The way I always put it, moving left may not win us elections (and those imagining a quiet leftist supermajority need to talk to more normies), but sure as shit it's been proven that neither will moving right.
Moving left will improve the country, while moving right will make it worse.
Ceteris paribus, the choice should be obvious: moving left isn't a panacea for our electoral problems, but it is still very much the preferable choice. Caution may be called for on specific issues, but in general, the American electorate is not very ideological in any coherent sense. 'Left' and 'right' are feelings for them, and they'll side with whichever 'sounds good' at a given moment.
Let's purge the Dems of these ancient neoliberal ghouls and move fucking left. I'm so fucking tired. If we still lose, at least this time we'll lose with a little basic fucking dignity. Which isn't much, but still a hell of a lot better than selling out and losing anyway.
