Also saying “vote harder next time!” while they essentially rolled over for Trump the first 3 weeks really just screams “we don’t actually care, but we still want power and your money”

Perhaps the more than 1/3 of the electorate that didn't vote at all might be a more tangible problem to address....

Instead of blaming people who are clearly sick of being force fed the “lesser evil” while things continue to get worse. Maybe we should hold Dems accountable for running shitty candidates and almost never following through on their bare minimum promises.

Okay....let's hold Dems accountable... for everything that they did wrong... excellent...

Now let's imagine that that's been done...in spades... they're now hanging their heads in shame and being marched off to oblivion...

Now what?

Perhaps the Harris should have offered something in her campaign to improve people’s lives, instead of “well it’s either me or Trump”. Also maybe Biden could gave done something fundamentally different from Trump when he still had a majority in Congress.

Cool, cool...
I get it... Dems didn't do anything right...

Now that we've established that... what's your recommendation on a path forward...?

Also I never claimed to have the answers, but understand that at this point supporting the Democrats and/or blaming voters will only push this country further into facism.

Perhaps I'm just too radical...but I'm a big fan of the La Résistance approach to the Vichy during a time of national crisis.... while nurturing an active resistance both politically and en masse..

But, hey... that's just me.

Enjoy your day 😉

Start by starving the DNC financially until it’s good and dead. Work in building progressive coalitions locally and then have those numerous networks work together.

Okie dokey...dead democracy party...yay....

Building progressive coalitions...( That shouldn't take more than a day or two)...
Have networks work together...more yay....

Meanwhile...the world will just stop and wait for all of this to come together...

No, she’s advocating for the Dems to either act like an opposition party for once, or get out of the way.

Republicans have roadblocked Dems without a majority, so there’s no reason Dems shouldn’t be doing everything they can when the roles are reversed.

starfinder.bsky.social•11 days ago

That's fine...

But...."get out of the way" for who ?

I'm not implying that the Dems are currently an effective opposition...and my approach is probably a bit more "radical"....but being dismissive isn't a solution for anything.
