Most Democrat politicians are conservatives by every international standard. They are often called neoliberals.
The reason we have a corporatocracy and do not have a legitimate healthcare system is because of conservatives, many of whom are Democrat neoliberals, unfortunately. We don’t have a progressive party. We have a conservative party and a more conservative party.
We need progressive minded non-politicians to say “fuck it” and run for office. If Boebert, Gomert, and Santos can do it, literally ANYONE can.
Looking for work? Run for office. The less of a politician and more of an honest progressive you are, the more needed you are! Do it! Do it now!
We act like these politicians are not friendly with each other regardless of D or R. Like they aren’t getting together in DC bars just like we do after work and joking around about the bills they blocked today or the votes they were able to get. They don’t care. They’re all on the same side they just have to appease different groups of people at home.
I mean… that’s kind of why we never stop ranting and raving… To force them to find new sources of compassion and to find empathy for the other which they weren’t taught by their family of origin. I’m tired of dealing with half the country being raised like thoughtless sociopathic fucking savages and eating the poor and each other.
To be fair to him, it seems to be a common thread with many in the medical profession, probably because they dedicate themselves to a system that is fundamentally broken. Even the likes of Doctor Mike (Medical YouTuber, whose content I really enjoy) have painted things like universal healthcare in a way that highlights the problems without painting the full picture of why (systemic underfunding to push privatisation).
I don’t want to excuse it, but it’s a very common problem that few want to address in the field.
Fucking tired of people who suddenly see a problem when a) it happens to them or b) when they’re no longer relying on the problem for their income.
It’s the republican way. They live in delusion land and when reality hits them in the face they get all pissy about it.

We have a long way to go, man.
Sometimes, it still doesn’t hit them though. They’ll get a $20,000 bill and say “thank God I don’t live in Canada or this would be even worse!”
“In shithole countries like Europe I’d just have died! Probably still waiting to see the doctor!”
