The Democratic Party as a whole is like milk in your fridge that's a week past its "best by" date.
The Republican Party is milk that a dog vomited on a Texas in July sidewalk.
We're drinking one of them, because no alternative is possible in the near term.
It's possible to vote for Democrats in 2026 and '28 and '30 and '32 while we build an alternative that can have electoral success, or takeover the Democratic Party from within or heck turn the Republican Party into a party worth supporting...
I cannot tell you how sick of these pithy little infantalising pseudo-analogies I am.
No, genocide is not like "milk that is past it's expectation date". Talk like a damn adult.
How about a nice contrived trolley problem metaphor. Everyone loves those.
Yeah. Drop another adult word to prove how strong you are!
Unsurprising that you consider talking like an adult to be worthy of criticism
If all the milk in my fridge is spoiled, I throw it out. Maybe try that?
Aye, we need a new system.
Here you go. This is an option. There is historical precedent. The tea party, to name one example.
Great. Now you're dying of thirst and the only milk left is the dog throw up vomit.
You can't game the system by just saying you would do it better. That's not how it works.
How can anyone read this childish nonsense and still think liberals are serious people?
Genocide supporting monster. You should be forced to drink dog vomit.
Just because you're an overgrown child who sees everything through primary school metaphors doesn't mean other people aren't doing things, by the way.
Fucking deranged that you Nazi fucks care more about deaths that haven't actually happened then the ones that have.
So keeping with your analogy, you're going against ever bit of legitimate survival advice from every single person that has any knowledge on survival, and you think you're still making the right choice?
In any situation where clean water isn't an option you still don't drink things that will sicken you.
You can work to purify whatever liquid you have (which can be the easiest or worst option), you can leave the area and try to find safer sources of water, or you can piss in your own mouth for a while and try to do one of the other two things in the mean time.
Voters like you, however, drink the spoiled milk, diarrhea in your own mouths, while promising if you keep doing it you'll get around to purifying your own milk laden shits if you just keep funding genocide.
You can't change a rotted system from within anymore than you can survive on contaminated water. At best you're making your life so much worse while deluding yourself into thinking you're doing the right thing.
Ok awesome, you're across the street yelling saying to drink better milk without actually having any better milk. That doesn't make the situation any better
More like I'm showing you a 150 year old water purification technique that is proven to work and you're concerned it might not taste as good and requires too much work so you'll just keep drinking your own recycled shit and cry that there's no solutions.
Yeah, you're showing me a picture of that pure milk as if it's a choice to drink it.
Unless you can actually give me that pure 150 year refined technique and not just say it can be better, shut up about it. Especially when you demanding the pure milk means we have to throw out the week old milk leaving us only the dog vomit milk.
Genocide supporters like you deserve to drink dog vomit.
Yes, cause supporting the perfect candidate left us in the best situation today.
Ukraine definitely has full support from all of its allies because we made sure to back the candidate nobody fucking head of, right?
You support genocide, you deserve to be in the worst situation.
And what a fucking surprise that out of literally every issue you could have picked you went with "maintaining the Ukrainian forever war"
No, I voted for the option that would kill less people. You and your side let the side win that wants to kill more people
I may be bad, but you're worse
No, you voted for the one that you would continue to deny genocide under
How, specifically did I do that, you dumb fucking fascist?
Could have unified to save lives, but instead you helped it fracture so we have an orange in charge
It's on you
Ah yes, it's on me, someone who can't vote and doesn't live in a swing state, because I didn't "unify to save lives"
You fucking dipshit
Yes. It is on you.
Someone who will willingly go online to try to swing people to vote for someone, or else they'll get called a fucking fascist.
Your fucking words and meaning can and most likely have changed someone's view point.
So yeah, it is on you
And you can't use the well I'm not oll enough if your currently talking politics. Grow up
Bahahaha.
blueMAGA shitlibs are the dumbest motherfuckers on earth
Great. You just want people to drink spolied milk and are gloating because they don't get a meaningful choice. You don't care if you have to also have the dog vomit as long as no one gets a better choice than the spoiled milk, ever.
No, id much rather everyone on the block have better milk all around. But while you and your neighbors are refusing to drink the week old milk and dying of thirst, I'm over here trying to come up with an actual game plan with my spoiled milk instead of just screaming at others to drink better milk without actually having any source of better milk.
I don't see your cow anywhere, but yet you act as if one's going to magically appear cause you want it to.
Your positions indicate otherwise.
So far it looks like you're gloating that no one has anything decent to drink.
No, I'm just so fucking tired of neighbors yelling how much better the milk is everywhere else like we don't fucking know that. And unless you actually have a plan to get better milk, just saying drink better milk and throw that out doesn't really mean much.
So you just want people to shut up.
Well, step one is to quit ordering people to be silent about drinking your shitty spoiled milk.
80 million Dem voters (depicted as "crowd of NPCs" meme): "We are voting for Democrats in the near term because there is no other option"
