It doesn’t feel that the Democrats will actually listen much anymore, we’re shouting we’re drowning at the top of our lungs everyday and they’re like “Thoughts and prayers with a pride flag.”
There are more progressive candidates now than before, and some of them are getting into office. Pledging not to take AIPAC money is now such a thing that AIPAC is creating anonymous subsidiaries with which to donate to their opponents.
Yes, much of the Democratic party is still captured by corporations. The DNC and DCCC are still operating against Democratic Socialist candidates, but that also shows that the corporatist establishment regards the internal movement as a legitimate threat.
Also the Democratic party as a general rule still believes there should be checks and balances, and rule of law (whether or not they fully respect them at all times). The Republican party believes they should move fast and break things, and disregard laws and courts so long as they can do so without consequences.
There is a difference between the enemies you can vote for, and right now we’re experiencing the consequences of too many voters failing to show up at the polls.
Being willing to vote against Republicans isn’t the same as being willing to vote for Democrats though.
When those of us voted and still got fucked over, what is left? The Dems do not care to change or challenge the Republicans because it might mean their own kickbacks get cut.
Y’all are yelling at everyone to vote, but then what? Is it just going to be more of the same slow march to fascism that the Dems were all too happy to help speed along?
People came out and protested at Harris, like what is suggested in the meme, and she told them to shut up.
Writing in “anyone else” is still voting. I’m not saying that you should show you’re willing to vote for anyone with a D next to their name, I’m saying you should show you’re willing to vote at all. Not every non voter shares your opinion, some just don’t care.

Best way to fix that is by showing you’re willing to vote.
