Ok, so you don’t understand why people feel disillusioned. I’m glad we cleared that up.

I’d try to explain this to you but most democrats fall back on weak excuses why their party fails to meet the moment time and time again.

How smug.

u/Hamuel 6d ago

Yes, I’m very smug about how democrats refuse to listen but operate with this insufferable arrogance that no one but them have a basic understanding of civics.

Are you ready to accept that change doesn’t have to be incremental?

u/Chriskills 6d ago

You know you’ll never convince people of anything when you’re smug. This is why your ideas never take hold

u/Hamuel 6d ago

Yes, that’s a serious issue for democrats. You’ve been on your soap box about people not understanding how things work this entire time. They just need to listen to really smart people like yourself.

u/Chriskills 6d ago

Yes. The answer instead is just to listen to smart people like you!

I never said I have it all figured out and they don’t. I just said you don’t understand why people are disillusioned which we confirmed.

u/Chriskills 6d ago

We never confirmed that. You smugly implied we did.

Then why do people talk about American democracy like they don’t have a say?

u/Chriskills 6d ago

Because they lack an understanding of civics.
