Do you think there is a chance the democratic party comes out of this more progressive/leftist? (lemmy.world)

So the democratic party seems to be in a civil war right now between the old guard like Schumer and the more progressive side like Bernie and AOC. But the conservatives seem to be fractured themselves based on some of the town halls we’ve been seeing, even if the media wont report in them, which could lead to more republicans fleeing to the democrat side making it more right wing. However, It’s clear the old strategy may wasn’t working and many on both sides want more progressive ideas. But was the failure of the 2024 election enough to shake up the party? What are your thoughts?

They are enabling racism. Bernie would have been an fdr 2 but they blocked that. They’re just facism light. We need a working class people’s uprising and party. Unions, general strikes and solidarity
