And here... we... go!




No, Dems. The problem isn't that you were "woke". The problem is that you didn't FIGHT for the "woke". It's that you always tried to talk big and then fragmented yourselves over possibly offending Trump voters, most of whom were never, ever going to vote for you under any circumstances whatsoever.
You tsk-tsked as the Republicans and their associates used multiple voter suppression tactics, but didn't actually do much of anything to fight them openly. You talked about helping people live better lives, but you stepped away from Medicare For All or even just upping the Social Security tax to cover ALL income instead of the lower portion.
There's increasing evidence that voter suppression tactics may have cost you guys millions of votes -- quite possibly enough to have flipped the election -- with other evidence indicating that just possibly there was some out-and-out interference. You said nothing, and you're STILL saying nothing about it.
Your "radical left" members, AOC and Bernie -- who aren't even vaguely radical, just middle-of-the-road for most of the world -- draw massive crowds and clearly have popular support, but right now, when you could be doing a gigantic pivot and throwing all support behind actual human-supporting policies against the literal fascism Trump and his cronies are putting in place (following the blueprint of the Heritage Foundation), you're wringing your hands and wondering if you should have been more like the damn Republicans.
No, both parties are not the same -- but if you keep doing this, you're even more pathetic, if not more vile, than the MAGA movement, because a lot of you KNOW you're not fighting as hard as you could, you know what's happening is 100% wrong, and you're just waffling on any form of action, regardless.
 
It's time to suit up, buttercup.
