I never disagreed about this. This is true, Dems are better than Republicans on most policies. The whataboutism Dems always employ when asked to he accountable is pretty gross.
No, I didn't say that either - read my initial post again. I said that your sentiment is fine when talking about personal responsibility, but that the Dems also deserve criticism for their part, because it's LITERALLY their job to earn votes and they FAILED. Against a foreign hostile country taking over. There's absolutely no excuse or forgiveness from me there. Yes, the American public should've done whatever, but perhaps if they'd had FOOD, HOUSING, and TIME OFF (we've been asking for voting day to be a national holiday for years!!!!!) - we work more than peasants in feudalism. And you are mad we don't have MORE time in between second and third jobs to fucking study political science? Maybe the Dems should've governed better so our votes were protected, or campaigned for approval choice voting so third party can't strip their votes away. But no, they are wittle babies, we can't expect them to do their jobs, right? To stop a hostile coup of our government by literal human traffickers
