You do realise that it's a big part of a politician's job to mobilise the masses to vote?
historically speaking people with power are dumb dumbs and/or go for low hanging fruit. Hence DNC courting all those republicans voters in last cycle. Old ppl vote more comparatively.
You worldview is fundamentally an anti-human dead end with no path forward
So voting dnc as a stop gap and promoting progressive candidates is anti human and no path forward? What am I then pro dinosaur?
You've basically already accepted defeat. You're admitting that the DNC will keep moving to the right regardless of our actions, and also that we have no alternative than to vote for them anyway. Have you game theoried that out to see where that ends? That's why I call it a dead-end.
