General elections and primaries are two different things. I’m not going to sabotage the nation by letting someone even further right of the Democratic candidate get elected by protest voting 3rd party. I sure a shit will vote as far left as I can in primaries and will pick the most progressive candidate in state and local elections.
And while they are in office, you give them hell to get them to act more progressively to keep your vote. This is how democracy is supposed to work. I don’t see what point OP is trying to make.
I think the meme is endearing. Yes, we will accept you if you’re running as a Democrat and hopefully you will have some progressive policies. Once in offic we should hold them to the fire else they might become complacent. They are OUR representatives. Representing so many people with so many differing ideas can be hellish. Very easy to just give in and collect money until you can become a lobbyist.

Hang on because the next year is going to get insane with stuff like this.
Yeah, and our current weapon support for Israel isn’t helping win over any lefties.
