How do we feel about this? Article makes it sound like there will be a greater emphasis on deëscalation and oversight, but is that enough of a change?

    Ever notice how the Party is tougher on progressives that belong to the party they’re protesting than they are on republicans trying to overthrow the national government?

    It’s weird, right?

    Especially this year, Biden should be inviting protestors front and center and engaging in a dialog.

    That would actually get him votes at least. Even if he doesn’t budge at all, a dialog gets more votes than police abuse.

    Like, the only reason there’s protests to begin with is we can’t open a dialog.

    It’s like Biden doesn’t even want to campaign for votes. He’s not putting the work in that traditional candidates do. Probably because most Dem presidents are much younger than Biden.

      Seems the democratic party exists to keep the left under control.
