    The cruelty is the point.

    Hey Leftists, any luck on, like, a plan to support something yet? You’re pretty loud about not supporting the one alternative we know about so

    Preferably something realistic like a party or a person and not “workers seizing the means of production” or “everyone in the country refuses to vote” sort of pipe dream.

      Err, it seems to me like the actual leftist leaders like Mamdani and Bernie are the only Democrats with a concrete platform which is why they continue to be so popular, hope-inspiring, and motivating large numbers of volunteers, and which is so frustrating when the establishment Democrats actively oppose their campaigns and legislative agendas

          How do you square your statement “Every eligible American voter who refused to vote in 2024” with your other statement “Hey leftists”?

            Because every eligible American who refused to vote in 2024 on Lemmy is a self-described “leftist”.

            Just to bring everyone the latest score: 20 downvotes, no plan. This is entirely in line with expectations and will be the case in November 2026 as well.
