The current Dems will stop any attempt at progressives winning anything. The first step has to be taking over the Democratic party. Find your local Dem party (every state and many cities/towns/counties have there own Dem party, and if they don’t, you can form one pretty easy) and start by replacing any conservative Dems there. “Luckily” these elections have extremely small turnout, and are relatively easy to win. These smaller Dem parties then elect leadership of higher level Dems like the DNC. Once progressives have control of the party we can choose what the party fights for and who gets support in primaries.
Alternatively, a highly popular candidate like Bernie or AOC could break from the Dems and start their own progressive party, but that would likely just lead to the Republicans always winning.
Tried this with Bernie… The DNC rigged the primary… first goal needs to be to take over the Dem party. Which would actually be pretty easy since like 5 people show up to those elections, but only insiders really ever know about them.
If you’re curious, every state, and many towns/counties have their own Democrat party… Find yours, figure out who the shills are and get like 10 people to vote for you to replace them during their next elections. The DNC leadership is elected by the state Dems, so once you’ve taken over your state you can start taking over the DNC.
This is a video… Unless you’re suggesting that it’s a deep fake, we absolutely know what happened here… What we don’t know is what led up to this guy hulking out about Palestine… But it really doesn’t matter. There is no justification for it. This is not normal or okay behavior under any circumstances. This guy is mentally ill and needs serious psychiatric help.
I nominate Cheney… Bring him on stage like she’s going to thank him for his endorsement, then punch him in the face, then have a bunch of kids from Iraq and Afghanistan kick his ass. I’d watch that.
Demanding that Dems represent us if they want our vote is not disrespectful… Demanding that the left support you while spitting in their faces is disrespectful
I hope they start making moves soon… Younger generation voters are the majority now… No need to wait until every last boomer dies
Thank you for this… Excellent work
I expect libs to be respectful and accommodating to the left… And come out swinging against the right… What irritates me is when the libs take the left for granted and continuously move right on issues to try and scrape more shit off Trump’s boots
She could say that she’ll demand Israel stop the genocide on day 1, and immediately stop sending them the means to carry it out… I bet her polling numbers would jump significantly among young people… There’s plenty of other things she could also say she’ll come out the gates swinging for, like single payer healthcare, paying for all education and cancelling student debt, tax the shit out of the rich, etc and say the Dems will primary any Dem who doesn’t get on board ASAP
Yeah I paraphrased, sorry… But I think I got the gist https://www.c-span.org/video/?c5127583/vice-president-harris-protesters-im-speaking
Edit: not sure why the link isn’t showing for me… Trying to move it, hopefully it’ll work
You’re putting words in my mouth… They are doing plenty of things. Young people are just idealistic, and see themselves as having plenty of time to correct mistakes
Those millions of people weren’t eligible to vote in 2010, a lot weren’t in 2016 too… The new generations are just coming into the height of their voting power, but instead of asking them what they want in their elected officials, the idiot libs keep asking the Republicans instead
Haven’t heard her say anything about the genocide except “shut up about it, I’m talking”
They aren’t going to pick up any votes from people who were going to vote for Trump… If they didn’t get it by now, they aren’t magically going to get it this week… Meanwhile she’s alienating millions of young/progressive people who she could have gotten to vote for her by… (Checks notes) Not supporting genocide
If you put some bacteria in a petri dish, they might even up creating a very complex system… But they’ll always be constrained by the petri dish. We can look at the petri dish and say it’s having XYZ effect, without necessarily having to get too into the weeds about the complexities of what’s happening inside the dish.
One major problem with our current economic system is that it allows a small group of people to limit resources that would not naturally have to be limited (false scarcity). Sort of like if the rules called for throwing baseballs at people’s heads to see the effects of TBIs.
Oh they are definitely insisting it isn’t happening, it’s like they forgot the Internet exists now and we’re all watching it happen in real-time
The economy is not a natural phenomenon, it was designed… Economists explaining “how things work” is like someone explaining how baseball works… That’s great, but it’s time to change to an entirely different game, so you telling me how baseball works is worthless
Ugh… We need ranked choice so bad
