Shifting the goal posts much? Grandparent says democracy will end, parent says that's hyperbole, you bring out healthcare?

I am on disability and use Medicare. My health access has diminished to almost zero over the last four years.

What has any Democrat done fro me, the poor and suffering?

Give me a break. Obama Pulled a Lucy with Medicare for all and I hate him for it.

Obama wasn't a candidate since 2012 or president since 2016.

Presumably the person you’re replying to knows these things? Try and respond to the best interpretation of a comment instead of assuming they’re an idiot.

What's the "best interpretation" of a non-sequitur look like, to you?

A specific example for this particular comment would be ideal, as even their reply doesn't illuminate the value of mentioning Obama despite referring to it and attempting to justify it.

Obama is a Democrat. Neither Biden, nor Harris, nor AOC pushed for Medicare for all when it was probably the easiest and most helpful time to do so; during a pandemic.

I brought up Obama's actions because it was just the ongoing legacy of neoliberalism that started under Clinton. They thought they would win elections by "going to the middle", and this is what happened.

Obama was also campaigning for Harris.

The Democrats are now the part of war and corporations and I was just done with it all.

So you voted Green, or Libertarian?

Because if it was Trump, I have bad news on all that stuff, including healthcare…

Yes, I voted for the green party.

That is a very good point

Is it conceivable that Republicans will be any better?

The hold big business has on the mechanisms of state in your country, that is the problem IMO
