    And this is why progressives struggle so much. Idealism is great but not always compatible with reality. Compromises have to be made, and you have to redo your strategies when you see how the sausage is actually made. I suspect if you won an election to be a House representative, people you currently agree with would come to see you as a sell out too, simply for adjusting your tactics to meet the new reality you see.

      Not supporting a genocide is a low fucking bar. If you can compromise on the annihilation of innocent children, you are a shit person and don’t deserve a vote. Please be fucking serious.
