Because it was hypothetical and people did not believe it because Trump is viewed as a clown. Now it's real. What's the argument? You fight for democracy once and then just quit?

My argument is they should run on stuff that resonates with voters. Satisfying people on Bluesky doesn't win elections on its own.

Which only matters if there are elections. You don't stop autocracy by twiddling your thumbs. Ask 1930s Germans.

What are you suggesting? Yelling that Trump is a dictator doesn't do anything to stop him either. Words aren't magic.

Remember when Trump was popular on immigration? Then Van Hollen went to El Salvador. The public heard the other side and Trump's never recovered. The first step in stopping autocracy is calling it out and via that changing public opinion.
