    Who said reality is better now? I certaintly didn’t. I’m also not sure why you brought up Accelerationists. Maybe you’re replying to the wrong post?

    The Democratic leadership has had the chance to change, and have chosen not to. They had a majority, and spent the entire time bitching that there was nothing they could do for their voting base. But they sure had the ability to do things that their voting base expressly didn’t want. I think voters saw through that, and when the time came to put their faith in the Democratic leadership, they couldn’t. And I don’t blame the voters for that, I blame the leadership.

    I don’t understand what you mean by AOC putting in the work. I constantly see her talking a big talk, but I’ve yet to see her walk a big walk.

      Razor thin majority, biggest climate change bill ever, canceled student loans, navigated covid. Sure, they didn’t do anything. /s

      Was it a metric ton? No but it’s better than the alternative.

      But hey, why not let Republicans back in to dismantle all that and more. Surely that’s better.

      If we’re this stupid then we deserve all this and more.
