Guess we're fucked since we're expected to vote for a party that can't get it's shit together.

Political pundits/journalists are the elites of our society and know what's best for all of us. Clearly. /s

Specifically on the labor front, while Biden made some reasonable concessions to unions, Democrats as a whole have been and continue to be dogshit for labor. Biden cannot reasonably be called "pro-union" when union membership continued to fall under his admin.

Saving this for the next time some centrist unironically says "We need to work together."

As if it wasn't progressives and leftists shouting already.

I've been on theory as well. Centrists love to blame the progressives, but Biden wouldn't have won without progressives. Just off of vibes, but progressives also tend to be the most politically engaged as well. So, where were centrists/moderates?

That's what I think as well. GOP got the vote out (along with other reasons of course).

Just curious, is there any evidence to suggest that progressives didn't turn out to vote this past election? How do we know whether the moderate Dems were the ones that stayed home or not?

The fact he went on Maher aside, he isn't wrong that the Dems need a shake up. But he's clearly trying to become the very thing he's criticizing.

The kid went on to Maher and said the following:

“And since many Democrats — despite us, I would say, for most of us [are] coming from the right place of wanting to do the right thing — we’ve created a culture where we say, well, if you say the wrong thing, you’re excommunicated.”

I at least like to think that we say "get off our lawn" with a sense of "but y'all have fun and be safe, okay!"
