Last election democrats almost won and progressives almost won a seat.
If Democrats could've budged even a little bit to the left, they would've won and stopped Trump. But they couldn't. They also couldn't hold primaries before the presidential election.
You don't need to be a psychic with a crystal ball to determine that Kamala couldn't win, especially not with her strategy of shifting to the right and appealing to voters that literally don't exist.
Democrats spent more energy systematically suing third-parties off the ballot than attracting the voters they were so afraid of losing to third-parties.
Who has a better chance than Harris?
How are you going to change things before the 20/6 midterms?
The voters should've been able to determine that with a primary. Instead the senile old man held on until the last minute and there was literally no time for a primary. After that, Democrats wasted a billion on a failed and rushed campaign.
I already said what I'm going to do. Everything that is in my power, and encouraging others to stand in their power.
What are you going to do? Keep blaming the Bernie Bros until Trump takes away all of your rights and installs himself as dictator?
What are you doing to do?
How are you going to change a thing?
Convince others to stand in their power and do everything in my own power. I don't need to elaborate further.
Like I said, a critical mass of Americans need to realize their power and demand better.
If you want to spread feelings of helplessness, encouraging others to see themselves as small and powerless, while also continuing to blame progressives (the people who want to achieve progress), that's your decision.
I'm hopeful that you choose differently.
No I’ begging you to tell me how to do something before 2026’s midterms but you’re refusing to elaborate.

Organizing or openly admitting to anything of the nature should never be done online with the technology being leveraged against us. There are movements that exist online in spite of this, do yourself a favor and look them up to see what they are doing.
I’m asking you want you are doing.
I’m picking people I like for the Democratic primaries and I’m volunteering for their campaigns and I’m not scared to say that online.
I'm not frightened, I just don't need to elaborate further to you online. I am not naive - I'm simply aware of the technology being used against Americans and its capabilities.
All Trump has to do is twist the definition of "terrorism" to defend his power against people not committing any crimes and suddenly mass arrests start happening with AI's guidance before literally anything can manifest. He's proven that due process isn't a concern, and has already considered suspending it.
Okay then I guess that’s the end of this conversation.
I hope you reach your goals however you’re trying.
You too.
