The point is we failed to promote the DNC in those months when it actually mattered and millions of people who voted for the party before stayed home instead. We need to promote the DNC, not just shit on them. We need to convince people to vote for those fucking mummies and those tech and science illiterate dolts because the alternative is worse and we need to scream that from the mountaintops “The DNC will protect you. The DNC will enrich your lives. Voting against the DNC is self-harm. The GOP wants DEATH for Profits.”
After the primaries yes, we should do all of that. And though it sounds like I’m taking a shit on the dnc (well tbh I kinda am), the way I see it they’re in serious need of some constructive criticism, because ironically for a “democratic” party they’re incredibly out of touch with their voters, proved by a good portion of them not even showing up for them the last major election. Now is the perfect time to work on the dnc.
The DNC will protect you. The DNC will enrich your lives
See this might be marginally true, certainly more true of the dnc than the gop, but that’s a low bar and there’s so much room for improvement. A lot of Dems are transparently in the pockets of the wealthy, and many protections are lip-service at best. I’ve even read articles recently about a few dem politicians walking back their pro-trans-rights positions. If now was post-primary, I’d be hold my breath ticked off that the lesser evil chose to be a little more evil at the last second, but now is the time to clean up the mess and build a more popular and representative dnc before the next major election. They can start by taking a sloganeering class
