Leftism

It's almost as though -maybe, just maybe- the people who are registered Republicans like the Republican Party.

For this groundbreaking insight, I'll take my $20k/month consulting fee from the DNC now.

America's far left is just normal shit.

"Hey how about everybody gets food and can see the doctor"

"How about suck my dick and be my slave"

"Whoa whoa you two, let's be civil. Especially you, first guy 😠"

The problem, the worlld is now confirmed as knowing already, is that Americans are, for want of a better word, scum.

How's that "Schumer Strategy" working out for ya?

The DNC knew it would fail. That was the plan. Perhaps not this spectacularly, but they knew it wouldn't work. They did their job. They defended the interests of Capital.

Happy to say that I was in the 6% and 5%.

Yea but they won’t court the “left”(what little of a left exists in America) because the DNC doesn’t want leftist or even center-left policies, they like and want center-right policies that republicans 30 years ago pushed.

Maybe if they got a couple more celebrities to endorse Harris she would have won. Or maybe all the celebrities could have sung Imagine like what they did during COVID.

That's intentional. A conscious decision made by the DNC.

If the Republicans are going to call the Democrats communists and socialist regardless of how moderate a campaign Democrats run, Democrats might as well lean further left on economic policy. Appealing to the right does nothing because the right can appeal to the right better than the center-left can

@leftism

Yup. Democratic leadership would rather trump win than run a left-facing campaign and candidate. What's the definition of insanity?

They refuse to actually campaign and address people's concerns. They gaslight, minimize, denigrate, guilt trip, and verbally abuse people and then are surprised Pikachu when no one is happy or motivated to vote for them.

"You owe it to your country to vote." "You are a bad person/stupid/russian shill etc if you vote for anyone but Kamala."

These things just stroke your ego and are otherwise thought terminating. They do not get votes. Like holy fuck, if you just listen to people's concerns and talk with them, it tends to work.

But with Citizens united, campaigns focus around a capitalist spending strategy like it's Election Christmas. Bernie Sanders, Stacey Abrams, and AOC all had what I'd call "authentic" campaigns, where they requested help with canvassing and phone calls before they requested donations. Like donations were fine, but most emails and texts were asking for workers, volunteers, and physical help. Those requests were completely absent from Kamala's campaign.

The status quo just doesn't want the common person to have political literacy. If they teach us how to canvas, then we'll do it for someone who isn't status quo. If they show us how to run for office, then we will just run ourselves like AOC did. They are in direct conflict with themselves because they are trying to suppress anything except status quo Dems.

Remember Primaries? Of course that would require the DNC not to turn out the lights when they hear something they don't like.

Absolutely, we need to place blame where it belongs. Democrats fucked up bad, it is basically 2016 all over again
