    Then primary the bad actors and reform the Democrat party.

    This is your option. There is no other option than violent revolution and I can assure you from spending my entire life in this country that modern Americans don’t have it in them.

    If conservatives can morph the Republican party into the traitorous entity it is now, then liberals can reform the Democrat party to move more to the left.

    History proves party reformation is possible, and inevitable.

        It’s not for liberals to move the democratic party left, it’s for everybody that wants the democratic party to change to do so.

          I only used that word cause of the person I replied to. I personally don’t view the Democrats as capable of moving left, at least not on the major stage. The only way to get a leftist party is to destroy the major parties through violence.

        Then explain why the entire planet is capitalist and yet other countries have FAR more left leaning parties.

        The Democrat party can be moved left if liberal voters make it happen.

          Depends on what you’re talking about, but usually it either means they are in the global south, or have otherwise had a longer history of working class organization or proximity to socialist countries. Not by voting.
