That’s definitely a problem but that hasn’t stopped DSA members/endorsed candidates from winning elections at the local level. Which I think is really the only way a party can build momentum, starting from the bottom and working up. And I mean a labor party would have the same issue because as soon as any kind of left of Democrats party gains momentum the media will immediately start attacking them as socialist. So that’s just a problem that needs to be challenged by showing the popular things we would want to do and fighting back against the stigma associated with that cause no matter what that stigma is gonna be there.
Yeah except Democrats are generally too cowardly to actually go that far. The most we’ll probably see is lots of lawsuits against the federal government from blue states like during the last Trump admin.
