If you voted for the democrats and participated in the primaries then why are you responding to something about not doing those things? This clearly isn’t directed at you.
Except the issue is that they were participating, and the ratchet effect happened anyway.
From my experiences working third-party and leftist campaigns over the years, this is a really common story. A lot of people have burned out on voting and activism because they have done it and seen it not accomplish anything in the U.S.
Democracy isn’t something one person on their own can influence.
But it is something that one can influence by reaching out to others and making sure others vote
If you care about something, least you can do is convince your friends and family on what’s the right side to vote for, and then making sure they actually vote as well.
Nah I fell for the “We’ll push Biden left!!” BS in 2020 and all that got us was more bombs sent to Israel while he pretended to be sad about doing so along with supporting union busting and the cops.
Pushing Biden to the left got me called a russian bot and a trump supporter, because I wanted Biden to do the things he promised, and I was aginast giving Trump ammo in his re-election bid.

All leftists need to do it, not just a few. We have more power together than apart, and the only way the democrats will change is from the inside.
democrats have been saying this for decades and here we are, watching the democrats cave over and over again.
