We fundamentally disagree on what “doing nothing” means. Voting for democrats so they don’t have to change to stay relevant seems like doing nothing to me. Letting the democrats fail seems like doing nothing to you. But think of this. I am but one and my thoughts on the matter are not unique. Unless democrats are forced to change in some way, they will never have a unified front, and they will doom us all.
I disagree. Doing nothing to me is letting progressives be surpessed and die so they can never organize and proliferate their ideas. Even in better political systems people sometimes have to vote strategically to ensure that.
I sincerely hope you are doing something more than just handing victory to republicans and hoping the dems find you important enough. The republicans will make sure you can never reorganize or even exist if you let them. Rather than it just being very hard under dems.
