It’s a sunk cost. The last 4 years every opportunity I would talk about how shit biden was. No one would have it. I even so much as got banned from reddit. Now here we are. We can’t depend on the DNC to solve it. If you want to fix the problem you have to cut the DNC out. They offer nothing but a swooning gaze into 1990s politics.
I don’t care how much you protest. The faster you get to where I’m at the better the shot we have at fixing it. Until then the DNC will suck up all your energy and turn it into a GOP win.
Do you have a ready-built national organization that can be successfully co-opted to supplant the DNC i dont know about?
DNC isnt just a sunk cost, its an established civic investment. Unless you think the whole system is going to collapse overnight, a takeover of an existing party is the quickest way to get real change. And if the DNC is rotten and needs to go, we can best do that from the inside.
Every “third party” either merges into a major party or devolves into a vanity party, because the only positions that matter electorally in a winner-take-all system are “i suooort the current person” or “i want them out of office.”
I think destroying from the inside is fraught with problems. If you go after the DNC it will be a fight to get state parties to fall in line. What needs to happen is a tea party esque movement to challenge the entrenched state parties. If you can beat the state party’s on the ground you can supplant them and set the agenda. Yes you can merge the parties when you want to cash out but that’s way cart before horse discussion.

Do you show uo at your local DNC meetings? Did you endorse, donate, primary, or run for anything?
If not, PLEASE DO. The smart dems are reeling, and the ones who arent deserve to be primaried.
What don’t you get about sunk cost? People staying invested in the DNC will delay any meaningful change.
What’s your alternative?
