    The liberal line is “wouldn’t you rather have socially progressive neoliberalism than Christian theocracy?” The answer is of course yes, but it’s a malformed question.

    If politicians believe they are owed votes because they’re marginally better than the opposition, they are not accountable to anyone but their wealthy donors. Biden sided with the rail oligarchs on the rail strikes, bailed out silicon valley bank and did virtually nothing to enshrine abortion in law or eliminate student loans. Eventually, even the “socially progressive” elements will be negotiated away in the name of compromise, it’s already started happening with transgender rights.

    Liberals, we love to have a laugh at your expense on Hexbear, but there is nobody on this earth who has more contempt for you and your values than the DNC. They’re running a senile, geriatric dixiecrat for a second term and asking you to he enthusiastic about it. If he loses, it will not be the fault of the radical leftists who refused to vote for him, it will be the fault of the DNC for failing to deliver on the policies that got them elected.
