    There has been no election in the last 50+ years where progressives didn’t show up en masse for the Democratic candidate. It never happened. As a reward we get this crap every single election cycle.

    The voters who don’t vote for the Democrats are voters who have checked out of the process and aren’t reading this crap from establishment cucks. You aren’t going to reach them with a million stupid political memes.

    Aside from a few loudmouths, progressive loyalty to the Democrats has never been at issue. By continuously harping on it like it actually is an issue, you are going to make it one. You are telling progressives that their votes are needed but their input is not. Eventually there actually will be a mass betrayal of the Democrats, and the Democrats will have earned it.

      Those voters are also maybe voting for the first possibly second time so that whole being jaded shit is a poor argument. Hope they enjoy their consequences. The rest of us won’t.
