    This is the friendly reminder to everyone that we can have less shit candidates for the Democratic seats if people get out there and actually WORK ON PRIMARYING USELESS CANDIDATES instead of preemptively going to smug nihilistic asshole mode.

    It’s seriously as bad as Republicans breaking government then claiming government doesn’t work.

    Allows Democrats to pick shit corporate candidates without even voting in the primary, much less backing an alternative

    “See?? It’s only shit corporate candidates!”
