Fr, funny how these alt-left mfers love democracy except when it turns out their candidate just doesn’t have the votes. If Jill Stein couldn’t win a majority of left voters via a primary, then how is she going to win a national election? And why can’t these alt-left parties ever start grassroots movements at the local level, instead they only care about presidential elections and just want to skip straight to the endorsement without winning any primaries, and if they can’t do that then they take their ball and go home?
Because, like I said, they have no ambitions of political influence. Only virtue-signaling and purity-testing.
Bingo.
It's the whole Palestine thing. They chose not to vote or vote 3rd party, which helped put the side objectively worse for Palestine in control, because they never actually cared about Palestine. They only cared about their own feelings. Their own self satisfaction.
You lost because of the economy and borders. Genocide supporter
takeaway could be "the democrats would rather lose to fascists than oppose genocide and gain third party voters"
Which is the reason they (dnc) didn't release the post election findings. Of course their die hard supportors won't acknowledge or accept that
They just said they found proof and didn't actually wanna release it. I'm sure that means nothing.
Proof of what? Their failures in general or something else?
Because they clearly don't want to acknowledge anything they did wrong to fix it

The failures of their party. But it's not failure when they know better and actively choose not to, while shaming those who want it.
The DNC is controlled by the same capitalists as Republicans, they just pretend to be nicer.
I still find it hilarious they say they will reach out to constituents more when for 2024 they just ignored the feedback they didn't like
And any feedback was called unrealistic goals (to stop spending money in genocide and support policies that people like to hear).
