Fucking Harry S. Truman got why this shit was a problem.
I've seen it happen time after time. When the Democratic candidate allows himself to be put on the defensive and starts apologizing for the New Deal and the fair Deal, and says he really doesn't believe in them, he is sure to lose. The people don't want a phony Democrat. If it's a choice between a genuine Republican, and a Republican in Democratic clothing, the people will choose the genuine article, every time; that is, they will take a Republican before they will a phony Democrat, and I don't want any phony Democratic candidates in this campaign. (May 17, 1952)

Remember that if you are a real political party, your end goal is to enact policy. Winning election is just one mean (amongst many) to achieve that.
Abandoning policy to win election means that you are an unserious political party, some would say a lifestyle brand
-
The Uniparty have the same core policy as ever.
Endless war and regime changes, unconditional support for Pissrael genociders, banks, multinationals and oligarchs.

Kamala was talking about having the most lethal military in the world in response a question about Gaza. What the fuck were they doing that's woke?
-
not killing you, personally

acknowledging public perception of the party as “weak and woke” needs to change. She is urging Democrats to “fucking retake the flag” with appeals to voters’ sense of patriotism, to adopt “the goddamn Alpha energy” of Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell and to embrace an “airing out” of potential 2028 presidential candidates in a broadly contested primary.
Slotkin plans to deliver another speech — which is set to focus on “killing sacred cows” — sometime next month.
“I don’t think we need to hide the fact that Trump is flooding the zone and making us look 12 different ways at the same time,” Slotkin said. “But again, because I come from the national security background, there’s no end to fighting unless you’re dead.”
We're trapped in the belly of this horrible machine

"we must regain control of the reich"

I open up my wallet and it's full of woke
-
My wallet sure as shit isn't filled with anything else

the democrats act like the only eligible voters for them to attract are the ones voting for the other fucking side
- "but the people who don't vote didn't vote and so long as we keep fulfilling our own prophecy they never will"

Isn't she a literal CIA type?
-
Literal CIA analyst. Bush-era psycho. Did three 'active' tours as CIA during that time & got shitcanned after the goldrush, ran a failed consultancy for less than two years & got picked up by the Dems as an asset.
-
yes
-
-
dem plan: do same shit as republicans, but fox news says you are authoritarian instead of msnbc
-
Yeah, that'll work and not make you look like a grifter to the fascist crowd. Fucking idiot, why would they vote for the Republican Lite Party when the Republican Party is right there???
paid to lose
-
Democrats are just Republicans on a five-year delay
-
Temporarily embarrassed Republicans
-
-
Surely this time Diet Republican will beat Full Strength Republican.
-
The best way to beat the confederates is to embrace moderate slavery
-
Let's just replace the election with a leaderboard for which cop shot the most family dogs over the past 4 years
-
Oh, running as south park republicans? That totally worked in 2016 and 2024
But hey, best 3 out of 5, right?
-
Michigan dems are all taking a hard right turn
-
Good, it's blatantly clear the US "left" has to be forced to go third party, cause they sure as shit aren't taking that critical responsibility on themselves
Maybe some hard CIA medicine will wake the berniecrats up, tho I doubt it considering a genocide couldn't do the trick
-
Going third-party in FPTP elections with such polarized parties as today only splits the vote. Without major election reform it's just a plain old bad idea.
-
The point is not to win national elections outright, but to solidify a base and create a nation-spanning organization capable of challenging the two parties first in local, state and then finally national elections
That requires electoral sacrifices in the meantime, sacrifices that at this point in time should be easy to make considering dems aren't winning elections anyway

"be more right wing"

I also have a war plan:
Try to spot the president preferably with a scope at 800m or more
-
center mass, bucko

something something we gotta get more racist
-
being a woman not in a bikini is already really woke by republican standards
- from both sides of the aisle taking turns to degrade the meaning of words. Amazing, that's really reaching across to each other.
-
This reminded me of one of the most cursed articles I've ever read (from 2019)
-
the only democrat I ever voted for was bernie in the 2020 primary, and it will stay that way forever
-
At least this one pretends to be progressive
-
-
You should be strong and woke.
-
I'm still in the "elections are over" camp and think Republicans will find a way to just not have elections anymore. It'd be a stupid move, but that hasn't stopped them so far.
-
Yeah she may be bad, but have you considered that there is a fucking Cheeto in the white house???
-
God damn my state
-
Tbh I’m not sure most of your typical Dem voters are gonna fall for this type of right wing framing from Dem politicians anymore. I’m not saying AOC has a clear shot at being nomination, but anecdotally when I engage with Dem voters in my personal life (of all ages), they honestly seem fed up with the Dems constantly trying to outflank Republicans from the right. I actually think a Dem that embraces the “maybe we should be democrats” idea (say like Pritzker) probably could win the nomination.
-
Maybe that's why they simply didn't hold a primary last time
-
-
Every day I add more and more people to a completely innocuous list.

New party when?
