Well the important thing here is that you learned your party needs to run better candidates if they want to win.

Well if its not your party why would we want your advice? It sounds like you are someone who has set themselves up to be a lifetime loser in politics who will never win and has never won.

Liberal and Left are literally synonyms. The distinctions you want would be left/far-left or liberal/radical.

[In politics, the word left is applied to people and groups that have liberal views.]

supporting a genocide

You use "genocide" so many times that you are causing me to yawn every time I read that. You don't have the slightest clue on the actual things that would be required to fix Gaza. "Letting Trump win" is absolutely nowhere on that list.

Once you’re far enough right to support genocide, absolutely. There’s no worthwhile distinction.

The way I see it, there is no worthwhile distinction between supporting Trump and not opposing Trump. And since Biden gave Israel an ultimatum over Gaza and Trump never would have done that, then by either supporting Trump or not opposing Trump WITH YOUR ACTIONS, you are enabling genocide more than the people who opposed Trump.

I thought we all agreed genocide is the worst crime possible.

We agree that Hamas is most responsible for Gaza and Israel's terrible prime minister is the 2nd most responsible party. Americans are much farther down the list, and the GOP is way ahead of Dems. Biden literally gave the Israeli PM an ultimatum at one point. There is 0% chance Donald Trainwreck would have done that. And you are helping people like Trainwreck come to power. YOU are "enabling genocide" more than us.

The only reason these two maintain their power is because people like you convince everyone that’s all that’s possible.

Is because those are the two with the support of the vast majority of voters and we don't have a parliamentary system that would allow for more than 2 viable parties. By not voting for a serious candidate, all you are doing is setting yourself up to be a lifetime loser in politics.

If you judge their actions, instead of their words, there’s no difference between the two.

Dems did literally none of those things. Your conclusions are worthless because your facts are too.

Biden is responsible for hundreds of thousands more, ending Covid assistance,

Nope. You totally made that up. He was criticized for providing TOO MUCH Covid assistance.

forcing people back to the office,

Biden never did that at all. It would only even be possible for him to do that with government workers. Which is what Donald Trainwreck is doing. They already drafted a mandate to force all government workers into office 100% of the time.

Prosecute them both for these deaths.

There is nothing whatsoever to "prosecute". Biden saved lots of lives merely by running the government in a competent manner. Donald Trainwreck costs many lives in Covid, but incompetence is not prosecutable. However Trump certainly could and should be prosecuted for Treason and Sexual Assault and Fraud and stealing government secrets.

nd in that respect there’s no difference between the GOP and the Dems.

You mean besides the $4.5 trillion in taxes on the wealthy and/or corporations? Musk fucked up twitter by burning just a mere $0.044 trillion.

How do they differ in any way besides rhetoric?

In the most important way of all by far. Republicans always do gigantic tax cuts for the rich and corporations. Dems always raise taxes on the rich and/or corporations. All 3 of the most recent Dem presidents accomplished the latter.

Why are taxation rates the most important thing to pay attention to? Because wealth inequality is related to and driving almost all of our other problems. If someone payed attention only to tax rates on the wealthy being cut/increased then they would understand 95% of politics.

And they put a 78 year old with esophageal cancer in charge.

Who the fuck are you talking about?

Hakeem Jeffries is 54 years old. He's in charge of the Democratic Caucus. Pelosi has been retired for years. She has no power. AOC lost by 50 votes. There is no way Pelosi caused that. She was only included in the headline as clickbait to troll people.

[Supporters viewed AOC’s bid as a chance to revitalize Democratic strategy, calling the outcome a missed opportunity for the party.]

While it would be great to see AOC win this, the reporter is really overstating things in order to drive engagement. The House Oversight Committee has a limited area of responsibility, so how would AOC "revitalize Democratic strategy" in any general way? Why can't AOC "revitalize Democratic strategy" in a general way without being head of this committee? Other Dems will either listen to her or they won't.
