    Are you looking for credit for almost being a state governed by sane politicians? Almost doesn’t count for much against fascism.

    Democrats care about people, unless those people are in red states.

      It’s a stretch to twist my words in that way but if it makes you feel better about the shitty people you share a state with you go right ahead.

        Not much of one. Look at how much “just fucking leave” sentiment there is in this thread. Not one bit of consideration for the victims of Republican policy, because the victims have committed the sin of being outnumbered. Yeah, we all deserve the results of Republican policy because our misery exists to give you something to look down on.

        The only time the national party gives a shit about Texas is when a progressive is running against a centrist in the primaries.

      I think it’s mostly just the fatigue talking. It’s been a long 5/10/20/40 years of almost constant attacks and bullshit. It wears down the compassion.
