Something that I realized about the fediverse is that you seem to be able to criticize the USA as a whole, but if you criticize the Democrats you get downvoted. Democrats suck they are not sacred cows

You're viewing a single thread.
Labels confuse people.
Ask me about the DNC and more than a month ago I'd say they were a giant piece of shit.
Now they have a new chair and new direction. I'd be an idiot to blame Ken Martin for Hakeem Jeffries bullshit.
Like, are you complaining about voters, party leadership, the ones holding office...
You're gonna get downvoted because you're just being vague.
Edit:
OP is from .ml but choose to enable the setting that hides it...
There's not going to be any deeper rational or criticisms made here.
The worst part about instance blocking is that you still see their posts to other communities.
I’m perfectly willing to blame voters, leaders and elected officials for the awfulness of the Democratic Party. There’s been a collective effort to not stand on principles, not try to inspire the electorate, and not hold officials accountable. These reasons, along with the addiction to billionaire and corporate sponsorship are why the party never accomplishes much and is constantly yanked further right by their fascist opponents.
I criticize all those groups...
With specific criticisms.
OPs post is basically:
I'll get downvited for it, but Democrats suck!
Which is why I clarified if you have valid criticisms you won't.
OP has no valid criticisms or is at least unwilling to share them and choose instead to make this post.
Precisely! And metadiscussions about voting will always get downvoted because they're boring.
Labels confuse people.
Proceeds to label people by instance.
by instance.
Yep.
If there was an instance full of Nazis would your position be consistent?
Mine would be...
Yes.
Welp, that answers my question on if it's worth blocking you.
Been real man, but I have no interest in someone that sits at the same table as nazis.
Where I come from when people choose those types of associations, everyone at the table is the same.
Bye. Good luck finding Nazis on here. I’m not gonna block BeeHaw because of a bad interaction with an individual.
No, I am talking about the party itself. All of its members are meticulously filtered for loyalty to the ruling class instead of to the people. They pretend to be better than Republicans, but they are not. All that they care about is being the friendly face of capitalism while they keep increasing the funding for the police and sending trillions of dollars for war abroad. They only exist for control opposition against actual leftist movements and to keep the USA trapped in 2 right wings party oligopoly

What?
So are you complaining about the voting members whose only action is voting for a chair after Republicans win the election?
You know that's literally all they do and they just made a huge pivot right...
Right.
Because then in the rest of the candidate you act like you're talking about regular voting public? If so what power do you think they have?
I still can't tell who you're blaming besides "Democrats".
I've done my fair share of complaining about specific parts of the party, because of that I understand it
You just seem upset, opinionated and...
Well, that's it's so for.
