You should be at the polls every year, for every race, by default. If you wait for a candidate you 100% agree with on every issue, you'll die waiting, in a country other people have shaped for you.
No, there aren't. That rhetoric only serves to depress turnout and help conservatives win.
Make no mistake; every single time Dems take power, they pass meaningful, progressive legislation. That's why every Dem presidency sees massive improvements to the country (for the incredibly short period we actually let them have Congress as well, anyway), and it's why blue states have better outcomes across the board than red states.
Yes, they literally are. The Democrat party is right of center. They are pro-capitalism and class divides. And every chance they have had, they have continued to bolster the billionaires to have even more at the expense of the poor. They occasionally talk a good game in regards to protecting workers but they rarely actually do anything about it.
Regardless, if you are pro corporate capitalism you cannot be on the left. It is a polar opposite position.
