      Jesus fuck you people claim it’s rigged no matter who wins

      Headline: “Person with most money wins race handily”

      Far Left Antifa CCP Tankie on Lemmy: “Damn, seems like the sheer volume of money is determining the winners of these races”

      Reasonable Rational Centrist: “STFU, you stupid idiot! Why can’t you just be happy that the person with the most money won?!”

          Clearly Jamaal Bowman isn’t as progressive as George Latimer, but Lauren Boebert’s progressive bonafides pushed her through.

        Yeah, that’s how elections work. If it were in good faith, it’d be a valid complaint. But it’s not. It’s just another thing they pulled from a hat labeled “how can we make Democrats look bad here?”

      The DNC are not moderates. They are economic far right with imperialist foreign and racist internal policy, but some LGBT rights sprinkled in between.

      And i am quite sure if people like Sanders or Stein would win it will definitely not be because of corporations funding them, more the opposite actually.
