The dems would rather lose to fascists 100 times than cede even a modicum of power to the left

Democratic socialist policies are popular. Hell, they’ve been popular even when presented by republicans and posed as “patriotic” Universal healthcare isn’t popular with conservatives, but I’m sure patriotic fair care would be just fine

They're framing it as being stolen because for once the party is shifting without being bought. If you take something without paying, that's theft. Just common sense, honestly. (This is a joke.)

I never understand their shock when constituents aren't excited to vote for them. They've become the Party of One Step Forward — who are eternally meeting in the middle with the Party of Five Steps Back.

It doesn't sound insane, I have a similar history of belief. It's wild how much further left than Democrats it is to genuinely care about humanity.

They've spent my entire adult life telling their most reliant voter blocs that they'd rather chase a guy who's never voted for them than advocate for them. The way top Dems talk about people who live in cities is so vapid. Not shocked at all that DSA has had so much success in places like NYC.

republicans certainly believed that’s what the democrats were. in the wake of the cold war, the party took that as the reason they lost 5 out of 6 presidential elections in a row rather than acknowledging it was a simple matter of the dixiecrats finding a new political home after lbj betrayed them.

The language corporate/conservative media used to describe the Dems would definitely convince you of that, if you believe words have "meaning"

Why would it sound insane, that’s how they’ve always marketed themselves.

They were before they turned neo lib corpratists

The DNC will say " Vote Blue No Matter Who!" And then give us the most heinous candidates imaginable. But now that we have actually good people making changes that matter, suddenly it's "No! Not like that!"
