    Never forget FDR wanted Social Security to be universal healthcare… And so did the people who voted for him.

    “Moderates” just kept telling he had to wait, and when he kept getting elected they changed the rules to get rid of him.

    It’s why I hate people like Biden still say “it’s too soon”

    We’ve literally been told that longer than Biden has been alive, and that’s a long fucking time.

    They’re never gonna say it’s time.

      It would’ve been time if folks under 35 voted in the primaries at the same rates as those over 65.

      Until that happens, yeah, it’s probably going to be the elderly deciding when it’s time.

      This is why I hate the Democratic party almost as much as I hate the Republicans. They’re not the same, but they’re both scum and I want them all to shit themselves to death. Unfortunately, we’re stuck with the Dems as the closest thing the GOP/KKK has to an effective opposition.

        From a European perspective, the USA is effectively a single party state, and within that party there is a right wing and a very right wing.

          I know. But try telling that to centrists and liberals in the US. They just give you shit for thinking “both sides are the same”. No, you ignorant shitfountains, they’re not the same. It’s neoliberals on one side and neo-Nazis on the other, and neither of them give a fuck about anything but rimming their billionaire donors.
