This is why we need a real worker's party, because this party is dead, and refuses to change.

A Reuters/Ipsos poll released Thursday found that 62 percent of Democrats said “party leaders should be replaced,” 49 percent of Democratic respondents said they were “unsatisfied with current leadership” and 41 percent said they disagreed with the sentiment that they were unsatisfied with leadership.

Oh, I guess let's just throw up our hands and resign ourselves instead of leading by example.

Bro, I refuse to buy anything other than basic-ass groceries and used/local products.

I also started a borrowing circle in my neighborhood where people ask to borrow stuff rather than buying.

Every. Effort. Matters.

No matter how small.

Aww, poor baby. Wanted to be coddled and praised for your ignorance? Is that why you invade spaces where you’re not wanted?
