    Whether they actually are good for us and are actually fighting for us or not, constant smear campaign fueled by wealthy bad actors and foreign powers is going to have impacts on the vote.

    Sometimes we need to fight back against bias by evening out that scale, declaring the value in voting blue no matter who.

    Even if we think Democrats might shit the bed, we need to make it clear we have to prevent Republicans from pumping gallons of shit into the bedroom.

    This group of progressives, “Our Revolution” was a continuation of the Bernie Sanders election campaign, and Bernie Sanders spent today yelling at the top of his lungs as the US confirmed a health secretary who actively promoted the unnecessary death of infants and argued with him on pharmaceutical company profits.

    Voter Outreach and party platform is OUR JOB. Not just the DNC.

      Who’s the one running the primaries, collecting donations and buying ad space?

        Who are the ones voting in primaries, donating, and volunteering?

        Bernie Sanders was in the 2016 and 2020 primaries and lost by an absolutely huge margin both times. The organization isn’t the problem. How the people are voting is. Even if you “fix” the DNC it won’t fix the problem.

          They didn’t even bother to run primaries for this last election even though they had to know that Biden wasn’t going to run. They gambled on wasting the RNC’s efforts running an anti-Biden campaign when they were going to swap Harris in and lost.

          They also turned out the lights on anti-war Sanders supporters, so forgive me if I don’t think the DNC plays fair. The US is going to collapse and I can’t say we don’t deserve it.

            That’s basically how incumbent presidents have worked for 248 years. That’s not news. Biden obtained 14,465,519 out of 16,610,102 votes in the 2024 primary election, 87.09% and obtained 3,894 delegates while the runner up received 35.

            He had every right to pass his chance on to his VP and I thank him for it, it was a valiant effort and took a lot of courage I’m sure.

          I can say I am against the DNC and that they are going to lose their leadership whether they like it or not. There’s a new generation of Dems and the Dems will die and there’ll be a new party or they will accept the policies that supermajorities of Dems and republicans support and kick their loser ass leadership who only knows how to get donors money and lose elections

          I suppose not, I guess if the only two choices are for or against “christofascist oligopoly” I’ll just stand back and make fun of you for making that choice
