CNN Poll: A third of Democrats now identify as democratic socialists | CNN Politics
21 days ago by VioletTea to c/politics
People thought the Tea Party would split the Republican Party, but they just morphed into MAGA, and entirely took over the Republican Party.
That's what the DemSocs should do. Just take over the Democratic party, whether they like it or not.
The Tea Party did split votes away from the conservatives, they were literally spurred on by Ron Paul's presidential campaign. They flipped conservative house seats, sure, but I'm pretty fucking sure Obama won that year and in 2012. Do you want to see JD Vance win? Do you like the way things have gone with the extremism from MAGA?
Hasan Piker has been proudly wearing a fucking Chairman Mao suit. He was literally fucking glazing the man just the other day on stream. How far gone are you that you've forgotten how he killed tens of millions of people in order to industrialize? Last time I checked the United States didn't need to kill millions of it's own citizens in order to pull itself out of poverty - oh by the way the Great Depression happened.
Fuck - all this revisionist history from tankies on this platform really has cooked your brains, hasn't it?
The oligarchy has aligned themselves with anyone that further their goals. The oligarchy owns every major social media platform and have been fomenting extremism for decades but your political movement isn't extremist because you're different (you aren't, you just color yourselves differently).
You are a sheep, and you all speak the same way 'we don't this, we don't that, we support this etc.' Any movement filled with so many people who seem to think that they can be the mouthpiece for everyone grouped with them is filled with idiots and charlatans.
Edit: two week old user lmao, you're a fucking DSA shill - thank you for outing yourself I'll be sure to remember you.
If the oligarchy didn't support the DSA there would be no coverage of them outside of fringe, independent media outlets. I don't think you understand how truly captured the media environment is in the U.S., or you're acting as if you don't which is certainly worse.
DSA = blue MAGA.

If the DSA did more than attack liberals I might be inclined to think this is a good thing, but so far they can't win in any district that isn't overwhelmingly blue. Not sure how they're going to beat back conservatives.
Idk, I think the DSA is only going to succeed in fracturing the Dems. We'll see.
