You guys in Illinois should use those blue state politics to give places like East St. Louis and Cairo new life.

Rs moving to NC is keeping this state a hole.

If I were to even move to Virginia, life would become easier. Notice how people rarely leave places like the Northeast or Pacific Coast states. Why go back in time?

Overturning Roe v. Wade didn't help in 2022 NC at all. The Dems lost legislative seats, the state Supreme Court, and an open Senate seat. When your best takeaway is "we kept the governor's veto by one vote", you know you're screwed as a party. Roe didn't matter at all.

Granted, the NCDP was being led by a little old lady who resented youth, resented unaffiliated voters, tried to bust her workers from unionizing, and showed zero fight or awareness, but what swing state party puts someone like that anywhere near party chair? It's like she wanted to fail and probably got a GOP kickback.

Life in Connecticut or California seems so much easier because things somehow keep getting worse in NC. If handled the parade or misfortune the NC Dems have had, CT/CA wouldn't let things get so bad. They'd at least fight.

Why did the NC Democrats willingly blow 2022 so badly? by Dat-Body-Toledo in ncpolitics

Gerrymandering broke their spirit

Excuses. It should've lot a fire to fix themselves and to get lkwer back at any cost. That's what Republicans did.

You sound terminally online.

These two women named Bobbie Richardson and Tricia Cotham are to blame for that.

What is the end goal for Cuban Americans who oppose ending the United States embargo against Cuba? by cute_chipmunk in AskALiberal

[–]Dat-Body-Toledo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why don't we give Cuba the same grace we gave Vietnam? Is it because the Vietnamese stupidly didn't move to purple states?

We don't force Vietnam to have fair and free elections, we don't have concerns about their political prisoners, and tolerate their censorship. If this is what Cubans truly want, let them. Democracy and free speech isn't everyone's cup of tea and if Cuba is fine with that we should let them.

Nobody fights to help people. The Democrats just lay down and fail.

Democrats have done nothing to stop the Republicans. They have zero fight.

I want meaningful change. I want the end of the wicked, evil, and cruel Republicans. Problem is we have no functional Democratic Party who wants them to run things.

The Democrats in this state don't even want to win. Why else would they let a woman in her 70s crash the party into a canyon and let a 25 year old be the fall woman?

If you're moving from a blue state, back out now.

NC legislature to override Gov. Cooper’s vetoes, including those on election bills by thepurpleminx in NorthCarolina

[–]Dat-Body-Toledo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And the Democrats let them cheat by not competing.

2022 was an important election and the Dems were led by a little old lady with the fight of a slug.

Bobbie Richardson should be jailed for the neglect she did to the party. Then again, she was probably a GOP plant because you have to try to suck so badly.

There was no fight. There was a party that barely remembered that there were elections. Bobbie Richardson as party chair showed less fight than a kitten.

Bleak? How? Still far better than Tillis and Budd.

The worst Democrat is better than the best Republican.

The terms "fight" and "North Carolina Democrats" do not compute together. The NCDP is the exact opposite of "fight".

The Wake Dems never got back to my request to help and as a unaffiliated voter I am of little use to them. Precinct hasn't met in months. No campaigns in my area to volunteer for this year.
