There ain't a snowballs chance in hell Dems ever make a serious effort to fix what's broken and the GOP are a bunch of demons from hell. Nothing good is ever happening here again, at least not in our lifetimes

We've been bought by tech ghouls and Qatari businessmen, that's our future. There is no force capable or willing to resist it in our society. They've got all of our data centralized now, so any resistance will result in suddenly no longer having access to your bank account. Beyond fucked

No consequences for the past and an imperial presidency whose powers are only allowed when a Republican is president are just status quo ante-2024.

These ideas about reforging America are thoughtful and on point, except for one pesky issue. How? We've recently lost elections, badly. All we Democrats ever do is talk about the problems and the goals without answering how, as if the constant failure to achieve those goals isn't pertinent.
