  • They’ll say primaries are the time to disagree then vote blue no matter who in the general, but you see how they tried to sabotage Mamdani.

    Yes, but Mamdani did something that liberals are still scratching their heads on how to use to their advantage-- social media. The right managed to successfully exploit the new digital machinery to brainwash people. But the actual progressives and left are learning from their previous mistakes and using social media to gain attention and improve their messaging. It is gradually working as more and more progressives are getting elected on the local level.


  • And Dems should stop with “voting for lesser evil”. Are they saying they’re still evil? I mean, sure, on presidential elections, do that if there are no better alternatives to neoliberal Democrats running. But in the meanwhile, there should be grassroots attempt to primary progressives in local elections and then work their way up to federal level. The left used to be good at organising. And now modern day Americans will have their ancestors, who ended the gilded age and elected the two Roosevelts, rolling in their graves for passivity and being brainwashed by corporate media to accept breadcrumbs because “perfect is the enemy of good” thought terminating cliché that most Americans accept.
