Well that’s excellent news for Scotland, and well done. The US has a little ways to go with that one.
One of the things that kibbles my bits is that people not well versed in USA look at the turd circus we’ve managed to inflict on everyone and think it’s some agreed-upon settled system. It is absolutely not agreed-upon other than we have to do something today so this is what we’re doing.
Here’s a little flava of what it’s like to support the only national party with elected officials who support healthcare for all, living wage, public transportation, free education, and scientifically backed public health and environmental initiatives: our party “is to the right of the fucking tories in the UK. And tories are, in no uncertain terms, massive fucking cunts. Something to think about the next time you are looking at the Dems to be your heroes…”
That’s what it’s like. So either people who state right up front that they don’t live here and don’t know what it’s like are correct that the Democrats are “to the right of the Tories” and “closer to nazis than [the left]” - OR - They’re wrong.
My position is the latter. But that’s different from “waxing lyrical about how amazing the Dems are”. No no. Nay nay. Dems are extremely critical of the Democratic party for all the reasons you’d expect and some you wouldn’t.
But Lemmy doesn’t need any help shitting on the Democrats, do they? No. Because most of them vote Democrat. They want the national party to do All The Things, All The Time and will never be happy with it except in little pocket of time. That’s what it’s like.
