Ah, another Trolley Problem dropout.

    Thanks, I made it up.

    I'm so sick of all the people that say that because the Democrats are (deeply) flawed, they are just as bad as the Republicans.

    That's how you secure Republican victory by pressuring leftist voters to stay home, and that's exactly why it's such a popular meme.

    I didn't call them as bad as Republicans.

    I accused them of pissing in my ear.

    I stand by thay accusation. It's true in every way except literal.

    I'm tired of not being allowed to acknowledge that Democrats would immediately start winning elections if they would run popular progressive candidates. (Some have, this year! There's hope!)

    It isn't a difficult problem for Democrats to solve. Most Democratic party leaders choose not to solve it - I'm guessing because they would have to give up the bribes they accept from billionaires.

    I didn't even call for voting for a third party. I don't think that helps. But pretending the average Democrat politician respects me or gives a shit about me isn't helping, either.

    Anyway, please don't tell me to pretend the average Democratic candidate isn't pissing in my ear. That's too far, for me.
