I'm just amazed at the amount they punch left then don't understand why it's always an issue.

Maybe I've gotten too old and cynical to be surprised by it.

Its been the theme of the modern Democratic party to work diligently to cut off your nose to spite your face.

I mean look at the recent jungle primary in California. Adam Schiffs campaign spent millions supporting Republicans in that primary to avoid having to compete against Katie Porter.

It often seems like Democrats have nothing but contempt for their voters. Its not clear to me that they care. Its only a very very few number of Democrats who are actually responsive to their voters.

I hate how dirty they did Katie. But not surprised considering she'd actually hold people to account.

(and of course you got banned from the community but pug is allowed to constantly attack people)

Frankly I'm a bit alarmed i haven't been banned myself. I can imagine the mod logs are full of complaints at this point
