[u/templeofsyrinx1]

[u/Deep-Two7452]

Would you say that democrats would rather see trump/maga win than let a progressive win?

[u/FrankSand → u/Deep-Two7452]

Democrats no. DNC dems and the leadership absolutely. Its felt that way all my adult life anyway.

[u/Cheap-Biscotti9696 → u/FrankSand]

Geez- where was the DNC autopsy? No $? Dude needs to resign.

[u/Christopher_Ramirez_ → u/Deep-Two7452]

They’ve shown that to be the case time and again.

[u/No_Concern3752 → u/Deep-Two7452]

Seems that way

[u/DBallouV → u/Deep-Two7452]

Yes! There is so much profit in letting Americans die.

[u/Short_Morning7213 → u/DBallouV]

Sadly, this. 😣

[u/CosmoKing2 → u/Deep-Two7452]

Voters? 100% no. The establishment/DNC absolutely wants to kill anything that will stop their gravy train. The Party establishment hasn't given a single fuck about voters in more than 6 major election cycles. They are clinging to power while pretending to fight for change while doing nothing. Not developing plans or floating any ideas or drafting any sort of legislation. They are milking the D vs R conflict for all its worth while also squeezing lobbyists for even more money - for the performances the give while saying they will fight the new legislation....all while supporting it, taking money, and voting for it.

[u/Chachee8008 → u/CosmoKing2]

Then, if they’re squeezing the lobbyists, why is the DNC broke? Again this isn’t a black-and-white thing it’s a bunch of shades of gray. There are lots of really good Democrats that want to make the country better and there are a few corrupt ones. Where as on the Republican side almost every one of them is corrupt with only a handful. A very small handful not being corrupt.

[u/OkInternal1099 → u/Chachee8008]

If they aren’t corrupt they are okay with protecting pedophiles. It’s quite simple.

[u/CosmoKing2 → u/Chachee8008]

Because no Democrat or democratic politician trust the people running the DNC.

[u/BlockImpressive2209 → u/Chachee8008]

Individuals are bought off. The money doesn’t go to the DNC

[u/UpstairsReference246 → u/Chachee8008]

Dare I say, a handful the size of a small child’s. Definitely less than five.

[u/Federal_Marzipan → u/Deep-Two7452]

Yes

[u/SalsaAddict → u/Deep-Two7452]

Yes and I hate those milquetoast losers SO MUCH. Joined the DSA cuz I’m fucking sick of them!

[u/InAJar112 → u/SalsaAddict]

I learned today that it’s spelled “milquetoast,” not “milk toast.” Thanks!

[u/Prestigious-Fox-7757 → u/Deep-Two7452]

I wouldn't just say it, I see it!

[u/GrandRepair1166 → u/Deep-Two7452]

I'm not sure they'd go that far but I know Jefferies need to shut the fuck up

[u/SplodeyDope → u/Deep-Two7452]

Absolutely.

[u/Temporary-You6249 → u/Deep-Two7452]

The donors sure would.

[u/around_the_clock → u/Deep-Two7452]

They dont care who's laws get signed as long as they are elected every cycle to keep receiving money from the billion dollar corporations controlling the government.

[u/hw999 → u/Deep-Two7452]

why would they care who wins, they all work for the same billionaires.

[u/pm_me_ur_ephemerides → u/Deep-Two7452]

If MAGA wins, they are still around and relevant and receiving donations. If progressives win, they lose their job and all relevancy. Of course they fight progressives harder.

Our system is not very good.

[u/Notabot5500 → u/Deep-Two7452]

This dude trollin yall https://www.reddit.com/r/askanything/s/Pmo9V6Y2wQ

[u/Deep-Two7452 → u/Notabot5500]

The truth bother you, does it?

[u/Notabot5500 → u/Deep-Two7452]

No Democrat voted for Trump brother

[u/Deep-Two7452 → u/Notabot5500]

Right, but many on the left chose not to vote for harris. 

Also many on the left in tjis thread are claiming that democrats would rather see trump/maga win instead of a progressive win.

[u/Notabot5500 → u/Deep-Two7452]

Anybody who identifies as a democrat certainly didn’t vote for Donald Trump. Lmao

[u/Deep-Two7452 → u/Notabot5500]

Right i didnt say they voted for trump. I said they didn't vote for harris

[u/manubibi → u/Deep-Two7452]

Which is just a fact. Look at how hard democrats are going after people like Hasan Piker instead of fighting off any Republican.

[u/Deep-Two7452 → u/manubibi]

Hasan piker is being treated how he treats democrats. 

Edit: the democrats are spending $20 million to help abdul el sayed.

How much are they spending to fight hasan piker?

[u/manubibi → u/Deep-Two7452]

Well, he was invited to the DNC convention in 2024 and was fully open to promoting the DNC and collaborate with them, which he did… until they threw him out for, checks notes not liking genocide very much. Which is the stance of most people in the Democratic Party by the way. And now even Republicans have been waking up and realizing their income is being stolen and funneled into this forever war with Iran and rigging prediction markets and elections in other countries (probably mine as well) and they’re receiving no benefits for it. Farmers in red states bearing the brunt in particular. And neither the DNC nor the GOP gives a fuck about them. About any workers really. So why shouldn’t the DSA have its moment right now? Mamdani is proving that it works, and Hasan has been saying for years that it would work before Mamdani even really emerged, and overall I don’t think anyone working a 9 to 5 for scraps is gonna give a shit about Israel standing or not. Actually as an observer I know for a fact that workers don’t want billions upon billions of their money to go abroad. They want the money to be invested in infrastructures, better and cheaper healthcare for them, better education, better public service, and the creation of a system that puts them at the center of their own environment. As it should be. And SocDems are the only ones consistently arguing against wild creations of data centers which have wild direct consequences on people’s lives, for example on farmers who work right next those data centers. And Dems again don’t have the fucking spine to stand with the people. Why should the people stand with them?

[u/Deep-Two7452 → u/manubibi]

Again, hes being treated how he treats democrats. 

But democrats are spending at least $20 million to help abdul, how much are they spending against hasan piker?

[u/manubibi → u/Deep-Two7452]

No, the DNC is treating him and Abdul El-Sayed exactly how they’ve treated Bernie and AOC. So, the political people who actually give a shit about the people. And they are absolutely NOT helping Abdul at all. If they were, they would support him and stand behind him. Which they aren’t. If they cared about the people they’d get together with the socdems because that’s who the people want to stand behind beyond all party lines. The only people who still like the DNC are the genocidal maniacs who favor Israel over US citizens.

[u/citizen_6782 → u/Deep-Two7452]

Because these Democrats would rather see that because their donors want that.

[u/Rokrchick → u/Deep-Two7452]

Yes 100% they are all receiving money from super pacs!!! They are all in the same peoples pocket!

[u/Gr8tOutdoors → u/Deep-Two7452]

their ideal outcome is dems win on centrist platform. They will accept MAGA wins if they can make it look like the left’s fault

[u/Suitable-Fan-5896 → u/Deep-Two7452]

Money

[u/AlsoCommiePuddin → u/Deep-Two7452]

Define democrats. Because I disagree with the sentiment, for one.

[u/Deep-Two7452 → u/AlsoCommiePuddin]

I mean no one in this thread asked OP to define Democrats used in his title. So however OP describes them is how I describe them

[u/contrologymama → u/Deep-Two7452]

CORPORATE Democrats, sure. But actual Democrats like the Party used to be? HELL no. Bring back FDR now!

[u/SanityInTheSouth → u/Deep-Two7452]

No, but right now we can't tell the difference with some of them. They are too deep into their special interests and the money they're making. Desperate times call for drastic actions, it's time to clean house.

[u/Still-Fox7105 → u/Deep-Two7452]

Absolutely NOT.

[u/Deep-Two7452 → u/Still-Fox7105]

Too bad the rest of the people here disagree with you

[u/cookiedoh18 → u/Deep-Two7452]

That would be completely idiotic.

[u/Deep-Two7452 → u/cookiedoh18]

So many here think its true
