In addition to blaming all the horrible disgusting people who voted for Trump, we also need to blame the horrible disgusting Democratic Party, which for *decades* has:

😡 Pretended to be good for working people — while simultaneously gutting public health and public education, while aggressively undermining unions and undercutting free speech, and while cheering the growth of capitalist globalization.

😡 Pretended to be good for BIPOC — while simultaneously being "tough on crime" and supporting the expansion of private prisons, and while promoting the neoliberal colonialist agenda.

😡 Pretended to be good for the climate — while simultaneously supporting and subsidizing the planet-wrecking fossil fuel industry.

And so much more...

@breadandcircuses oh no. The lesser monster has some bad aspects.

Therefore fucking what? Do you not understand what “progress” means?

@breadandcircuses Unfortunately, blame doesn’t change anything.
Our insistence on “free speech”, no matter how rude, incorrect, non-factual,twisted, full of intentional lies, and even Russian-influenced has resulted in the slow destruction of our democracy, all in the false name of “freedom”.
The spreading of that by broadcast media and now social media via the internet has amplified the effects.
We have proven that the majority of our population is incapable of reasonably sane judgment.
@breadandcircuses
Let's hope we survive long enough to learn our lesson.
@breadandcircuses yeah. But of course the moment we have an administration actually doubt some good progressive complain even louder
