that the Democrats are any sort of meaningful opposition.
If you instead simply shift to the ever-more-supported belief that they are in fact essentially oligarchic co-conspirators, then the timing makes perfect sense.
Yea, both Democrats and Republicans have a pretty solid history of voting in lock step on matters of giving themselves more power.
And they expect to control the White House soon. Why not set yourself up with more power for when you get power?
This goes out to anyone still thinking there are some good people among the very rich. They‘re all robbers and thieves without a conscience.
Of course they did, because that’s who Democrats are. They are controlled opposition that only talk about opposing Republicans, in the end they legislate exactly like them.
something something illusion of choice
Not surprising, considering how spineless they’ve always been.
Spine has nothing to do with it, they just don’t work for us.
In this case it’s not mere spinelessness, they were pushing for this before Trump to server the interests of their corporate masters (copyright lobby mostly, though big tech would also benefit).
Yes. US democrats are corporate. Not nearly as far to the left as the media would have you believe. I’m not even convinced we have a true left wing.
I wasn’t talking about spinelessness toward Trump (exclusively).
It’s BAFFLING why Democratic Voters are Abandoning the Party. BAFFLING!
Some people actually believe that a group of wealthy people are working to improve the lives of the working class. That’s the baffling part.
