Hi everyone, I just found this website and I don't know where else to rant my frustrations about the current Democratic Party. I would absolutely be silenced everywhere else. So hear me out.

Let me just get it out there that I am as progressive as it can get and I disagree with Donald Trump on a lot of issues although I agree with trump on Foreign policy... but I digress. I support REAL policies such as Single Payer Healthcare, Tax funded college, ending the endless wars and foreign entanglements etc you name it I.am as lefty? that you can get. I have no time for their holier than thou, culture war bs.

After seeing the candidates I loved in the Democratic party get snubbed, pushed aside and forced to bow down to the fucking DNC, then proceed to coronate corrupt neocon hacks like Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, I am done.

They pretend to care about racial and social justice, yet they nominate someone that wrote the Crime Bill and Kamala Harris who filled the prison system with minorities in California....with mostly non-violent offenders. Militarized the police and the reason why police brutality is rampant, especially on cities and states that are supposed to care about that. Then THEY DARE preach about BLM bs while this mess was their own making and they just deflect rightfully angry people.

They pretend to care about LGBT and Religious minorities as they bow down to Saudi Arabia and continue the senseless wars in the middle east.

They pretend to care about healthcare, but will always take donations from Big Pharma and will at most virtue signal that they care.

They. Are. Hypocrites. They offer no REAL solutions aside from Trump is bad.

I could go on and on and on about this... but I am with you guys this year.

Oh I agree, he has done a lot of real work towards it. It may not be the ideal one that I believe in, but it is something.

Im sure you have heard this from plenty of people, but It has and can work on other countries. Without getting too much into it, I am what hardcore lefties call a "Social Democrat" or nicknamed "succdem" I still believe a capitalist system, but I do believe the wealth generated by that should also directly help the people. If the establishment can bail out wall street, fund endless wars and expanding the police state. I'm sure if we can cut that, put it into a streamline system that would help everyone AND reduce our deficit.
