Yep, this election was a direct rebuke of democratic leadership as well. They did not want ALL of these Democrats to win. They will not play nicely with Sayed, but they WILL play nicely with Jim Jordan and John Thune.

This election was America collectively saying "it's time for Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jefferies to get off the pot, we need to shit"

Do not let them hold onto the gavel. Give it to someone that will wield it for progress.

    My point was entirely that they are different from Republicans, which was exactly the question you asked.

    You didn't ask if there were reasonable things to critique Democrats over, especially individually...Of course the answer to that is yes, and there's no shame on you for a caring about that.

    You should look up the right side's policies on immigration, abortion, and LGBTQ+ rights to exist on earth. I think you'll find some slight differences of opinion between the parties there, and I'd hope you can see why that would sway people's opinions on which one is more evil than the other.

    Two things having similarities does not mean they are the same thing.

    Walmart sells a ton of shit I think is stupid. Sometimes I see it in the store. It really doesn't bother me, I go to the aisle for what I want, consider the options, pick one and buy it.

    I'm staunchly against smoking. Cigarettes are sold in many stores, but the packs all have warning labels on them making it very easy for me to make sure I never accidentally buy cigarettes. So far, it's been pretty easy to avoid.

    I don't need to talk to the clerk when I walk in and ask them to hide all the products I hate, as long as everything is labeled and I can buy what I intend to buy, it's really not a problem. It's a store.

    Neither person in this lawsuit is a political candidate. There are different rules for political ads than for what you can just say on TV about a public person.

    Piker makes all his income by being popular and from his public image. If what Scott Jennings lied about causes, or may cause, Piker to lose income (by losing stream views because people now think he's a racist), he has a right to sue Jennings for causing that to happen.

    You have no idea what you're talking about.
