The Democrats are impotent even when they had a supermajority

Also the only people allowed to have their names show up in the primary are hand picked by the party, and the DNC/RNC are private organizations who don't legally have to hold a fair primary or even hold one.

I guess you can go vote for Republicans then. Either implicitly or explicitly.

I vote everywhere I can.

I also am capable of processing reality and human history.

Fascists don't get voted away.

(I hope it's clear I'm in agreement with you, I am on your side, not the flat.world mod who thinks we should be reasonable to and platform bigotry.)

"if you want them to stop fascism, you'll vote for fascists."

Liberals sure are something. They are so pro-electorialism and anti-criticism yet can't win elections.

"I wish Democrats were better candidates to defeat Republicans"

"Then go vote Republican."

You're not exactly sure how opinions and voting work, are you?

Are you? If you constantly shit talk one party, guess who's going to get fewer votes?

Maybe if they didn't capitulate to Trump while saying they've done all they can, I'd complain less.

If they were less like Schumer and more like Al Green I'd be happier. If they were less like Pelosi and more like Katie Porter I'd be signing their praises.

If they stopped voting to approve of Trump's cabinet picks I'd be with them. If they didn't vote with gutting Section 230 and a Herrtage Foundation written bill to harm queer youth, I'd be donating to them.

They don't. They are with Trump because he doesn't hurt them, they hurt the people who rally around next election cycle.

Want me to show you the proof I voted for Democrats and registered as them in my home state of California too?
