Moderates would rather lose to fascists than compromise with leftists and progressives.

    Ranked Choice/Single Transferrable Vote are much better systems.

    Which moderates will never support.

      I don’t think it’s a moderate, left, or right problem. More a “the current power structure will never support it” because it works for those in power now to their advantage.

        That just sounds like an attempt to deflect blame away from moderate voters. They undermine, sabotage and attack every effort by progressives and leftists. Then they turn around and expect us to show up in the general election after fucking us over for four years.

          Do you prefer Trump?

          “That’s not the point!!! The mode-”

          So you’d prefer Trump.

          “Listen, Joe is commiting geno-”

          Trump literally bankrolled anything Netanyahu wanted while in power. Remember the map they made together for a free Palestine in 2016? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_peace_plan

          “Well he-” so would anything of your progressive agenda do better under Trump?

          “We need a revolu-” yeah, it’s happening. The USA is slowly becoming an xenophobic anarcho-capitalist religious theocracy for the old & rich. Accelerates greatly when Trump holds power.

          “I just won’t vote either!!!”

          Ok. Go ahead. Just don’t complain later when Israel has a $150 billion dollar defense bill coming its way versus 15 billion. You likely will regardless though.

          Also unions are being nailed to the cross for all to see 🤷🏿‍♂️. They are trialing it in Florida rn, his role model state. https://www.wlrn.org/government-politics/2023-06-30/floridas-new-union-law-sb-256

          Cant wait to see this as Federal policy right? They’ll try.

          Your call though. Im saving up all I can so my friends & I can be safe when shit falls off the cliff.

          “You literally didn’t respond to a single point I made!!!”

          Keep crying troll.
