Yeah. We should keep running more milk toast politicians with vague policies like "affordability" or "abundance" (I think that's their new term for more neoliberalism now) that'll show em!
Dude, free busses, rent control, and public grocery stores are not some "far left" policy. They are standard in much of the world.
The Democratic party is the failure that it is today BECAUSE they tried to convince you that democratic socialist policies would not win. They do. Fucking Kentucky has a publicity owned and operated Internet provider. There is nothing radical or far left about Mamdani's policy plans.
If Mamdani loses the general that should be a wake up call to Americans that even the illusion of their democracy is dead. The man behind the curtain isn't even hiding anymore.
Meaning, if Mamdani loses it is only because the full forces of the capitalist class from both of their parties were able win.
You seem to think that there is some major difference between New York and some southern town in Georgia for example. And to many degrees there are. But it's not because the people have fundamentally different wants and goals. The people throughout this country want a good job, a place to live, healthcare, and an end to wars of the empire. The major difference between them is how their concent is manufactured.
The difference isn't in policy or even in politics. The difference is in the ability to break through the existing lies they are distracted by. Racism, xenophobia, queerphobia, etc.
Most working class people in America will be open to progressive policies when they see them actually implemented successfully in major blue cities.
I'm not saying to run as a socialist in Savannah, GA. I'm saying that we do not give away ground. We continue to push for further leftists politicians like Mamdani where we can win. And that will literally shift the entire nations politics.
These are the only wins we can hope for in electoral politics right now. Because by the time we're voting for another president it's going to be to late. The fascist state will have been fully established.
