If the DNC had allowed a primary, this would have been the news cycle for the last 3 months. The instinct to micromanage everything and allow no real democracy because voters can’t be trusted A) led to them ordaining Biden, the worst monster to occupy the White House since Andrew “Sharpknife” Jackson. And B) led to questions about his mental acuity eclipsing Trump’s overt decline, leading to a second Trump term, the very thing the DNC said we needed to short circuit democracy to avoid. Mission Accomplished, DNC! Heckuvajob, demmy!

I remember telling my friends that if they didn’t want it to be biden vote in the primary. They didn’t see the point. There were a lot of people who pretended the primary didn’t exist during it though. Poor Dean what’s his face. No one remembers he existed. I only remember half his name

He founded Talenti. And he could have brought the deliciousness and transparency of his ice cream to America… But seriously, he only ran because he is independently wealthy and was sick of being in congress. An AOC (not to lionize that class traitor) who in theory needs their paycheck in congress would NEVER have stepped out of line because the DNC doesn’t really allow primaries. Haven’t my whole life (now they at least in theory don’t blacklist companies that work with primary challengers, although I don’t trust a party that would have that policy to begin with to enact that reform).

You may have been born within the last 4 years, but the DNC basically cancelled the primary when it looked like Bernie was winning and Obama forced all non-Biden neolib shills out of the race because we must defeat Trump and Bernie CANNOT defeat Trump (despite what polling showed,as the DNC’s primary liability is losing it’s pre-Trump working class base) and then they cancelled the primary in 2024 BECAUSE they knew Biden wasn’t even 2020-level senile

You understand he’s not running now, right? The rest of the post is a non-sequitor because he’s not the candidate now.

Well here’s the funny thing with neolibs, when I say she should choose a different policy, she can’t because she’s not president even though she’s the candidate… Also, a political party is one brand, you can’t pretend it’s not, and Biden has created a brand association of DNC==horrifying image of war crime he egged on

The entire US government is the image of war crimes they egged on, regardless of party. Don’t act like you’re not immediately a war criminal by becoming president. Trump is a war criminal. So is Biden, and Obama, and every president before then with precious few exceptions.

I volunteered for Clinton in '92 for universal healthcare and gay rights and got the end of the social safety net and don’t ask don’t tell probably before you were born, you have bought into the Kang v Kodos system and don’t even realize (or get that reference because you were 8 in 1996)

I wasn’t.

It’s just that while there is a genocide going on in Gaza.

There’s a genocide roughly 10x as large going on in Ukraine, and that one is threatening to spill out in ww3, and nobody from Ukraine started it.

Russia is trying to make as much trouble in the world as it can to distract from Ukraine, and I’m willing to let Gaza keep going as it has for a while.

Yes, I’m a genocide-whatever-er, and I don’t care, because the other genocide is so much worse.

But as the ml-boys say: “If Gaza wants it to end, they just have to surrender to Israel”, like they say Ukraine should.
