You're an example of what's wrong with the system, you hold Democrats to the standard of a functional political party, while the other party is openly corrupt with respect to this topic and hasn't even bother with "puffery" legislation even though they dominate every branch of government.

The other party in question is the problem, and you're nitpicking an utterly powerless minority party's efforts to make things better.

to the dead reply: "is currently the problem" then. The party alignments have completetly flipped in 150 years. Nothing is permanent, and I thought that didn't have to be explicitly stated. Since I was incorrect about that I'm talking about the current state of the world, with no naive attachement to a particular label.

I’m holding the party that has a hope of saving our republic to account for not repeating the messaging-BS mistakes from the later Biden years.

Non-binding resolutions are a mockable waste of time. They do nothing for affordability or corruption or reducing the chances of an AI bail-out.

That's defeatist. Everything they do right now is a mockable waste of time by those standards. This is better than nothing and signals intent.

And this is how the game works, as easy as taking candy from babies

Is that an impossibility? Is WWII's good/bad guy split genuine?

Nobody's perfect, sure. But can one side be significantly better than the other in politics at times?

If you can't see the rather stark difference between the two parties, and which one is obviously better for the country and not just the wealthy or hateful, then you are a broken person. And there are a lot of broken people so you've got plenty of company.
