It's a mistake to assume that people criticizing the Dems for their weak response to this crisis aren't also a) well informed and b) taking massive action off-keyboard. Thicken your skin. Criticizing our leaders is an important part of the fight we're now in.

“What are the Dems gonna do ?”
What’s a damn Dem ?
This pervades our entire government, Republicans and Democrats alike.
1. Checks and balances are gone.
2. The voting Rights act has been dismembered.
1/2
4. Our real leader is a South African racist.
5. Individual rights are gone and we are on the brink of a third world war
So what's the plan cuz I've got nothing.
Acting like headless chickens is no way to fight a hostile takeover.
Platform those who fight for us or condemn the to obscurity.
It's remarkable how thin-skinned they are. They couldn't resist a fart in a paper bag.
Most should NOT publicly share their works of resistance that don't NEED to be shared, especially not in this climate. For those of us in the deep red states, doubly so.
When they resort to that comeback, it's because their brains are struggling to reconcile your rational arguments with their empty Dem propaganda & failing, & that's the only thing they have left to say. It gets circular after.
The only people that SHOULD be being more public about what they’re doing and that anyone should be asking that from are the elected officials who are supposed to be stopping this.
And yes, we DEFINITELY need to vote them out.
Allowing a lesser evil a pass, is still enabling evil.
How long did it take to condemn the J6 pardons?
Not to mention not a peep about of all the funding freezes or firings in the gov't.
They're literally sitting on their collective asses.
We need a revolution. There. I said it.
On the other I absolutely know people like this who don't do shit and just get off on going after others and feeling smug.
So it's ALSO a mistake to assume they must be informed and active.
Have you considered that you may be imposing absurd "purist" standards on their actions?
Its how we got Adams rather than Wiley or Williams.
You got what you wanted, they are out of power.
Isn't Democrats without power what you wanted?

It is amazing just how well you are proving my point, thank you so much.
Before: criticizing Dems for doing nothing to stop the genocide.
Now: criticizing Dems for doing nothing to resist Trump.
It's almost like Dems aren't willing to do anything to actually fix the issues we're dealing with.
(remind me again: how long did the "thousand year Reich" last?)
Ha! I don’t wonder, they won’t. Maybe a strongly worded Durbin/Schumer/Pelosi email?
Telling the difference between the two is a real challenge though.
If leadership is failing in a time of crisis, that means we need new leadership
when you teach politicians they won't be reprimanded for their crimes, they're only going to be more corrupt
For example, here we can see an account of Dems working with republicans to pass racist bullshit https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jan/22/laken-riley-act-passes-vote
She danced around Putin and Netanyahu until she couldn't anymore either. Still openly investing in oil though. Phony
