Eh, I dunno. I don’t think the DNC is my “friend”, but I also recognize that the harm caused by democrats is a paltry fraction of that caused by republicans, and I do find it offensive when people equate them, its absolutely lying and I absolutely consider it harmful.
I may be against the existence of the state, but I can also recognize that one choice gets way more people hurt and killed that I don’t want to see hurt or killed.
Just because I recognize that the US is a poor excuse for a democracy doesn’t mean I won’t try and make use of the currently available mechanisms to prevent additional people from being hurt and/or killed. I’m not into the accelerationist bullshit.
I think part of the problem is that many of the people who complain about democrats absolutely will call them fully equal to republicans, which just makes them seem like an idiot that isnt worth listening to because of how separated from reality those comments are.
As bad as in certain situations? Sure. Overall? LOL no.
But just as some people will complain that I just wrote “whole ass paragraphs”, nuance doesn’t often play well on social media (including the fediverse) compared to “strong stances against!!!” whatever thing, which just furthers the divide rather than expanding the further left.
Why do you think all these bills that would substantively improve peoples lives always fails by just 1 vote, and it’s always a different person? Have you ever heard of the rotating villain method? They all figure out what to do and then make the voting look like they were trying so hard but just failed.
If I had to pick between these two dogshit parties, I would pick D every time, but the party as a whole doesn’t give a shit about you, they care about power and wealth. They just happen to have a little better messaging than Republicans. By the way that’s most politicians everywhere.

Just my opinion of course.
