Then you should just go ahead and vote for the Republicans if your tinfoil hat is on that tight.

not a fan of seeing criticism of the Democratic party as fundamentally an endorsement of Republicans

like it isn't that black and white; this straight up feels like you're going "oh you think the Democrats aren't doing enough? Well then just go vote for the Republicans you ungrateful shit" which is kind of dangerous???

you're basically backing them regardless of what they do because the opposition is worse , which is not how you should be approaching this

I'll do one better and vote for socialists.

I love that for you. While we have a 2 party system a vote for the socialists in this context is a vote for Republicans.

And that’s how change never happens. You’re forgetting that republicans were a third party who got off the ground because people cared deeply about abolition. We just need to get people aware of how to get Medicaid for all. Also, your snide tone isn’t useful.
