    Maybe we can get kids to get out and vote if democrats actually start doing something for the people instead of coddling corporations and sitting on their asses while republicans strip away our civil rights.

    But instead, the Republican party is full of nazis and the Democrats are collaborators who use the outrage of younger generations for fundraising.

      Oh, you mean like trying to save access to abortion?
      Or tuition relief?
      Or school food vouchers?
      Or sane gun laws?
      Or just in general pro-science based policies on vaccines or climate change?
      Or an endless list of other things that Dems are indeed trying to do but they are met with a Red Menace that will stop at nothing to make any of those policies get through.
      Oh, is that what you mean?

      Because clearly one doesn’t understand that we live in a democracy where there are 2 political parties and if one is willing to undermine the rule of law and the foundation of our democracy to get their way, then you won’t get your tuition relief or any other pro-worker, pro-consumer, pro-sanity policies passed.

      We don’t live in a dictatorship where one person can simply decree for things to happen. We NEED cooperation to get things done. One side is trying, the other side is fighting any and all progress in pretty much every policy.
