Cory Booker has been filibustering for a while, but there’s no legislation that he’s stalling.

    I don’t think I’m the one living off fantasy, considering I’m not the one saying ‘why are we hating on this action that is accomplishing literally nothing’ and ‘I also hope other liberals will throw off their fascist tendencies and start to do the same’.

    Dems have done this for decades, they do juuuuuuuuuust enough theatrical garbage like this to make you think they’re not all complicit, and then they turn around and openly aid the worst things imaginable. Not all of them, but always just enough of them for it to happen. And they’re always the ones co-opting leftist rhetoric while hamstringing them as much as possible, you’ll pardon me for mocking this newest rendition of liberal theater.

      Again I do not disagree with your point about liberals being dog shit, the Dems being dog shit, and so on.

      However this one action isn’t nothing imo, The action disrupted the Senate. I hope they continue to disrupt the Senate. Like you said they’re liberals, they’re progressive capitalists at the end of the day. We can’t expect them to work to overthrow the capitalist structure, that our job. But if my options are to encourage the childish anti fascist liberal behavior that’s doing some slight action, or never compromise and let the liberals grift further to the right because they realize that the real left will never be happy. I’m going to encourage them to be childishly antifascist. Id rather have begrudgingly support liberal antifascist than nothing at all personally.

      For real: What would you rather they do to start to disrupt the Republicans? I mean this genuinely as you seem intelligent, because frankly outside of blocking procedure idk what you expect.
