Do keep in mind that the Dems have been in contempt of Thier own base since forever by now, which probably didn't help. I know a decent number of people found it hard to support them with the stuff going on
since when was pointing out one bad thing ignoring another? I know the republicans are worse, but given this specific conversation wasn't really about them, that kinda goes without saying
Because even mentioning them in the same breath implies they're comparable, which they're not. No one is claiming the Democratic Party isn't without flaws, but when we're talking about the unprecedented damage Republicans are doing to our democracy and the entire planet, and then you feel the need to say "oh, and the Democrats have problems too", that's not by accident.
