The Democratic party is still controlled by the rich just like the GOP. Different rich people, possibly with better morals, but they're still protecting their financial interests even when it isn't beneficial to the progressive policies they claim to support. So it wasn't "the Left" that ended up letting Trump win and fucked us for generations with a corrupt SCOTUS but the rich donors controlling the Democratic party.

Yeah because all those people that had zero turnout energy during the primary were actually paid off by the rich. That's why they didn't vote in the primary!

Fuck right off with this DNC conspiracy bullshit. Progressives owe their cause turning out, you don't get to blame everyone else for not doing the revolution for you while you're sitting on the couch instead of doing the literal barest minimum to actually materially support what you claim you believe in.

Fuck your words. Give the cause your actions, or can your empty platitudes about how it's everyone else's fault your side refused to vote.
