This isn't just politics ... I've gotten a 5 in a performance review and gotten a 0% raise as a result. The midterms were very much a reaction to Dobbs, not a referendum on Biden. It's confounding how anyone at the DNC saw the House loss as a sign that the plan was working.

Wait, you think this isn't the plan 100% working?

The larger goals of neoliberalism are beyond the scope of this post. I get what you're saying, but we're still trying to pretend the thin, shoddy veneer is walnut.

My mistake. Everything is very walnut in here!
