Nope, party flips have happened before and they will happen again. You sound extremely condescending for someone who doesn’t know nearly as much they think they do.
The Democratic Party is run by deeply monied interests. You well never succeed in “converting” it to socialism. and no, getting a handful of candidates like AOC elected over the course of a few decades doesn’t show that you can. It actually proves the opposite point.
Today’s Democratic Party is more conservative than ever so all of you claiming we can convert are either incredibly naive, or deliberately trying to sabotage leftist movements.
You ever seen proof for this or did you just hear it and it sounded right?
Lmfao the Democratic Party used to be the part of Slavery and Segregation, and then what do you know, one of those party flips you literally mentioned happened and they became the ones spearheading the fight for civil rights in Congress. I see no reason the same can't happen around capitalism.
And now they are the party of genocide. Hey! Maybe you're right!
Sure you can say that, but half the party supports a ceasefire, the entire republican party would glass gaza from orbit given a chance.
Biden just called Trans people part of the fabric of our nation rofl what the fuck are you on about
Inb4 "well that doesn't count" lol
