Democrats are right wing and do nothing to earn our vote. But they were fighting tooth and nail to get the republican vote.

[-] UsernameHere@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

They fight to get enough votes to win.

There are no political parties with enough voters to win without winning over voters from outside their group.

Leftists are the smallest voting demographic. If they don’t start taking notes from democrats they will never win a nationwide election.

Take notes from neoliberals that are owned by lobbyists, bankers and CEOs that work against the working class? That's gonna be a hard pass, if that's what you call winning you can keep it.

Exactly… for example Fetterman, Sinema, Manchin… I’m starting to see a pattern here

[-] K1nsey6@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

That pattern is called a rotating villain which the DNC has utilized for decades to give the impression they are trying if it wasnt for those meddling politicians within their own party.

[-] UsernameHere@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Nope, that’s just lobbyist doing what they do. They can do it to any candidate even progressives like Fetterman and Sinema.

This will not change until Citizens United is undone. If leftists don’t factor this into their strategy then they will continue to lose nation wide.

There are so many ways the billionaire class can influence politicians: blackmail, bribery, threats and there will always be people trying to influence politicians. Pretending this is something the Democratic Party is colluding to is disingenuous.

There were 10 years of Democrats occupying the White House where they could have tried to overturn citizens united, there has not been a single attempt. Democrats do not want to overturn citizens united because they benefit so much from it

A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.

A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.

RULES:

1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.

2 No Trolling

3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.

4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.

5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.

6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc. This includes instance shaming.
