Politicians got boo'ed at political convention, SHOCKING SCENES
(thelemmy.club)
US Rep Kristen McDonald Rivet called Democratic convention behavior "deeply troubling," condemned antisemitism and booing of pro-Israel candidates
I don't know how many times we need to keep saying that a public SERVANT doesn't tell you what to do. If we collectively want to do something very silly then it's not a servant's job to tell me no. If we want to divert all military spending to silly straw creation then your job is not to tell me about all the good things that military spending does. A servant is supposed to carry out my will or get out of the way for someone who more closely represents and is effectual at that thing that I want.
In other words, WHAT THE FUCK DO I CARE ABOUT WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT MY BEHAVIOR? YOU ANSWER TO ME NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND, YOU IMBECIL!
I’m at the point where I think just dealing with the fascists now is a better plan than kicking the fascist can down the line until we have two fascist parties and no where to turn at all.
Democrats need to lose. Badly. We need to scare them like the tea party scared conservatives.
First past the post dictates that we have to form a people's party that can crush the democrats in all areas and effectively delete them from American political life.
The republican party is democratic enough to morph into whatever, the DNC is rigged by design via super delegates and such. There's no reforming it unless the top brass consent.
What, again?
