      And what about the federal level? Just let Republicans do install Fascism while you’re working on voting the Mamdanis into cities?

        The party knows what it takes to win and refuses to do it. The electorate won’t change just because you think they should.

          Of course they refuse to do it! They need to cater to their bosses - the corporations! But I already explained that in the other thread with you, so I won’t repeat it here.

          Huh… You cared enough to complain, but when it’s time to actually look at the reality of the situation you no longer care? Funny how that happens.

              Looking for a fight? By asking you questions about the physical reality we live in…?

                The reality we live in indicates that second worst doesn’t win elections. The electorate isn’t going to change. If the party wants to win (which is doubtful given their actions), the party has to adapt to that reality.

                  People were complaining about either party for 50 years, saying they’re voting for the “lesser evil” all the time. Not sure what your point is.

                  As for the party adapting - are you joking? We’re talking about the USA. The party doesn’t adapt to what the voters want, the party adapts to what the corporations want.

                  Voters can have an impact (New York will, hopefully, pave the way), but your choice is still “lesser evil or literal fascists”.

                    As I have explained many times before, I vote for democrats. They cannot win as lesser evil anymore. The electorate has changed and that no longer works. The party must adapt or keep losing. That’s just reality. I know they won’t change and I know they’ll keep losing regardless of how I vote. And I know that I’ll keep being blamed for every loss by centrists who don’t care how anyone votes as long as they don’t try to hold their politicians accountable.
