The filibuster is currently enabling the heinous shit republicans want to do. Every state law that fucks over marginalized groups is there because Democrats consider their rights less important than the Jim Crow Filibuster.
Then you've been paying no attention at all whatsoever. Or you know better and are lying.
Wait, you are implying that this is the democrats fault? For something thr republicans do?
It's Republicans' fault.
Democrats are more interested in preserving the Jim Crow Filibuster than they are in preserving human rights.
This enables Republicans.
I thought you said you wouldn't be posting here anymore. Can't wait for the abuse to resume.
Sure bud, but the issue is the same. You are blaiming again something that the republicans the to the democrats.....
Well, so far I haven't seen democrats doing what you claim, burt in the other hand i have seen republicans removing rights of the population. Way to go again with blaming democrats for a republican doing.... ironic.
For some reason it shows on my lista. Again i will just wait to claim that i am something just because you have trouble reading and understanding.
You haven't seen Democrats refusing to get rid of the Jim Crow Filibuster?

There ya go. The single most representative Democrat letting everyone know where the party he owns stands on keeping the relic of Jim Crow that Democrats love.
Republicans care about trans people. They want them dead or suffering.
Democrats claim to care about trans people, but they refuse to kill the filibuster to secure their rights. If given a choice between human rights and the filibuster, Democrats prefer the filibuster in all cases.
I understand what you're saying. I'm not buying it because it's bullshit.
Funny when you say that, remembrer that the republicans still always block things foe the democrats. You are angry about one filibuster that makes the minority have a voice in the senate? Regardless of the name..... ohhhhh i get it it is because of the name, which ironically roday is used by the conservatives that still claim that the confederacy is a hereitage.
Maybe you forgot that not long ago the republicans became the conservatives. You must be really angry at the maga gop for the same right?
Sure bud, they don't care.... but then again, who are the ones removing the rights of the citizens? At this point is still a fallacy that you claim is the fault of the democrats.
Also from your article “The filibuster plays an important role in protecting our democracy from the transitory passions of the majority and respecting the input of the minority in the Senate. Contrary to what some have said – protecting the role of the minority, Democrat or Republican, has protected us from the volatile political swings we have endured over the last 233 years. The role of the minority is what ensures the policies of our nation have input from all corners of the country. We must never forget that the Senate governs for all 50 states, not just red or blue states."
But sure bud.... next time read the article to understand, and don't claim that just because of the name is a bad thing. Let the adults discuss the topic without hypocrisy or like tge ignorance of just thinking a filibuster is bad for the name.
And now you've become angry and incoherent. Next you'll be following me around to harass me in other communities.
EDIT: Called it.
Lol the amount of mental gymnastics make a republican issue the fault of a democrat is something else on your part.
Did the whataboutism work in any other post? Any other fallacy? Nah I just wanted to show how much you don't understand what you read. And once again you did it.
And now you're responding as though I haven't said anything.
You responded me first with that fallacy. And now you are doing this hahaha.
Well at least you ate right, you didn't respond anything other than a fallacy.
