"Lies and insults" LOL taking the MAGA stance I see. I literally just stated historical events and factual information. The fact that you apparently believe the party isn't incredibly corrupt and a sucker for lobbying money is worrying to say the least. It's not hard to look up basic information on money lobbying; the site even shows you how much each specific pharmaceutical company, university, bank, investment company, and much more is investing into all these Democrats! A lot of familiar names on there, no? And guess what โ€“ plenty of these conservative/centrist Democrats were heavily promoted by the party over actually principled progressive Democrats which were as (or more) likely to win! Are you going to decry that as "fake news" too?

You know you have no argument when "you're a leftie who won't vote for Democrats!!!" doesn't work. That's precisely your entire stance, "Democrats are better than Republicans so you're wrong because you think voting is useless". You literally crumble apart when you see that other people can both realize that the Democratic party is fucked up and realize that the only option is voting blue. It just doesn't match up with your worldview. I'm sorry you can't take even a bit of your own medicine, I get that you love throwing around insults, but if you do that you gotta learn to take them instead of immediately starting to whine and complain about other people insulting you back.
