The DNC cited a procedural concern, but Hogg said it is “impossible to ignore the broader context” of his criticisms.

    I think we need a different color to vote for. Definitely not green, because that party is for shit. But Democrats are functionally useless at this point.

    I think I would rather throw my vote away on somebody who challenges the status quo in a progressive way under the Democratic socialist party (or just the plain socialist party) rather than vote for some goddamn Democrat who’s going to uselessly wring their hands and then go home to their million dollar mansion and cry about how unfair people are being to their useless ass.

    Voting blue hasn’t helped cause they think it’s your only option so they don’t have to actually do anything to earn your vote other than being “not a Republican”.

    FUCK THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY

    I’M NOT VOTING FOR ANOTHER MODERATE ASSHOLE

        If the fascism is going to happen anyway, which it will under the current democratic strategy, I would rather it happen now while I’m young enough to fight and not 10 years from now while I’m old and decrepit. (Well, more old and decrepit.)

          LMFAO. Do you have any idea how naive this sounds? More likely than not you would be living under Fascism for the entire remainder of your life. The Germans who voted for Hitler in 1933 and were in East Germany had to wait 66 years until the year 1989 before they were allowed to choose their own leaders again. The people who supported the Communists in China who came to power in 1949 were all fucked for the entire remainder of their lives. And now their descendants 76 years later are still fucked in 2025 because of the foolishness of the people in 1949.
