I was just talking with a friend about this. How do you build up a left-wing populist party? Establishment Dems seem like they’d rather lose than bring in progressives. So it’d have to be very grassroots, right? Tea party definitely had some help from the top at the time

Person on right is glad because they saw the death that was avoided. Person on left is sad because they see what is lost. America voted which path, and I’ll be generous and say that neither passenger could see the other side’s track

I agree, but what do you do about that? I’m not out here geo-engineering albedo shit to still climate change.

So where does the blame go? I think at status quo Dem leadership when people are genuinely anxious and struggling. Maybe Kamala did the best she could for who she is, but the DNC should have been retired when Obama won

I posted twice, automod got one of them, but the other was gloriously empowering. Can recommend 8/10 Edit: I’m definitely a lurker though. We have value and votes, and are important to the ecosystem!
