    Those progressives you cheer for still uphold the oppressive systems that keep the working class down.

      The kind of massive change we’d all like to have happen doesn’t come instantly - at least not without massive upheaval and destruction that would waste a LOT of lives.

        Sure. Doesn’t mean people can’t have feelings about it though. The dems have done very little to effectively fight the GOP. Doesn’t mean OP won’t support them but expressing a little frustration is not undermining anything.

            One of the big reason Democrats have lost is that they have this toxic impulse to label any criticism as a Russian or Republican conspiracy. There’s a “speak no evil” mindset that pretends that squashing criticism actually helps. Instead it just makes people bitter. The Dems tried the “sit down and shut up” approach in 2024 over Gaza. There’s nothing voters hate more than being told they have to shut up about the issues they care about. It sends a crystal-clear message:

            We want your votes, not your voices. Sit down, shut up, and do what you’re told. If you don’t vote for us, the bad cop over there will win.

            And the toxic positivity “the more you know” crap is also a trope repeated by Democrats that love losing elections.

              I know, people do lie on the internet. Especially if they’re trying to steer people in a certain direction.

      Make up maybe 5-10% of the party as a whole. They’re not the problem
