Gang, this isn't complicated. You fight the Democratic establishment 364 days a year. On election day you pick the lesser evil, which hopefully all that fighting you did made much less evil. We have an archaic election system, and until that changes (work to change it), that's the best path forward.
In other words, voting isn't enough: it's merely the first step. After "your guys" are in power, you should bully them into keeping their promises and doing more
Remember when the vote blue no matter who people told us they were gonna move Biden left after he was elected?
Good times.
Now they say he’s the most progressive President we ever had. So progressive he lost us abortion.
So progressive he broke a strike. So progressive he bragged about record oil production. So progressive he supported a genocide.
How do you bully people by guaranteeing your support for them unconditionally?
Gang, this isn't complicated. You make demands, but declare ahead of time you will not take any action to harm the Dems by not voting for them, and this give up all leverage. Then they continue to lock in GOP policies, that's tye best path forward.
As an non-american, how this is not crystal clear even for the most hardcore communists is an absolute mystery to me.
Because the US first past the post system ensures there's only two parties. So unless you can threaten one, you don't have input.
Because it’s logically stupid and ushered in fascism.
