    I mean, I get the disenfranchisement. It hurts.

    But these people either don’t understand the election system, or don’t care about the insane damage a shift to the far right at multiple levels the US is facing of we don’t stand up to MAGA again in the general election at every level.

    I’ll firmly support anyone running on a democratic-socialist platform in the primaries, but pretending they don’t need a “D” next to their name in the general election is just stupid.

    Until we fix how voting works in the US, this is the reality.

      It’s a shitty system that’s run by billionaires, but you still have to make a logical decision… I mean eating Arby’s is bad, but eating shit is worse.
