You either have a stutter or your keyboard is stuck on copy and paste. You've said that to me at least 3 or 4 times. I'm not a Democrat; and I don't fucking care. Find an audience, loser. After you find your balls and a position that you can support for ten seconds.

Good on you, BidenPresident. I do the best I can every day. At least I try to. It didn't make a lick of fucking difference during the Trump presidency except in my own small sphere. I'm going to deal with the Biden presidency just like I dealt with the Trump presidency. I will advocate for the things I believe in and hold no hope whatsoever that either the government or the general American population is civilized and can make good decisions.
Lastly, a lot can happen in four years. Harris will do whatever she has to do to maintain power. She's not a centrist because of her convictions. She's a centrist for expediency. She might have to turn into a progressive sooner than later.
What should be illegal is manipulating ballot totals
Oh wait.... that IS illegal
You prefer the term cheating ?
That's because we're a Republic, you stupid communist. Democracies really have no place here either.
So, no, we can't be unified because your side is un-American.
I'm sorry, snowflake, I wish I had better news for you and the rest of your comrades.

What you say is truer than true.
Republicans in general confuse the word Democracy with the word Democrat just for the mere fact that the two words have 7 of the very same letters of the alphabet. SO therefore- to a Republican- Democracy is a Democrat thing.
If you ever mention the word Democracy to a Republican, they will respond with, "We are not a Democracy- We are a Republic.
Because Republic has 8 of the very same letters of the alphabet as Republican.
This is how ignorant Republicans are. They do not even know what a Republic is or what a Democracy is- They just repeat Rush Limbaugh, as he was one of the first ones to tell them, "WE ARE NOT A DEMOCRACY" and because Democracy sounds like a Democrat thing.
And if you try to explain to a Republican that we are actually a Democratic Republic- they will deny that that is even possible. You may as well try to nail jello to a tree rather than try to educate or explain something to a Republican.

Another massive pile of lie filled stupidity. Statements from worthless lying dumb fucks like you after four years of your pathetic anti-American, Fascistic bullshit is the definition of irony.
Shit stains on the left don't give a fuck about Democracy. They are Fascists whose only interest is CENTRALIZED political power. Spare us your BULSHIT asswhipe.

It can't.
Too many totally incompatible factions trying to share the same government is the perfect recipe for epic failure.
You say that a large minority doesn't want democracy, but it's much worse than that.
We have no consensus on how to define democracy.
To the ignorant, it means freedom from social responsibility.
The enlightened realize that democracy requires social responsibility.
These opposing views can and will not be reconciled.
Unification is a Pollyanna pipedream but nothing that remotely approaches an actual possibility.

Awesome. Then it should be easy for you to link where I've posted that Politico story before.
You do care and you are my audience, Chris, Pat or whatever the fuck your real name is.
Surely, you understand others can read this, but the fact you reply to my posts is clear evidence you care and feel threatened by ideas outside of your own little narcissistic realm.
Yeah, it takes a REAL elitist to GIVE AWAY his $450K salary to good causes every year, right, you dumb, ignorant cunt?

It sounds like you raised some good humans and that you all value independent thought. Congratulations to you -- sincerely.
I think my demographic generally (let's call it ages 30-45, give or take) feels similarly. We disagree amongst ourselves about government spending. There are still a lot of religious people in my age group who feel strongly about abortion and same sex marriage. We even have a ton of disagreement about gun control. However, I do feel confident in saying that most people my age are "liberal" in the sense that we believe in individual rights and win-win games. Few of us have suffered the tragedies of wars. We've been showered with affection and compliments. I think that most of us are good people who believe that other people are good.
Biden is no savior. He wasn't even the best Democratic candidate if you ask me. But this kamikaze death spin into lies, conspiracies, racism, misogyny, homophobia, and unrepentant, unashamed hate has to stop. Trump is the worst type of person. He inspired and encouraged the worst impulses in other people. We've had enough. Biden is good enough for now.
As far as policies go, I'm generally supportive of the ones you listed. Health care is a no brainer to me. It is inexcusable and nauseating that people who live in the richest country in the history of human existence don't get a cold or a flu or whatever diagnosed because they can't afford to walk inside a clinic. It's fucking barbaric. I was a high school teacher before I moved into an industry that pays significantly more. My mom is an early childhood developmental specialist. I have two young nephews who I love very much. There is nothing more important, more powerful, and more valuable than an education. I think that our young ones should have free, universal, high quality preschool. I think our public schools should be adequately funded and staffed with the best educational professionals in the world. I think cocurricular activities and social development should be as important as proficiency testing and daily attendance. I think that post-secondary education in the humanities or sciences or trades or whatever should be easily attainable and available to everyone. I travel a lot. The US is truly a "shithole" when it comes to roads and airports and bridges. Infrastructure is a no brainer to me, but we've been talking about this for decades and doing barely more than nothing about it the entire time. The defense budget is bloated, but that's because we decided many years ago to outsource everything the military does. My dad cooked and cleaned, maintained tanks and guns, and led PT sessions when he was in the US Army. Now a contractor does all of it. The defense budget is an absolute sham and a nightmare, but the overall federal budget is an even bigger problem.
Aside from what you mentioned (and I'm sorry this has gotten so long, but I become verbose when someone asks me a good question), I have been intensely interested in social justice and equality for my entire life. I am a non-white, non-straight man who was not born in the US. I spend up to 50% of my time in Europe, Asia, and Mexico. An American minority, to me, is everyone who is not a straight, white, Christian, old man. I don't resent their privilege. I just want them to acknowledge it and allow for some of the blessings of the land of milk and honey to drip down to the rest of us. I believe in women's reproductive rights and equal pay for equal work. I believe in the right of homosexual couples to marry and for that marriage to be recognized by the federal government (not the churches -- I am not a religious person). I believe that certain law enforcement forces have lost accountability and need to be wholly rebuilt. I believe that all lives matter, but I also know that black lives in this country have been systematically stomped into the ground for centuries and that the legacy of that oppression and discrimination is a weight that every breathing American carries every single day -- whether we choose to admit it or not. I believe that literacy, food security, and constant access to potable water should be universal. Above all, I believe that we're all in this together. I believe in the Golden Rule. I make mistakes and I say mean things, but I'm very mindful about the people that receive that type of reaction from me.
