If Dems CAN'T BOTHER to put up and/or groom decent candidates who are capable competing and Trump wins re-election, how is all of this my fault when I'm still voting for whatever worthless bastard the Dems put up like a fucking dummy year after year? Riddle me that, Batman.
If you are going to use terms like "worthess bastard", you alone do not define an election, no, so in that context, it isn't your fault. But I don't see how your language helps democrats win. Maybe you need to take Obama's advice and say, "Don't boo, vote". Was he a horrible President?
Now what do you think Obama would say to democrats no matter whom we nominate? I'd doubt he'd say, "fuck it", or "don't vote for that asshole."
Brian, please understand that I don't need you to "explain" this importance of Supreme Court appointments to me or make condescending appeals of What Would Obama Do like I'm a stupid child.
I don't know how to make it more clear to you that I VOTE in every goddamned election I am able to, and I get out the vote. Now you're demanding that I pretend to like whoever the Dems toss into the ring and lie to myself as well.
I think that's a bit too much to ask of me, tbh.
Black atheists are heavily involved in political activism and made a coordinated effort to STOP the Dems from bleeding black voters this last election cycle, because we know what's on the line. Do you think we compelled folks to support the Dems for just one more election cycle by continuing to sugar-coat shit and blowing MORE smoke up their asses? No, Brian. Not possible anymore. Those days are nearing an end.
I "talk" this way because it's imperative that Dems WAKE THE FUCK UP and play this game like they want to win. Business as usual isn't gonna cut it anymore. And I'm not going to join you in this la-la land of supporting loser candidates who have no path to victory, just because it makes you "feel" better.
It is what it is.
