What have you done to make things better? Sitting and not doing anything lets the other people do things you don’t want. Having an influence increases the chances of getting what you want. Imagine if people primaried Nancy Pelosi. Also Nancy Pelosi is likely trying to tank AOC’s committee bid because she feels she’s making the best decision for the party. That’s because people who feel AOC is good for the party aren’t being heard by her.
This is a false equivalency. Harris wouldn’t send migrants to concentration camps. She wouldn’t attack our allies. She wouldn’t cut social security and VA benefits. Instead she wanted to help normal people like you and me.
Trump constantly praises dictators such as Putin, Xi Jinping, Kim Jong-Un and has a history of sexually assaulting people.
I remember once randomly turning on CNN maybe 5 years or so ago. It was just people yelling at each other. Maybe I got unlucky but I don’t want to watch people angry at each other. Perhaps I picked a bad time and it’s not normally like that but what I saw was enough to turn me away.
There are ways to change it. You can attend local Democratic party meetings in your city. You can also vote in the primaries and you could also call Nancy Pelosi yourself. https://pelosi.house.gov/contact/offices/washington-dc-office
Note about contacting her: sadly she was hospitalized just recently: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/nancy-pelosi-hospitalized-congressional-visit-luxembourg-rcna184144 even if I disagree with her sometimes I still wish her a full recovery. It’s likely that no matter her health it would go to her secretary so perhaps if lots of people call the message would still get passed along to her once she gets better.
Amazon has lots of money and they can easily afford this PR/marketing promotion that they choose to do. Amazon drivers work hard and deserve to be paid fairly for their work. Even though this is just marketing it still results in the drivers getting more money so if you order something from Amazon you might as well do it at every opportunity you get.
It’s a fascist propaganda technique. The enemy is both strong and weak.
I agree totally! That’s why getting people involved in the primary is so important. It’s time we vote out the people who are causing us to loose election after election.
I almost hope they do it but just for a short time before it causes anyone harm. Maybe some people need a wake up call to realize that Republicans just care about the billionaires.
It’s so frustrating that we get taxed at a higher rate than billionaires do. Please remember to vote in 2025 and 2026 and help put a stop to this. If you don’t like your candidate vote in the primary and remember that even if the person on the Democratic ticket isn’t perfect he or she is going to be a lot better than the Republican option.
I think either my post wasn’t clear or you misread it. I’m talking about simple actions you can take to improve the DNC. If you get involved you can have your voice heard in the party. I’m not talking about AOC’s influence, I’m talking about yours.
