Rail strike shit currently, the abortion stuff over the summer where they had the numbers to do something about it but didn't, covid-related stuff etc.
Basically, if you had to convince someone the dems blow with ~5 recent examples, how would you do it?
:liberalism:
“Thank you George Floyd for sacrificing your life for justice, for being there to call out to your mom — how heartbreaking was that? — call out for your mom, ‘I can’t breathe'. But because of you and because of thousands, millions of people around the world who came out for justice, your name will always be synonymous with justice.”
on Day 1, I will move to eliminate Trump’s tax cuts.
They didn’t. Recent tax bill just passed didn’t even try.
Health care. Defunding the police. Roe v wade.
Student debt. Wall Street bailouts. NBA strike. Afghanistan. Iraq. Drone warfare. China policy. Foreign policy. Ukraine. Organic food. Railworker strike.:good-morning: showing off her bougie ice cream collection then doing very little meaningful while people died from a preventable pandemic then rolling those weak policy rules back for the sake of treats.
not abolishing the filibuster for civility, not replacing RBG because civility, pushing hillary as the feminist candidate, I think the rail union strikebreaking is up there to 'save the supply chains', not codifying abortion or gay marriage until after the midterms because civility, doing austerity to 'balance the budget' because civility, having a worse covid response than trump to salvage the historically-low opinion polls, continuing to pander to gusanos with the blockade
Basically any time they announce a strategy that everyone knows won't work and then eat shit and get that moral victory while also approving basically every horrible thing they come across.
During the Trump admin, all of the grandstanding and reluctantly impeaching over "stupid Ukraine shit* rather than child concentration camps, let alone actually doing anything about said camps (they claim they're good now under Biden, despite conditions not changing).
"She's electable if you vote for her" lol
Parliamentarian.
Pretending to be anti-war and demanding praise for it while supporting, even helping design, Obama's wars.
The bourgeois feminist cudgels used to defend Hillary Clinton.
The "you already got $1400 checks" thing.
Forcing a plague on an unready populace to support business interests while telling you it's because the pandemic is basically over if you get vaxxed - and giving all credit for this (imaginary) development to Biden.
Excuse-making for why they can't codify abortion protections despite controlling Congress and the presidency, cynically preparing for the Dobbs decision and using it as a fundraiser.
All of the "pre-compromising" under Obama, the pretense that they are all just goldfish that can't remember this not working the first 3000 times, and dressing it up as "bipartisanship" and "reaching across the aisle".
