    Democrats aren’t the white knights. They haven’t swept in to fix things. Whenever they’re in power they refuse to move the needle far enough to fix the damage done by Republicans. Look at Obama and Biden; they continued most of the same horrible practices as the Republicans have done.

    Republicans are evil and monstrous. Democrats are okay and lack the spine to actually make the change the people want. They’re not the same, but neither is really reflective of the will of the people because the only people they (political parties) listen to are people with money.

      But expecting them to be the white knights without participating in primaries, without doing our part, is what got us here.

      Democrats exist on a spectrum between very good and horrible.
