    It’s exhausting trying to speak from knowledge to people who think their fucking guess at how things work is somehow equivalent to your lifetime of direct experience. I regularly get moronsplained at by these people and never, literally never, do they have the slightest idea of what they’re talking about.

      The non-American accounts make sense at least, most Americans can’t even understand our system…

      But politically “active” Americans who spend lots of time commenting about it, but have never tried to learn about it anywhere besides social media are just the fucking worst.

      Like I get it, for 30 years “DNC bad” was good enough.

      But shit finally fucking changed, and there’s a never ending stream of very ignorant and very loud accounts, with a noticable uptick as soon as the primaries were over and the general is rapidly approaching.

      And I stead of paying the slightest bit of attention, they only want to tell people that the DNC is trash and somehow the best way to stop Republicans is not vote for the progressive Dems running against them in the general.

      None of it makes logical sense, but they just keep repeating the same shit the oligarch owned media does.
