    Funny there is no mention of primarying corporate Democrats with progressives while they’re at it. “Vote blue, no matter who” won’t cut it if corporate Democrats will remain and keep enabling fascists. It’s time for a full progressive takeover.

      It’s always both. Obviously try and get the most progressive blue candidate you can every time, but corporate Democrats are still at least marginally better than full-throated fascists.

      It being “time” for a progressive takeover doesn’t really mean much if progressives aren’t running, or primary voters aren’t supporting them. Do you have a plan to make either of those things happen?

        Organising grassroots and educating people on having a better leftist alternative. This always starts at the community level. The American ancestors who ended the Gilded Age and elected the Roosevelts would be rolling in their graves at how their descendants became so spineless and forget to mobilise!
