With Dems there’s always an excuse to do nothing and hope really hard for vague change later.

Yes, the dems do nothing. This is better than Republicans, who do a lot of bad shit. Voting dem won’t fix issues, it will just prevent many more from cropping up. What fixes issues is grassroots praxis.

I too, like vague undefined concepts that obfuscate real potential solutions.
This, I keep telling people this…
No Democrats will not fix anything, yes we should still vote for them.
It’ll be easier to grassroots change if we don’t have Republicans, who will not only react negatively to grassroots (As opposed to Democrats who are more malleable), but prove every day that they can go further right than “We should literally hunt the poor for sport.”
