I’m assuming exactly what you want to happen will happen: people will abandon the DNC. It’s perfect, isn’t it? Either things drastically improve like they promise or the glorious revolution begins. There is no lose condition if we just elect DNC.
You do? I certainly don’t. I think people will vote Democrat even as the gap between them and the Republicans closes more and more, to the point where they only know which is which by the color of their logo. That’s the issue with voting not for a person, and not for a set of ideals, but for the simple concept of “anything but the worst possible outcome,” especially in a world where the worst possible outcome keeps getting worse and worse.
I picture a world 30 years from now where we’re celebrating a win for a Democrat candidate who’s exactly like Donald Trump, because his Republican opponent is somehow even worse, all while the corporations that fund both parties celebrate 300% yearly growth. We need to vote blue, not because Democrats will do anything, but because things at least won’t get worse as we continue to organize the revolution. To wait and see what they do is to waste time that would be better served organizing.
We shouldn’t be singing the praises of Democrats, because they are just as integral of a part of the system as their opponents, and it will all need to be torn down before things can be rebuilt. The biggest hurdle is going to be getting people like you to let go of your everlasting hope that somehow there’s still a slight chance that all Democrats will suddenly become different people and decide not to do the very thing they got into politics to do - to get their very own bag of blood money.
