Lemmy gearing up to sit out another election and then bitch about who gets elected while taking no accountability? Na.
No. You see, the Democratic Party was holding them at gun point to ensure that they didn't oppose fascism. /S
At this point we need to create a mechanism that allows public pressure on a party.
Switching from FPTP voting (one-person, one vote) to something else will allow for other parties to have a chance but that will take time to brew.
We're not ready for sortition (selection of officials by lottery) but that would end the career of politicians. And having barbers and coal miners govern is better than what we got now, even if they'll need a lot of handholding, and an institution to swat away lobbyist pests.
The voters really did a number breaking open Pandora's jar in November. It's a fine mess they've brought upon us, and one we may not survive to clean up.
Better not try then....
The only way the Democratic Party will return to the left is if they start losing votes to the left.
Their only guiding principle is winning elections, and to win elections they chase undecided centrist voters, and to chase the undecided centrist voters they lurch to the right whilst assuming that leftists just owe them their vote.
Lol, if their guiding principles are winning elections they are failures. In my lifetime they've handed power over to the most idiotic unhinged people I've fortunately have never had to be around, and Ive been around very stupid people.
Either way you are deflecting.
Im just tired of people who the only thing they are good at is giving up constantly feel the psychopathic need to come at me with their bullshit.
