I’m sorry if this comes across as cynical to everyone but I’m worried about the ratchet effect. Even if we vote in Biden and he doesn’t have a majority in both the House and Senate, no lasting changes to government can be made. Even if we get a slim majority in both chambers there’s no telling if we’re gonna have another Sinema, Manchin, or Fetterman go and betray the party during a critical vote. It feels like there are so many Democrats who are willing to get in bed with corporate and fascist interests and act as sleeper agents.

How are we supposed to prevent them from sabotaging important government reforms? Republicans seem to have all the time in the world to implement their strategies while Democratic voters struggle every election cycle just to keep things from getting worse. Yes I get we need to act more locally but I’m personally located in a deep blue part of the country so my impact is negligible. Other than donating to candidates that I hope won’t betray our interests, I see little in regards to what can be done on my end.
