-right wing dems yell at us not to vote 3rd party every 4 yrs
-we run leftists in dem primaries
-socialists win democratic primaries bc voters realize they’re actually invested in advancing the agenda rw dems simply lie about
-right wing dems demand socialists create 3rd party
This assumes blue is blue. That Cuomo would deliver for NYers as Mamdani is. That Fetterman governs like Abdul and Platner will. Harris lost to the couch. Electing Dems who make life better for people inspires people to vote blue because it makes a difference in their lives.
I'm not going to tell you what you cannot have and should not fight for.
I'm not going to tell you that "the next election is the one where we can focus on healthcare because right now it's just too dangerous."
BS. The right time is NOW.
Really incredibly odd that centrists haven't had the thought "oh we need doorknockers and people who are excited" once in the last decade until the left won big. Didn't hear this after Trump won twice. Why is that
indeed, I do look forward to watching van jones buckle down and organise the five and a half legitimate moderate "democrats" who still exist outside of washington d.c. or silicone valley into a dominating coalition LOL should be entertaining
Reasonable Democrats are going to have to get off their couches, roll up their sleeves and start organizing real voters on the ground.
We can no longer rely only on TV ads, digital spend and endorsements. Just donating from afar and complaining about the DSA won’t cut it.
The DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) can beat moderates in a growing number of blue strongholds. Why? Because the DSA has patiently built an army of on-the-ground organizers — who go to meetings, help each other, study together and THEN work to turn out voters on Election Day. That army grows every day — election or no election. Their investment in real people grows (and compounds) with each election cycle. The DSA has a bigger army, every time, win or lose.
But at the end of any election, all moderate Dems have for their efforts is a bunch of ads that nobody will ever see again. That’s not going to work anymore.
If you are a Democrat who believes in opportunity, dignity and democracy for all — but you don’t hate rich people, cops, free enterprise, the West, Israel and the United States of America — I’m talking to you!
@harrisonjaime@tylrr_tyler clearly, they HAVE the support of the Democratic voters, seeing as they keep winning the primaries. you and your party donors just need to cry harder about it, I guess.
I say this with no ill will or animosity: if you hate the Democratic Party, then please don’t run for our nomination.
Don’t use our resources. Don’t rely on our volunteers. Don’t use our infrastructure. Don’t ask Democrats to invest their time, money, and energy in your campaign.
Focus on building the party you actually support.
Political parties aren’t perfect, but they’re built by millions of people who knock doors, make calls, organize meetings, and fight for the values they believe in. If you don’t believe in the party, then don’t ask its members to carry you across the finish line.
Pretty revealing that what galvanized “centrist” Dems was losing to a couple DSA candidates not for example, losing to a bunch of corrupt fascists who want to end Democracy.
Everyone needs to hear this.
The UN didn't print the names of Palestinian children murdered by Israel.
Why?
Because they feared Israel would respond by murdering their families.
Israel is a threat to everyone on earth.
Just going to continue emphasizing that this, detaining a bunch of people who haven’t been convicted of a crime and incarcerating them en masse in a fortified location against their will because they are part of a specific ethnicity or other group, is a concentration camp
