  The DNC are the progressive party. They promote taxing the rich and removing money from politics.

    If they truly wanted money out of politics then they’d stop begging people for donations every single election cycle.

      So the RNC are allowed to fundraise and hold concerts and ad campaigns but the DNC are not?

    What makes you think they want to remove money from politics? The Dems made $1.5bn last election.

      It’s core policy platform, page 48 of their official manifesto and it’s been publicly stated by pretty much every DNC to reverse Citizens United. They’re also the only party to try to pass any antibribery and anticorruption laws in the last couple of decades, such was the case with HR 1 For the People Act.

        No no. Politicans still want all that lovely money.

        The dems put forward the proposal on page 48 to say that they want transparency, because that fucks over the Republicans more than them.

      Not really, it’s the party’s core platform. If they had 60 senators it would be done. If they had even 51 we would have at least seen minor progress but instead they have 45 now and not more than 48 in over 10 years.

        I don’t think you can earnestly say that with the chicinery that kept Bernie from tying the nomination in favor of the heir apparent in Clinton (Bernie and AOC are pulling huge crowds in trump country). They again pulled that shit with having Biden run twice when he was obviously infirmed. He only stepped aside for the young after he did that disastrous debate. Lastly, the gamesmenship the democrats pull on their own members in congress?

        The party establishment is focused on dying on the hill of placating to the rich. That is fundamentally against progress. Hence the diet fascism stance the dems take. We we have 2 rught-wing parties in America.

    No. I don’t know where they find folks like you, but holy shit. Yes, the DNC is better than the RNC, by a lot. But, both of them suck the dick of the corporate douchebag. The RNC just has little pompoms with “cocksucker” printed on them and likes to wear makeup when big daddy richie blows a load in their face, while the Democrats pretent to wince.

    They both suck. Republicans just need to end first.

      I know exactly where they get uninformed assholes like you with no knowledge of legislation or vote histories.

      • dick_fineman@discuss.online ⁨14⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        YEAH! SO VOTE DNC Because something something corporate…oh shit they just took another donation from Tesla…something something regulation…something something “we need to mend fences”.

        Anyway, do you laugh when you go fuck yourself, clown?

        They enemy of your enemy isn’t always your friend. Criticising the Democrats doesn’t necessarily mean supporting the GOP.

        are you a child?

        You have a child’s understanding of politics. And a child’s temperament… and a child’s “meme” response. You are a child.

    They promote taxing the rich and removing money from politics.

    And then do none of that and support genocide instead.

    The Dems are the conservatives, they want the status quo with maybe some mild reforms.

    The Republicans apparently are the radicals, they want to change society (in a direction that I think is completely stupid, but still)
