"We need you to vote or else the downfall of society is on your hands but also sit out if you're mad lol. Also if the dems do something conservative, that's your fault" how inspiring.
I will go a step farther now and say "fascism is the natural state of the U.S."

Leftist don't owe dems their vote, dems have to earn it. If dems would rather be right wing, then they dont get left wing votes.
Blaming voters for "picking wrong" is incredibly stupid or intentionally disingenuous.

History teaches us that voting does not let us pick who is calling the shots. History teaches us that armed groups do.
There will never be a guarantee for anything in this world, but trying to put a square peg in a round hole for this long is insanity.

By "Fix the problems overnight" did you mean the several decades where they joined hands with republicans in making things worse for everyone?

No, advocating for voting is basically rolling over for right wingers. Democrats beat Trump, undid none of his damage, increased deportations, practiced a laissez faire approach to inflation, increased ice funding, and then lost to Trump in the rematch.

Leftists abandoned a right wing party because it is a right wing party.
How is Mamdani going to shift the democrats leftward as mayor of NYC? Winning an election by itself doesn't create change.

There will never be a time where a left wing party can gain traction in the current electoral system. What don't you get about that?
There is no way to vote for change in an electoral system made up of 2 right wing parties. The democrats will not save you.

So you just need several decades of voting to MAYBE not support fascism? Does that sound reasonable?

Democratic strategists have spent millions of dollars to aid extremists, on the theory they’ll be easier to defeat in the general election. We will all live with the consequences

Living in the real world starts with acknowleding reality beyond 7-10 word headlines.
The solution is a vanguard party of the working class, not voting for the same party that consistently has to make excuses for its right wing behaviors.

Every "progressive" that gets through is devoured by the Republican Lite aspect of the party and is rendered ineffectual, or espouses right wing talking points or strategies. There is no way to vote your way out of fascism.
