    We can’t control the American voters so complaining about them doesn’t actually accomplish anything.

    We can, however, change the Democratic party to better align with the voters.

    That should be everyone’s focus.

      “We can, however, change the Democratic party to better align with the voters.”

      Can you though? It’s not for lack of trying but y’all don’t seem to be having much success with this.

      Or maybe your methods just need work. Instead of just bitching and moaning about the DNC on the internet you can actually get off your gaming chair and run for office at the local level and convince real people to vote for you.

        What?!

        Ken Martin is a huge win as chair…

        Like, we already changed the party. It happened.

        That’s why I went from constantly shit talking the DNC to promoting it.

        Neoliberals bet everything on Biden/Harris, and now they don’t have control of the DNC anymore.

        The only people who shouldn’t be happy about that is conservatives

      Your comment is both reasonable and reflective.

      The DNC bots have came to lemmy. Like on reddit how they post some BS blaming others for not supporting a candidate that didn’t represent them in the primary and likely wouldn’t have in their office. Then they downvote reasonable criticism to guide the conversation to make it seem like their opinion is the only correct one.

        This is irrelevant. On election day you get two options and you have to pick whichever one comes CLOSEST to representing you. A ton of whiny little bitches stayed home or voted 3rd party (pointless) because Democrats didn’t align PERFECTLY with them. That shit ain’t happening in reality. You grow up and pick whoever is CLOSEST.

          because Democrats didn’t align PERFECTLY very well at all with them

          That shit ain’t happening in reality. You grow up and pick whoever is CLOSEST.

          Interesting, because it looks like people chose a different option here in reality. Maybe you’re wrong and just wanting your ideal to be the case?
