Cory Booker has been filibustering for a while, but there's no legislation that he's stalling.

Again I do not disagree with your point about liberals being dog shit, the Dems being dog shit, and so on.

However this one action isn't nothing imo, The action disrupted the Senate. I hope they continue to disrupt the Senate. Like you said they're liberals, they're progressive capitalists at the end of the day. We can't expect them to work to overthrow the capitalist structure, that our job. But if my options are to encourage the childish anti fascist liberal behavior that's doing some slight action, or never compromise and let the liberals grift further to the right because they realize that the real left will never be happy. I'm going to encourage them to be childishly antifascist. Id rather have begrudgingly support liberal antifascist than nothing at all personally.

For real: What would you rather they do to start to disrupt the Republicans? I mean this genuinely as you seem intelligent, because frankly outside of blocking procedure idk what you expect.
