  • There’s no point in refuting Republican talking points that were discredited thirteen years ago. The Democrats had their supermajority for a total of two weeks at the end of 2009. Not nearly enough time to pass anything and everything they wanted. That talking point is dead and buried and is more than enough evidence that I’m not dealing with someone arguing in good faith.

    Is that your intent as well? Sealion me so I waste my time rehashing old, dead arguments?



  • We’ve seen how the government works when Democrats have control. No one will call it perfect, but it works and they generally try to help people.

    We also see repeatedly how government works with Republicans in power. They don’t do shit to help anyone but themselves and their donor class.

    Until we fix the first past the post electoral system, these are our choices. Whining about it won’t fix it. We first have to eliminate the fascist threat posed by Republicans, then we can talk about reform.

    Just because you’ve never heard a Republican declare they’re the same as a Democrat doesn’t mean you aren’t repeating Republican propaganda. They don’t care what you think of them. If you have no faith in government, they win. If you think Democrats are just as bad, they win. Shrinking government until it can be drowned in the tub is the point. Then they can break up its functions and sell them off to private interests. If you want to see a return to feudalism, keep repeating this bullshit. Just don’t think you’re going to be welcomed into the new nobility.
