Yes. Yes I am.

The Democrats have been ineffectual at best, complicit at worst.

The DNC also actively shuts down all grassroots movements, and any third party. So they don't allow their competitors to exists, and then they do nothing while they're in power.

Am I the only one that remembers what it was like before 2016? Am I the only one noticing the slide away from democracy no matter who is in power?

You seem like you clearly don't remember more than 30 seconds. Obama Era gave us Medicaid, would have given us single payer but Republicans blocked it in the senate. Bush Era gave us the war for Iraqi Oil Fields and the judges who decided the fucking Citizens United decision. Then, to protect Citizens United, the Republican Senate denied Obama a SCOTUS pick in an election year and promptly gave one extra to Trump in an election year.

But BoTh tHE saMe

I think you misunderstood my point because you actually just said what I meant but with more clarity.

Yet more evidence of the 30 second memory.

Lol we are in agreement about something and you're still mad about it.

That's all I need to know.

We never agreed on anything. You think both sides are bad and I've outlined repeatedly how one is very clearly demonstrably a force of good.
