    That can’t be because Democrats are horribly corrupt liberals! All my progressive leftist buddies said so

        That’s good. There are a number of lemmings who claim to identify strongly with socialism and communism who have made many comments to the effect that they will not vote against trump because the democrats are too weak or corrupt to pass healthcare for all, universal basic income, and a women’s healthcare Constitutional amendment, among other demands for instant gratification such as a “presidential decree” for ranked-choice voting.

        When it is pointed out that Democrats are the only viable party working toward those aims, that the other viable party is explicitly working to destroy the possibility of those things, and not supporting the former is de facto supporting the latter, they double down on some other nonsense.

        If you haven’t seen it - good.

    As they should!

    But absolutely garbage tier article. They make multiple absolutely wild claims about the world that aren’t even really directly related to the article’s subject. Seems like a completely conspiratorially minded far-right source, and I can’t find another reporting on the same story. I hope they’re able to report basic facts correctly despite their extreme bias
