If the Dems won every election on center left policies, the only option left to the Rs would be to do another party switch and go further left. That's how we get an actual left wing party.

Honestly, I'd be cool with that

We don't have to wait for Republicans to want to become socialists (what the absolute fuck is this line of thinking?). We can have more then two viable political parties with a more representative electoral system like STAR voting.

How we.vote is.controlled.at the state level as well, so we don't need a miracle to pass in congress to get these changes. In fact, some states have already passed legislation that replaced First Past The Post voting. Others are voting on it in referendums soon to!

So it's possible, gets more people involved in the political process, and gets more votes for democrats.

we just need convince the DNC that democracy is a good thing.

What?!? You mean we can't virtue signal about how the Democrats have to earn our vote, not vote, and expect the party to move away from the side that actually votes?!?!?!?!?

I get so sick of fake leftists promoting behaviors that actively go against their stated goals. I guess they're not all fake, some of them are just psycho accelerationists who would rather get 'dictator on day one' than let the Democrats have power because then they might think they won't go left if they win (and won't admit they will just keep going right like they've done for over half a century when they lose).
