Enjoy never seeing the left make gains in congress then, I guess. You're literally making my point.

Kicking Bernie, AOC, or Ilhan Omar to the curb will unquestionably set back the progressive movement in America. You can pressure them to get better, but for the love of god, pick... your... battles.

"MAGA Level Delusion" Democrats Not Believing Biden is Losing in Pollings

Any pollster worth their salt accounts for variables like this. In any case, the 2022 polls were historically accurate.

There's a lot of purity test nonsense happening in this thread. Next you're going to tell me that Bernie Sanders isn't actually DSA-adjacent because he also has supported Biden and Israel in the past.

For the record, I obviously disagree with their public backing of the President post-debate, but they are clearly doing it for strategic electoral reasons. They're putting the burden of dropping Biden on the moderates in the party so they can keep their hands clean. All of these progressives have come out publicly against Israel already. AOC straight up called it a genocide. What more do you want?

Stop burning bridges between our closest allies in congress. That same shit happened with Bowman and it was foolish.

NPR, WHY is the Biden story top when Epstein files release reveal Trump was engaged in pedophilic activities?! He needs to drop out.

akaWhisp
replied to hayasecond

There are very very few people still on the fence at this point. The only numbers that will really swing in either direction now are people who were going to stay home and may decide to come out and vote.

We need to see less "this is why Trump is bad" and more "the dems will enact xyz if elected" to convince these people to show up. Unfortunately Biden doesn't really have a platform nor any policy positions on his website so there's nothing for anyone to get excited about.

Yeah, I've been really disappointed in the gaming community ever since gamergate. It has since evolved into "THESE GAMES AND GAME COMPANIES ARE TOO WOKE!"

I don't even call myself a "gamer" anymore. There is too much baggage attached to it. People need to touch some fucking grace and realize there is an actual real diverse world outside the lands between.

I misinterpreted that comment. In any case, not every debate needs to give equal ground to both sides of an argument. Just because some people argue against gay rights doesn't mean that those people should be taken seriously.

The conflict is really not that complicated. It just has a long history. If you're getting bent by people using their platform to speak out in solidarity with a systematically oppressed people, you seemingly care more about your own personal comfort than human lives.

People said similar things about Colin Kaepernick when he kneeled during the national anthem. They couldn't stand the fact that he would use the NFL as a platform to protest America's systematic oppression of black people. Everyone who demanded he be fired is just a piece of shit and you'll never change my mind.

the abundance of "Free Palestine" remarks would have made me tune out of the stream too.

You're really just telling on yourself with that comment...

Amen. I got married in downtown Seattle and some of my relatives straight up refused to come because they heard Seattle was a "warzone". Absolute lunacy. Social media and local news has really done a number on the perception of crime.
