And these assholes blame everyone to their left for their election losses.
As if these conservative asshole Democrats own me and everyone else who’s not a Republican.

Fake progressives are pro-war.
Fake progressives like to pretend they aren’t pro-war and know that true fake progressives won’t call other true fake progressives out on their dark secret.
