It's a shame that this country is about to be taken over by pathological liars, trolls and lunatics.

I mean, the issues are systemic. We could say the Dems should do this or that, but at the end of the day they're beholden to corporations & lobbies. Maybe not as much as Republicans. They're not interested in allowing a viable 3rd party to form.

Putting that aside, what would be good for the Dems? Messaging-wise they should abandon identity politics & embrace economic populism. Half the ppl on this forum think Dems = groomers wanting to change your child's gender and then molest them. Still protect the vulnerable and minorities legislatively, but don't mention race, sexuality, gender identity, etc. Their policies should benefit everyone, except the ultra rich.

So yes it's great to promote & support, for example, black female businesses. But many of the talking heads you see advocating for this end up dividing people. They think if minority group X gets something, that means everyone else gets nothing or worse, must give up something. Maybe the answer is to be colorblind, LGBTQ-blind. Our policies cover everyone so race, gender, orientation are irrelevant to the conversation (while still important personally). Idk maybe that's easy for me to suggest as a white guy. I think Bernie Sanders '16 & '20 platforms were our best shots at restoring balance to our egregious income inequality economic system.

Almost 20 million Democrats stayed home.

They need to listen to their constituents. Trump is a slimeball, but at least he gives the impression that he listens. Democrats don't listen to their voters' concerns, take them for granted, demonize some of them and then assume voters are going to support them on election day.

They're still clueless and NOT listening.

Yes keep going left, I beg you. Continue to campaign with soon to be prisoner Liz Cheney. You’ll continue to lose.

I think you misspelled re-elected.

You need a reality check.
There isn't anything remotely Marxist anywhere in American politics, it's nothing but corrupt and war mongering capitalists among Democrats just like among Republicans.
Nobody in politics cares about the country, they all care exclusively about enriching the richest of the rich ever further, while making the wildest promises to voters but never keep them, Democrats and Republicans alike, there is next to no difference.
There's nothing remotely left in news media either, because they all run propaganda for one of the two parties, meaning they run propaganda for corrupt and war mongering capitalists.

Marxism exists in the middle of capitalism and is spreading independent from political forces, because Marxism doesn't want to be in politics, it's exclusively a concept of how to organize production of stuff.
The advantages are from a capitalistic profit point of view so huge, that ever more companies go for it, no matter what the large corporations and their shareholders want.
Marxism is the idea of getting rid of authoritarian owners of businesses and rich share holders sucking money out from above, Marxism is the idea of a company owned by the ones doing the actual work, making all business decisions democratically among all the workers, they are known in the US as "worker co-ops" and their numbers are increasing especially in Silicon Valley where ever more startups discover there's way more profit for everybody actually working if there aren't people on top sucking out profit.
