The left actually demands politicians earn their vote. Politics isn’t supposed to be a team sport in the US. The entire reason we have elections so often is to make sure the voters approve of their representatives. That means voting out of team loyalty is a subversion of the system. And the charge of being fickle and lazy is undemocratic propaganda.
Why is the compromise always to be a good little voter and vote for us regardless of the heinous shit we’re up to cuz the other option is Hitler wins? That isn’t a compromise. A compromise is when both sides give up something they want. What have the dems given up? Said that Israel has maybe gone a little bit too far? Whoopty-fucking-do.
I’m tired of compromising with people who won’t compromise. We just lurch to the right over and over whenever there’s a fight. They never worry about compromising with me ever.

Democracy is about compromise. By refusing to compromise you’re ceding power to the worst option.

I mean you laid it out right there

That’s democracy. When a large portion of voters want fascism, you have to compromise with fascists.
Compromise requires both sides. And supplying a genocide isn’t compromise.
“Not genocide” is not an option.
Not with that attitude it’s not. It is possible. There is a world in which Biden proves he can still be pressured into doing the right thing.
Explain how that works.
We actually pressure him.
Be more specific please. Pressure him how?
