But that is literally superior to making things worse. It's not about feeling anything, it's about outcomes.
At some point things need to get better.
So we need a party that is interested in change instead of stagnation.
The DNC has been stagnating and rotting my whole life.
Nothing has gotten meaningfully better under their leadership.
I wouldn't say nothing, but yes your core argument is true. That doesn't invalidate what I said however.
You shouldn't make arguments for things to not get better
That is what you are saying when you reject solutions to the problem.
I'm not doing either of those things. I'm pointing out that things staying the same is preferable to them getting worse. Of course positive change is also better than stagnation. Those are both true. It's a pretty simple scale IMO, progress > stagnation > regress. I don't see where the misunderstanding is coming from; do you think I wouldn't prefer progress?
