You could support better candidates during primaries and engage more in local politics, but dooming on the internet is more fun I guess

Oh okay cool beans, you mean the better (left) candidates that get universally demonized by the leadership and donors of the Democratic party, so those same people never have to actually effect change and can keep asking for five dollars to definitely stand for something this time?

Then it looks like you have to do some grassroots organizing buddy. Considering the low approval rating of a lot of House/Senate Dems, 2026 will be a good opportunity to clean house

Maybe those left candidates just suck if the voters don't want them.

Impossible! The only reason Bernie didn't win any primaries (yet would have won the general election, for sure) is because the DNC ... backed the Democratic candidate, instead of the socialist who had taken every opportunity to dump on the Dems, I think?
