Who is proposing throwing all that progress out?
I have been very clear that I understand the clear and present danger the GOP represents and that I will continue to vote Democrat while gritting my teeth knowing people deserve better. I have stated as much in this thread.
Am I not allowed to critique them without insinuations that I must be making bad choices in voting or am a Republican plant? Why am I not allowed to point out the reality that what the Democrats have given still isn't enough?
Ok, well you didn't say that in any comments to me, so I didn't see it. But also, let's not pretend like there aren't right-wing bad actors out on these platforms pushing that exact "both sides" message to discourage people from voting. Because you and I both know there are. These public comments have consequences
