mikevago.bsky.social @mikevago.bsky.social · 10/10/2026↪ Replying to @benwikler.bsky.socialNice to see the But Her Emails Gazette starting to acknowledge the danger Trump represents, ten years too late. 000
mikevago.bsky.social @mikevago.bsky.social · 20/09/2026And then I watched too many people on the left betray my family *and* American democracy for the sake of the empty gesture of “sending a message”. I’ll be goddamned if I stay silent and watch you all do it again. 000
mikevago.bsky.social @mikevago.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Very easy to say tHe dEmS NeVeR dO aNyThInG if you ignore what they did. And if we had two more senators, we would have doubled minimum wage and cut child poverty in half. But now I'm going to get swarmed by replies belittling me and demanding the solution is *fewer* Democratic Senators, not more. 200
mikevago.bsky.social @mikevago.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Vaccine rollout, infrastructure spending, huge investment in solar, huge investment in infrastructure, decades-low unemployment, wages rose highest among low-wage earners, raised taxes on the rich, blocked corporate mergers, bringing post-COVID inflation down faster than any other country on Earth. 200
mikevago.bsky.social @mikevago.bsky.social · 18/09/2026My entire argument is that it's good for *you*. I mean, trans rights are good for me too in that people I care about deeply have more rights. But everywhere Dems are in power, you have more rights than everywhere GOP is in power, and your argument is, "we shouldn't put the Dems in power." 200
mikevago.bsky.social @mikevago.bsky.social · 18/09/2026↪ Replying to @nicholehiltz.bsky.socialYou know, it's funny, the only time I ever get personal insults on this web site is when I try to suggest to the Democrat-hating left that letting the Republicans win isn't going to accomplish any progressive goals. It's almost as if people don't like being called out on their bullshit. 200

mikevago.bsky.social @mikevago.bsky.social · 18/09/2026That’s how politics work, that is how they have always worked, and you know full well that’s how it works. That isn’t ideology on my part, it’s Sesame Street-level math. 200
mikevago.bsky.social @mikevago.bsky.social · 18/09/2026This is elementary school politics the Democrat-hating left has to put *so much* flopsweat and effort into pretending not to understand. Progressive Dems can’t do a goddamn thing if they aren’t in power. Electing centrist Dems isn’t ideal, but it lets the progressives actually do shit. 400
mikevago.bsky.social @mikevago.bsky.social · 18/09/2026↪ Replying to @iloveoutside.bsky.socialSo you don’t consider expanding gender-affirming care and stopping Trump from codifying a lot of heinous anti-trans shit into law to be good? 000
mikevago.bsky.social @mikevago.bsky.social · 18/09/2026The only way we’re going to preserve and expand legal rights is to get the fascists out of power. And even electing waffling, shitty Democrats is worthwhile because it creates Dem majorities, puts the good Dems in power, and that’s where they can do the most good.erininthemorning.comDemocrats Successfully Strip All Anti-Trans Riders From Final Appropriations BillsThe HHS and Education bills once contained the most sweeping anti-trans provisions in congressional history. Now they contain none. 000
mikevago.bsky.social @mikevago.bsky.social · 18/09/2026↪ Replying to @nicholehiltz.bsky.socialIt’s not helpful to look at a few shitty moderates and say Here’s What The Democrats Belive.
