“A bunch” is roughly three. Sinema, Fetterman, and, uh…
If you can’t name more than two Senators… Jesus, dude. Maybe start with Henry Cuellar and Bob Menendez. Ritchie Torres. Elissa Slotkin. Eric Swalwell. Josh Gottheimer. Do I really need to make you the full list?

Whenever there is a democratic majority, just enough Democrats will turn to make any actual change impossible, like a public option with Obama. Or when the blue dog Democrats fucked healthcare reform under Clinton. It’s happened every time and will continue to happen because the ratchet effect is a feature that always ends in facism and oligarchy, which is where you make your real money.

The ratchet effect is real, but it’s because when the Dems have a majority they’re relying on West Virginia. Republicans kiss the ring or they’re kicked from politics, just look at Ted Cruz.

Yeah it’s always something, and it’s always gonna be something. And that thing is oligarchy.

They’re relying on a billionaire scion of a coal dynasty. Plenty of working class labor friendly people in WV. But the Dem Senate committee won’t touch any of them.

Is that why Biden got more progressive change through than any prior president despite record breaking political resistance?
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
He did not. He got more “bipartisan” changes, and we’ve lowered the bar for what that means
Natanael@infosec.pub 2 weeks ago
Where’s your bar?

Biden is only progressive to those who consider genocide to be progress.
You support absolutely nothing bur genocide and that will never change.
Like every last centrist.
Now bring the gaslighting and abuse.
