Text: screenshot of a Tumblr thread reading:
Every day I am forced to confront that the the Democratic Party won the White House and Congress in 2020 and instead of doing the smart thing and ending the filibuster, packing the court, and going scorched Earth on the GOP which, mind you, had just tried to overthrow the election, they kicked back and proceeded to do absolutely nothing of note except cut a blank check for the most televised genocide of the last 30 years.
A disciplined party could have un-fucked everything trump did in the span of a few month, but they chose not to. They chose not to, and now we're all paying for it.
The purpose of a system is what it does.
Well, I’d start by holding them accountable for their actions- and applying harsher penalties for even attempting to enter a home uninvited.
This is the problem.
Republican corruption has become so normalized that in nearly every post about trump’s criminal acts- is just comment after comment about how it’s the democrats fault.
Are they blameless? Fuck no they’re not! And this is where we reach the nuance of the discussion.
Trying to put the blame on those responsible is in no way suggesting that the “victim” couldn’t have been more responsible themselves. There’s tons of shit they could have done to avoid this, but at the end of the day- as I said:
Only one of the things said in my example is illegal. And until the day arrives where one leaving their door unlocked is deemed an illegal act, I’m going to keep blaming the burglar.
Man I'm just not sure what you're even arguing for at this point.
Did I say it should be illegal to not lock the door? Did I say you should be arrested and the burglar should go free? I don't think I said that.
Republicans should be held accountable by going to prison. Democrats should be held accountable by not being re-elected
"Don't criticize my party for failing to stop Trump, that makes you a Trump supporter." is their bad faith argument.
You just said that can’t be blamed in your last comment but now they can be blamed but also it’s still not actually their fault… please get an actual argument.
No logic, only vote blue no matter who!!
