Of course, all of this is assuming voting even matters & we don't have to wait for an allied invasion to unseat orange Hitler, or his successor figurehead.

Sure, either way. Do you see some other group that's decisively seizing the moment?

Yes. Leftists. Look at Mamdani's success in NYC.

I'm not sure how you think we're making the same point. Mamdani is an outlier & the Dems want nothing to do with him, because they're a party of corpo stooges & AIPAC servants. Mamdani's LEFTISM is the crucial element, not the pretense to being a Democrat.

You said Dems are trash and your very first example of the sort of change agent you need is a Democrat. You're making my point. Mamdani isn't an outlier. He's a bellweather. We agree. Subvert the Democratic party with leftism.

Circumventing the party entirely seems a better overall strategy, since the only thing he's getting from them is a meaningless (D) in front of his name. He's winning on policy, & nobody outside of Blue MAGA believes in the party anymore.

He's a "Democrat" by name & necessity only, & the party wants nothing to do with him. These are key distinctions. The party itself, overall is still very much trash, & is in no danger of being pushed to the Left. It's actively been resisting any & all efforts to compell evolution.

Mandani is winning in spite of the party. They are in no way an asset & in every way represent an impediment.

he obviously disagrees with you and you really respect him as a politician (as do I) so you'll have to reconcile why you disagree with your favorite guy on a strategy that is objectively working for him

The strategy that's working for him has not one single fucking thing to do with running as a Democrat, & I already explained why in great detail, so no. I'm good. No "reconciliation" required, & this wilfully simplistic shit has earned you a mute.

you keep talking about "the party" as a monolithic entity when very clearly it is not and if mamdani understands why it's a necessity to run as a democrat I'm not sure why you can't pick up on it; if he thought he had a better chance of winning as an indie, I'm sure he would have done it

You're making my point for me, thank you. I guess we agree. Support leftist Democrats.

"Democrat" except the entire party power structure has done everything it can to subvert his success, & learn nothing from it, while spending millions to figure out why they're losing, because they don't like the answers they're getting for free. But I'll support Leftists with Dem camouflage, sure.
