    Sure, sure comrade I get it. Say - remind me who the progressive was in 2018, 2020? What laws did they pass?

    None? Really. Hm. What about 2016? None again eh. So - what, they’re not very good? Utterly unelectable? Maybe they don’t have corporate money so we just don’t know about them? Ohhhh right - the whole thing is a dark lizard cabal and to get in you have to murder a child and eat them on pizza or something right?

      Bernie Fucking Sanders in 2020, and in my state at least, in 2018 it was Beto O’Rourke. Bernie was not unelectable but was cheated by the Democratic neoliberal establishment despite a comfortable majority of voter support, as you will recall. Beto was a victim of a concerted misinformation propaganda campaign by his competitor, and an incompetent pr campaign by his own staff.

      How are you gonna tell everyone "Yes, I know the neoliberals keep encouraging fascism, but if you just vote for them, fucking again, then next time, for realzies we can get the person who we actually want, is willing and able to fix things. address this contradiction, please.

      I note how you threw in corporate money right next to conspiracy views as if to equivalate the two. Also, as it turns out, there really was dark pedophile cabal, so.
