People don't want to hear that their #DSA heroes will never be elected outside of liberal enclaves. Don't want to believe that #Mamdani #AOC, and others are literal no go. They insist it is because Dems don't radical more. Then Afteyn Behn, who had a golden chance to take a Republican seat fails miserably. Doing everything the DSA wanted.
This is where we are.

I have watched these "we need to give people something to vote for" "energize the base" morons fuck us for literally my entire life.
They fucked us in 1968 and gave us Nixon, then again in 1972, again Nixon. Then in 1980 (Ted Kennedy), and we get Reagan, then again in 1984, then in 1988. They tried again in 1996 but failed but successfully fucked us in 2000 with that fucking Nader. And again in 2004, and again in 2016 and finally in 2024.
So fuck you.
Be good and vote like Black women.

The key is followthrough.

"We need to give people something to vote for" is a solid plan, but they need to then give people something to vote for.

From Harris to Behn they lost their elections because what they were offering just didn't give voters something to vote for.
