    Tell me you don’t understand how party politics & voting work without telling me you don’t understand how party politics & voting work

    …to someone who clearly does understand how party politics and voting work,

    Obvious gaslighting is how that sort of person concedes an argument.

      Sadly, people can see right through it, and with every legitimate criticism of the DNC that gets handwaved away with gaslighting or gets dismissed as mere trolling, more leftist voters are discouraged from believing the Democrats are even willing to start conversations that could lead to real systemic change for the better. It’s sad to see the same partisan teat-sucking from Democrats that we see from Republicans.
