And this is why I’m betting Sanders is going to found a new political party, and that this is actually the death of the DNC. And all of that is a good thing.

There's only so long you can pretend not to hear when they tell you exactly who they are.

Anyone who still claims to be against fascism and considers themselves in any way left leaning, and still supports not only democrats, but the idea that the system can somehow be reformed or fixed from within, is either in complete denial or completely full of shit (because they are neither antifascist nor left leaning).

Fun fact: 90% of Democrats quit moving towards the right before getting moderate republican support.

But on a serious note, I remember seeing a bunch of comments on Lemmy about how Trump was guaranteed to lose against Kamala and then far-right would splinter and die out and everything would be fine again, yet this is something that might actually happen to the Democrats, given how they're seemingly pointing fingers at everyone trying to find who to blame and who's responsible. I really hope they don't delude themselves into learning the wrong lessons, but it seems likely to happen.
