All the other bullshit aside, this isn't a hot take. This is the majority opinion on lemmy.
Outside the .world subs, sure. But .world subs during election time banned hundreds, if not thousands of accounts for daring to question why a far right cop is taking over for a far right senile racist in the party that is mostly supposed to represent anti cop and anti racist vaguely left wing sentiment.
If you weren't on the blue no matter who train, you were a Russian CCP maga troll farm bot clearly paid to ruin the US.
The Dems are in no way "supposed to" support anti-cop sentiment. Their base is increasingly anti-cop, but the party platform and leadership are 100% pro-cop and pretty much always have been.
Dems are supposed to represent their voters, the anitcop majority are voting dem, if they're voting
I think its a bit of a circle
Most people dont vote. A larger portion of those non-voters are people who hate republicans. Yes. They would be democrats if the dems stopped reaching to the right.
But also they dont vote. So the dems reach to the right. If youre not gonna vote for them, theyre gonna need to go somewhere else
So then people dont vote because the dems reach to the right.
So then they reach to the right
So then people dont vote
And all of this could be stopped and the repubs could stop winning and then we wouldn't need to keep moving right
But instead both are doing the same thing over and over and over
