Example 2,367,367 of Conservatives desperately trying to leverage their political power to demand cultural power. Not gonna happen. Ever.

Democrats have less than a month left controlling Virginia before Republicans take over the House of Delegates and the governor’s mansion. With the clock ticking, many in the party want to seize what they see as a fleeting opportunity: protecting abortion rights by codifying them into state law.
But Democratic leaders in the State Senate have dismissed the idea — and not on policy grounds or over concerns about political messaging. Several of the chamber’s members don’t want to change their vacation plans.
One senator is traveling in Africa. Others are in Europe. And the majority leader is headed to Hawaii.
Lmaooooo Dems are really the dumbest ppl alive
Good luck with that. Expect more bitching on message boards and social media instead.I mean…”It doesn’t matter if you vote for Warnock and Ossoff because Manchin is going to wreck shit anyway” isn’t a great campaign message.
Biden did confirm a bunch of judges this week presumably with Manchin’s votes.
The solution is for more progressives to win elections. There’s a good opportunity here for progressives to run against the Democratic Party to win their primaries on an anti-filibuster, pro-voting rights, anti-Manchin/Sinema platform.
And voting rights and police violence. Nobody is marching in the street for universal child care. Cancel student loans and maybe people can think about having kids.

That's not going to overturn Manchin or Sinema's seat.
From my survey of liberals and myself, most don’t really care that this didn’t get passed. A huge focus of this dealt with parents and children: my generation isn’t having kids. What we care about is the damn student loan issue that is still nowhere to be found. What we also care about is cutting the goddamn ridiculous and pointless defense budget.
Is this a serious post? Democrats don’t need to “overturn” their seats. They need to win more seats so those two seats don’t matter as much and push other moderates to support progressive bills.
Please don’t tell me that you really believe that all student debt should just be eliminated. I’m all for sound social reform and putting $$ behind it but no way would I support the Government just eliminating student debt. I would consider doing so for specific occupations like teachers or medical workers to name two. But across the board; no way. The villains here are the banks and their absurd interest rates and colleges themselves who have totally over charged for the educations they deliver while their endowments grow by millions every year.
