Kamala is so far right on so many issues compared to the Dem voter base

The American voter base, yes including the democrats, is extremely conservative (at least compared to me) on almost every issue. When it comes to global warming, for instance, 1% of them are vegan. Maybe 10% would be on board with disincentivizing car ownership. These people are dumb as shit.

If you’re not willing to interact with reality, you can’t solve any problems, and at this point your refusal to get out of your echo chamber looks like you don’t actually want to solve any problems at all. You just want to hide and play pretend.

is extremely conservative

No, they're not.

Poll after poll for years have shown progressive policy is popular with voters...

The problem is we never run a candidate who wants progressive policy.

But honestly?

The majority of your last comment was just insulting people you do t understand and is indecipherable from a trumpets comment about a Republican criticizing trump...

I'm probably going to just block you if all you want to do is act like a trump supporter, I honestly probably should have instead of typing this.

Until they learn that Democrats want to do it lol

Wow, for real? Amazing! What percentage of Americans want to end factory farms? What percentage think gas guzzling SUVs should be illegal? What percentage want us to build free housing for the poor, or support a more aggressive version of the wealth tax proposed by Kamala?

I’ll answer that for you: between 3% and 20% across the board. You’re totally goddamned delusional and it’s why we can’t make any progress.

Instead of complaining about politicians who are doing their best you can try converting democrats to your perspective. But that would take effort, right? That would take contact with reality.

Yep, should've just blocked you last time.

So weird how all these accounts who spend so much time trying to divide the Dem party always act so much like trump supporters...

And usually just a month or two old...
