For me, it’s the fact that they’re unwilling to adopt these (clearly winning) political policies. Instead, they’d rather just suppress them.

We’ve seen this strategy from all of the megacorps already: smother the small company that refuses to be bought out and then, after they’ve died, pick out the most recognizible bone from the corpse to parade around, despite the fact that the bone carries next to none of the meat people wanted.

The problem is that the US political commission is framed as an electoral mandate to rule, instead of citizens electing someone based on their (perceived) ability to read their constituents’ wants. So most establishment politicians when faced with criticism act like “you crowned me king, so why are you complaining?” instead of thinking “okay, either I’ve misunderstood what you wanted me to do here or I’m not explaining how what I’m doing serves what you want.”

At best, we get pacification, and hardly ever reconcilliation.

Centrist dems seem to not care that they are hemorrhaging base voters and lost the last election doing the same thing. At least the voters arent as focussed on their genocide support these days.

Translation: centrist Democrats are going against the will of their constituents who don’t want centrist Democrats anymore. They want people who will actually fucking do shit.

Honestly I hope that progressives manage to get enough of a power base to either split from the Democrats or take over the party.

The young generation needs to get off their asses and vote the “centrist” Dems out of existence.

Its not enough to keep this momentum going. We need to double, triple, quadruple or more this momentum. Strike them hard and strike them fast.
