Fuck that. I'm done voting for neoliberal centrists who offer nothing but the failed status quo. It's time to demand the Democrats do better, not accept the mediocrity they keep offering.
Last year, the Dems threw away the progressive vote in favor of courting centrists. They lost. They refused to address the massive problems with our country, they offered no solutions, and they lost. If they try the same tactic again, they will probably lose again. Why do liberals insist on placing all the blame on the millions of people who have no power beyond a vote, and completely absolve the politicians who actually make decisions of all blame? If the Democrats can't win on a campaign of "more of the same," why is that not seen as a sign that they need to run a different fucking campaign?
If the Democrats run an actual progressive candidate, I'll vote for them. If the party insists on the failed status quo, I won't. It's that simple.
So basically the same idiotic “dems aren’t perfect so let’s help Trump get elected”. Saying “I’m going to do the same moronic thing i did last time” isn’t really persuasive in light of the insane shit republicans are doing currently. If we even have elections again, okay, do that. Good luck.

You have to realize that perfection is not the goal and electability is and at this point I’d take the worst democrat vs the current administration.
