    I have addressed these points in this comment section multiple times.

    Yes, with “leverage power we don’t have against people who would rather lose than stop throwing people under the bus.”

      We do have this power. We elected Joe Biden in 2020. Your argument pretends we don’t at the expense of minorities and our ability to prevent the worst outcomes of climate change.

        And oh shucky dern, his hands were always conveniently tied. Except when it came time to sell weapons for genocide.

        Democrats consider minorities expendable in their unending quest for Republican votes.

          You don’t actually care about minorities. Even more people would dead by now under four years of Trump. That’s immaterial to you.

          So do you. Except you want moral victory over the Democrats.

            I’ve spent the past few decades wanting that party to move to the left and voting for them. They did what you wanted instead and moved to the right.
