The right figured it out that you need to engage at this level.

Of course you mean they have to pander and lie right?

The Democrats are asking for the following:

• Extension & expansion of health-care subsidies under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). This was set to expire at the end of 2025, and would drive up insurance costs for millions of low-income and middle class families if not subsidized.
• Reversal or protection against Republican-led cuts in Medicaid / other health programs. The BBB removed a lot of people from Medicade coverage, they want to prevent it from getting worse and guarantee protection for US citizens.
• A meaningful say in any continuing resolution (CR) or stop-gap that reopens the government.

Essentially, Republicans are trying to ram through legislation that fuck over a lot of people. Democrats are trying to prevent a lot of people from being fucked over, and have essentially told Republicans that you need to work with us on these things....like, you know, a functional government is supposed to do.

The reason you see simple messaging from the right and not the left, is because lies are simple. If you're just making shit up, you can make it as simple and meme-worthy as you want, it doesn't matter. The truth is always more complicated, so if you want to tell the truth, you have to explain in something other than memes and simplistic pictures like this one. You need articles, or at least a paragraph or two of explaining, which means reading.

I'm not reading articles all day. Just looking at pictures.

You don't even need to read an entire article. Most reasonable news sources put it in a quick info box for you. Or you could pull up a democratic senator's Bluesky or Mastodon account and see what they've posted about why they voted against it. There's probably info on Tiktok and Instagram, too.

In this modern world, the issue is never that the information isn't available; just that you didn't look for it.

Do I read this right? You're saying "the right is winning because they're posting clickbait bullshit (technical term here, not just a sloppy swear) consumed in memes or tiktok-style videos"?

Aren't you terrified that's the life so many (and I think you're putting yourself in this camp as well) are choosing to live?
