My entire adult life has been one very long, very annoying, very exhausting show where I watch people finally get angry enough to do something; that energy is then captured by the DNC through 'validating'/'blessing' it, as necessary, or even saying the right words, sometimes (or words adjacent to the right words). Then election time comes and it's either no progress, backtracking, piddling efforts, or "oooooh we just don't control enough of the... it's that one senator/rep! We'd have had that anti-oligarch/pro-human thing if only Senator Grand Dragon in a swing state hadn't voted against it... sorry... better luck next time! vote blue even harder and we'll definitely get it done next time!!!"

and now, you know. What happened to Occupy? What happened to the Floyd protests, BLM, the closing of Gitmo? What happened to Roe v Wade? yeah... I'd love to say "we've had zero movement on those things" but we've had negative movement. Hell, the dems were the ones leading the charge to beat the shit out of college students protesting the genocide in Gaza.

And it's just been my whole fucking adult life! Ever since I started paying attention, this is what happens. Every. Single. Time. These fuckers are clearly not gonna stop.
