General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: I don't get the negativity and I never will [View all]I honestly intended to post a positive, cut the crap and let's elect Democrats message. I specifically asked for no apologetics for negativity and I see that some have twisted my words into a "don't criticize Bernie Sanders" or worse yet a "both sides do it."
I don't want either. I want to move forward and to defeat Republicans.
You get it, I know. It's disconcerting how enmeshed some people are with this pernicious notion that they have some kind of entitlement that protects them from the practical nature of the universe. You can't both say that we suck as badly as they do, but don't bother to vote for them. I cannot tell you how many people have glommed onto that and said they were voting for Trump because he would shake the establishment of both parties up. The cognitive dissonance just doesn't work.
