People hate when DNC or Biden are rightfully criticized.
Like we all knew they were dumb but how dumb enough to miss getting a presidential candidate on ballots because of when they picked their convention dates
Criticism makes people fear a bad election result. Reflexive defense or down votes happen. He’ll, I’ve reflexively cautioned against not voting.
We’re somewhere that doesn’t keep global score. It’s nice when people agree with upvotes, but truth is truth.
And I’ll vote Biden because much as I despise some of the recent acts… Things could be much worse.
I have kids. They deserve democracy. I don’t have the privilege of pretending I give no fucks or I can burn it all down in protest. My fucks just aren’t always perfectly aligned with the DNC.
They almost always align with the Bern tho.
Shrug. The Good Place got it right. No getting out of this place pure.
There’s a big push that voters should never ask anything of politicians…
They want us to just show up and vote for our “team”
So anyone that talks about how the party can change to get more votes, gets down votes.
Their not interested in getting more votes, they want more obedient voters.
But just because I understand what’s happening, doesn’t mean I understand why they’re doing it.
They say all that matters is beating Republicans, but if that’s what they’re trying for, you’d think it would mean they want the party to run popular candidates.
Dunno why the down votes. Looks like you’re giving fucks in all the right places.
DNC needs to stop making the election process a game they play. The primary (and having a real one) matters.
At least super delegates are less of a thing now.
Edit: on -> in
