Is there any set of circumstances where dems would ever take meaningful, organized action against The Party?

Man, federation really is reminding me of Reddit, every bozo with 10 fingers and roughly enough braincells to work them keeps popping in on every political post now that we're approaching election season

'How dare you make a post critical of my team, you're supposed to hate conservatives moarrrr, NOOOOOOoooOOO you're going to help THEM WIN'

Or we get the smuglord 'oh, Biden ACSHUALLY did all these things (provides list of bills which materially helped nobody here and in some instances actively made people's lives worse)'

Biden made a campaign promise and failed to follow through on it. He lied.

Like he did about helping codify Roe, like he did about stemming COVID, like he did about making immigration humane (all he did was pass an EO making sure 'alien' got changed to 'migrant') (and hell his AG fought to have the ability to detain 'migrants' indefinitely), like he did about gun violence, like he did about healthcare reform, like he did about infrastructure, like he did about climate change, like he did about everything

'Oh he's not a king' bitch he can unilaterally pass EOs, and then it's up to courts to determine if they're permitted or not (and he can ignore them and order federal officials to uphold them anyway, ask Andrew Jackson and the Cherokee, Muscogee, Seminole, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Ponca and Ho-Chunk/Winnebago peoples)

'Oh but then conservatives could abuse that power' they don't already? And you're going to use that as an excuse to never do anything better?

You're sitting in a lake of piss moaning about how nothing can get better instead of...trying to get out of the piss lake

Libs don't understand how coalitions work. In a real coalition you have to give something real to your junior partner; which the assumed position of the left in America, even if based on polling a majority of voters support socdem policies.Their promise to the left is that they won't let things get worse! This both isn't a actual concession as well as a lie! So fuck them, libs want a deal? Then push your monstrous leadership to give us something or fuck off, its not my job to be you people's moral conscience.

"If Republicans are going to do what you're saying, then Biden should Order 66 the entire Republican Party."

yes-sicko

But him and Bernie are giving each other handies watching from the corner (nothing wrong with cuckoldry, unless y'know it's actual politics...)

If they really gave a shit they would have done it on January 7th. Instead, their most spineless sychophants demand that I be the one to give a shit instead. Like clapping for Tinkerbell, they can't stop the other team unless you believe!

Right? If someone tries to do a coup you line them up and shoot them, then lay a trap for the next set of coup plotters!

Like they do to...oh, I don't know, Black socialists who speak out against war. Liberals' fear about how bad it would be if Democrats actually decided to take action against Republicans is literally already what they do to leftists. The world they claim to be terrified of is the world we are already living in, and supporters of this status quo fascism have just happily helped pull the blinders down over their own eyes.

Word. Sums up my thoughts on the matter of "uwu smol bean powerless joe" perfectly. It's pathetic hwo allergic libs are to weilding power.

Well, they're happy to wield power against us (Occupy, Ferguson, election shenanigans against the Green Party, etc.). They're just "allergic" to it when it's against their supposed "enemies across the aisle". This is one of the big things that makes it so clear that there's only one party: the Business Party, or Liberal Party, or whatever you want to call it.
