The GOP and Democrats literally represent the same constituents. Gay Marriage in the teens, GND and M4A now, Marijuana then and now, Gun Control forever, there's like 80% + support among democratic voters and independents, but wait wait wait, hold on here. Almost 40% of Republicans are against it!
Which is shitty, fine. Structural reasons including the massive amounts of violence they (they being the Democrats, see NYC, Portland, LA, Pittsburgh, etc. etc.) are prepared to unleash on anyone who challenges them from the left means there's not much we can do about it.
What drives me nuts is the broke-brained lunatics who go around evangelizing whatever the status quo is, because the alternative is to admit they have no power and representation. Among a million examples, I had to be physically carried out of a bar by my friends when, right after Stoneman Douglas I was talking about the need for gun control and some smug lib fuck who was not part of our group leans in to criticise me because 'It will never pass the Senate'.
These miserable bitches won't even allow people to express outrage at the murder of children. Because they know the Democrats won't do shit about it, so in a choice between the Democratic Party and child murder, they go out of their way to tut-tut the anti-child-murder side as somehow detached from 'reality'.
