@_Resnia@trouble_man90 & they’re complicit in trumps fascism if they refuse to listen to the people they hope will vote for them or communicate their policies in a way that actually excites people, even w/ political realities, it’s still on them to excite average people to make a trip to vote
@_Resnia@trouble_man90 today’s establishment dems are old, weak, or ineffective. IF they communicate with the public since Trump’s presidency it’s only to make a superficial vibes statement devoid of any actual substantive action, punch left, or tell you what’s not possible.
@_Resnia@trouble_man90 If that strat failed in the last 2 elections, doing it again should make us question the party leadership's decision making & if they're actually focused on how they lost & how they can win... but..if I don't actually care who wins, it's probably easier to just make my base fight
@_Resnia@trouble_man90 & that's exactly people's frustration. The DNC wants their voter base excited to vote, but their entire campaign is defined by opposing Donald Trump. Their unwillingness to stand for any real change of substance beyond that point, is what leads to some voters not showing up.
@_Resnia@trouble_man90 Trump lied but became popular by speaking honestly to political dysfunction & cosplaying w/ popular populist values. Even if some want to return to the comfort of mild incremental change, it won’t. So politicians need to boldly champion actual change if they hope to earn votes
@_Resnia@trouble_man90 Ok, well i think if you don’t have clear policy expectations of your candidates but feel strongly about those who challenge the party’s chosen ill-offensive loyal centerist then you missed the lesson of 2016 and 2024 should ask if you would rather fetishize party loyalty or win.
@obicubana7@trouble_man90 yeah he’s a republican. Why would he ask if a democrat is going to run when McConnells death wouldn’t change who runs for the dem party??
@WonderKing82 what do you guys want ? i don’t hear any clarity of demands the way DSA has spoken on their issues of importance. So what is it that you want? What do yall stand for ?
People like this are so funny to me because OK, what demands are you making of our candidates? What is it that you want exactly?
Because i’m not sure i’ve heard a consensus of clear answer on that. Or is it just that you want to fucking whine online?
DSA get mad as fuck when we say we will treat their candidates the same way they treated Hillary Clinton & Kamala Harris.
Why y'all mad that we will treat your candidates with the same energy they gave our candidates?
Is something wrong with how y'all treated Clinton & Harris?
