If we actually get any say with the Democrats, I donāt believe we do, the leadership needs to change and rules need to be in place for how the party is funded but the government is so compromised Iām not sure where we would have to start. We have ended up a feral country, and even our economic relationship with the rest of the world has changed forever.
The fascists are here and have autonomous killing drones and are part of the military now so Iām not too sure.
And DSA is the first incremental step back towards that. You form a third party and see how far you get without Citizens United money.
It is a horseshit sandwich, but itās what weāve got right now. Perfect canāt be the enemy of good, especially right now.
Enemy of my enemy and all, nahmean?
Edit: more accurately, the more we can do to frustrate the actual evil, the more time we ultimately have to find the real solution. Again, it isnāt perfect, but its the solution we currently have.
And the DSA movement is taking that illusion and attempting to effect the change we seek, an inch at a time.
And thatās the only way progress happens right now unless youāre willing to flip the table society rests upon.
But as we have seen it does not work.
People have been preaching incremental voting as long as trickle down economics and it all leads here.
We need to go back to the New Deal era of policies and have a party that stands for those principles
What do you propose as the next step?
Hm. Crickets. Figures.

Right. So we donāt have to vote for neoliberals.
