Nobody is saying Biden should get a ticker tape parade for this. But if your first response to a good thing happening is “screw you, it should have happened sooner” no one is going to put any effort into doing the things you want.
I disagree, we have almost no recourse into actually changing the democratic party except telling them that they need to do better, and that they need to stop the ratcheting effect in favor of actual governance for the full 4 years. What prevented them from doing this 4 years ago? How will the proposal be any easier to pass now? Why are we willing to defend token gestures instead of telling them that it’s not enough?
