    Aaaaand the DNC is cooked. I do think I’m done now.

    Who knows; maybe we technocratic weirdo socialistic nerds on the fediverse can figure out a way to socially engineer a less shitty future, and that’ll be a political party. Or the idea of that, at least. Food for thought, or something.

      You want to know something crazy? In the US you actually get to decide who a party puts up for election. It’s called the Primaries.

      Yes, I’m being very unsubtle with this hint.

      Vote them out. Vote progressives. There are a lot of problems with the Dems, but the biggest one is that the voters never fucking show up (especially not in midterms). Y’all just stood back and let the party be captured by do nothing centrists, then complained that its full of do nothing centrists.
