It could be different, but until we get some influencers that know how to play real politik, we won’t see any change. Our politicians think lodging a complaint with the justice department is all they can do.
You have a run a campaign, and it helps if you have a leader of the party that leads campaigns and provides direction, and cover, and air support. You don’t need focus groups and polls to tell you what’s popular, you make it popular. You know people will care after it’s brought to them, and you bring it to them.
It’s really not a radical idea, it’s how politics has been played, and still is on the right, forever. It’s only the democrats in our lifetimes that have surrendered.
I find it heartbreaking that rank-and-file Dems haven’t had the presence of mind to notice that the party machinery forces individual politicians steadily right, and continue to push the “vote blue no matter who” message. The DSA is right there, and it is only the popular narrative among self-identified left-leaning folks that voting 3rd party is “wasting your vote” that prevents us from pulling them solidly left.
