Small budget cuts to the jackbooted thugs murdering you in the streets!
Slapping billionaires on the wrist in the court of public opinion, the only court that matters!
Allowing all of their legislation to get hung up by a rotating cast of party traitors and then backing them to the hilt when a progressive candidate primaries them!
Throwing money at healthcare industry donors to fix healthcare!
Restoring faith in American alliances by promising to look the other way when any of our pals decide to genocide those naughty minorities.
Gerrymandering, but this time it’s us so it’s cool!
Ahem. To be clear, I’ll vote against Trump any chance I get, but we are still totally fucked until we get politicians that can actually stand for something that big business doesn’t donate to.
Worked in New York, imagine if we all found enough Mamdani’s to change representation across a majority of states and cities.

Any that don’t work with the corrupt DNC? I was curious with this one, but upon joining their discord saw that’s all they wanted was supporting the people that compromise constantly with fascists instead of holding their ground and publicly telling them to go fuck themselves.
Nothing for my state from what I see on their candidates page so not sure what to do with them. I don’t like donating to groups I haven’t seen action from in person for. Like I adore PSL, but their only contact lately has been asking for donations and doing stuff on the other side of the country from me. DSA does stuff in my state, but I’ve gotta convince myself a 45 minute - 1 hour drive is worth it at 10 AM.
I’ve been doing that and, in a world where Democrats are actually interested in making the world better and more fair, maybe that would work.
The problem is that Democrats don’t want that. They want to continue supporting big business, deporting “illegals”, drone striking foreigners, making tons of money from corporate donations… But occasionally wave a rainbow flag. They want to keep our race into fascism under the speed limit, and are wondering why they’re getting no traction with people who want to turn the fuck around.
If they had a platform that made even modest promises about taxing billionaires, bringing bloodsucking insurance companies and predatory banks to heel, getting the police in line etc. they’d have a wildly popular platform and they’d naturally stop trying to squash progressive candidates. But unfortunately, the corporations say fixing issues will make their stocks go down.

I think that’s all anyone’s really asking.

The neat thing is anyone can enter any race. So. Y’know. They should do that. Instead, they’re . . . not. Hell, the Democrats will give you classes on how to run a campaign for your specific area if you want.
The DNC Is absolutely a colluding, complicit party in ALL of this, for decades now. (Particularly because it’s the same people who have been there for decades) but the DNC is just a container. We can pour the container out and laugh as we do so. It’s been happening lately, it’s ramping up.
They’ve had enough old-money and donors (the same donors the GOP have) to weather primary attempts for many years. It’s institutional. But the system is too large to rig entirely, the states have so much more power than they want you to believe, and it just takes enough districts, cities and states to change hands and start new representation and we can kick the legs out from under this rotten pile of garbage.
Vote Blue! Their platform includes

Vote bluer (progressive/DSA) in the primaries and then vote blue!
(I actually mean it though)

Leaders We Deserve is trying to primary establishment Dems in safe seats with actual progressive candidates.

Yeah, pretty much nobody voting in primaries is part of the reason we’re in this mess. It’s just old people for the most part
