      I can’t imagine being so braindead as to blame progressives for not meeting in the middle with literal anti democratic christo-fascists.

      You’re right. It’s actually just our fault that we want the country to not be a shithole.

      The US Democrats are basically the conservative of any other EU countries. There are progressives among them but they are often fed to the wolves and sold as a nuisance by their own party. Think AOC and other justice dems.

      The entirety of the rest of the western world is more left leaning than US politics. The Dems are center right in any other country. The only reason for that is decades and decades of capitalist propaganda programming the electorate. An electorate that when asked about specific issues is largely much more open to leftist solutions than the bought politicians they vote for.

      What a fascist troll. All that in response to me saying the DNC isn’t progressive enough. You’re actually unhinged dude. You don’t know the first thing about my politics. Calm the hell down.
