Yeah if we all hate the fascists but then condemn the Democrats, we will have the numbers and the shear power to accomplish nothing….
Seriously, if you don’t like the Democrats then fucking vote for Democrats who will steer the party left. That’s what the neo-cons, tea party, maga did to change the Republican Party (and change it they did).
This notion of a progressive third party is just a waste of time by self-absorbed clique-ish people who fancy themselves too good for “the mainstream”. Grow the fuck up and work with your fellow country-persons instead of this weird romantic fantasy of third party revolution by the superior left…
I look forward to your scathing responses and down arrows. Just know that the fascists don’t care what you think because in all likelihood, that down arrow is the most you are willing to actually do….
lol ok sure that will work. this time...
Allow me to expand and clarify… Multiple people run for the same office within primaries. Some of them lean more left than others. You can support them by actually voting in the primaries (and especially in state elections), maybe even donating a few bucks or volunteer time as well. But you have to actually vote. You can also write to existing Representatives and lay out your concerns. Enough people do that on an issue, they’ll understand your concerns at least in terms of marketing. Or just poo poo everything. Write social media comments or mouth off at family dinners, both of which are meaningless gestures that change nothing.
