Right right, it's a neat graphic, but it kind of ignores people who remember multiple presidential elections.
If we vote Democrat and then the Democrats don't do jack s*** then what surprise is it that people stay home next time? Obama was weak. Biden was weak. They could have pushed policies that would benefit the average American citizen, and they mostly didn't. The party threw us away, not the other way around.
And I still think people should vote, but you don't get to blame them for the Democrats being s*****.
It's like they're trying to force only two options- Either Democrats are beyond reproach and you have to vote for them, or you hate democracy. I'm not allowed to be critical of Dems and have voted for them. I'm not allowed to call them complicit or call out their lack of resistance.
I'm going to be very critical of Dems and I'm going to keep a close eye out for any feasible alternatives. I'm hard out if they put AOC up.
