This is a response I wish I need not have. When left wing circles refuse to build to the future because the democratsare still going to be just as bad as the Republican it becomes clear that we cant have a productive conversation about the next cycle.
Maybe we move in different circles but i don’t see leftists posting about how they refuse to fight fascism with anyone unless they voted for nader in 2000 or some such.
I see liberals and rich democrats still blaming everyone but kamala and the dnc for losing. I see a democratic party elite that still thinks they don’t need policies that americans want.
“A productive conversation about the next cycle” begins with listening to americans, not listing the allies you refuse to listen to.
Wait you still expect fair viable-for-the-DNC-candidate elections next cycle?
If your efforts in “building to the future” hinge on a Democratic presidency, then I’m sorry but all your work will be for naught. You have to build for the possibility of Republicans or worse in a system as democratic as Russia.
Even if I’m wrong, there is still a 50-50 chance the Republican candidate will win, and you have to build for that eventuality too.
So sure, vote in every election, but build infrastructure to overthrow fascism now.

edit: I’ve changed my mind about interacting in this thread. It has become extremely uncivil and will only continue to devolve. I’m locking the thread
