A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

No we've been saying this since kkkopmala got the nomination WITHOUT A PRIMARY.

She was chosen because she was Vice President. Not that it matters much. People were furious that government lied about mental state of Biden that also was fucking obvious to everyone. They should've ran primaries but they claimed he's fine and lost by putting the least voted candidate on previous primaries. Not even sure what they expected.

Doesn't help that they also are constantly pushing back a legit good candidates.

You'd think people would vote for DNC to just not let Trump come back. And I can see why they would. But these constant lies, schemes and general situation in the country made many to not to go to the polls. Like if you know your team lies to you, but the other team also does and is fucking nuts, would you still give your vote for party that lied to you on many occasions? That didn't listen to you to begin with?

After last elections if people see DNC as "the good guys", that's a Stockholm syndrome. It is time to change. And if DNC won't listen to people, nothing will change.

Centrists sent the message to progressives that their votes were neither needed nor sought.

Until harris lost, then their perfect candidate was let down by the people who tried to kick the football and missed. After all, they pointed out how many times they tried to kick the football before and how many times it was yanked away. Which means they wanted trump to win.
