Well, it doesn't matter what your opinion of them is...
This is (pretty much) a democracy so what the majority (of states) wants is what matters.
And they don't believe the turtles pace of 80 year old neoliberals is fast enough.
We can stomp our feet and call them names, or we can push for progressives willing to fix shit fast enough that it has a noticeable result to even the average American....
Don't forget, that's always been an option.
Americans have consistently shown they don't want a progressive or socialist.
You're going to point out Mamdani and I'm going to point out he hasn't won yet.
They get ratfucked. They're really popular actually. Look at mamdani
If progressives are so popular why is Sanders and AOC the only ones in their party?
They're shut out by the party. Remember when AOC got snubbed on a committee assignment and it went instead to a guy so old he died of prostate cancer just in time to give Republicans enough votes to get BBB past the house? Dude should have retired years ago!
Progressives always think democrats are the obstacle when it's usually progressives who are.
They're no stranger to hypocrisy though with them all thinking Biden is too old but Sanders is in his prime.
He literally aged out with 3 months to go before the election and got terminal prostate cancer the next year.
Biden would still be better than what we have.
We literally tried Biden and it didn't work
I would want Biden as president any day over the dipshit currently in office.
Realize I'm talking to a less than day old alt of an account I probably blocked a year ago...
Have fun moderating one of the fedivers's only conservative communities!
I'm sure we've talked within the last month but yes I've moved to piefed instead of lemmy.
