Remember Democrats, if he’s the Democrat option come election time it’s TOO LATE TO bitch!!
And that’s why I’m not a Democrat.
Jesus Christ, if you think Presidential primaries matter, I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn I want to sell you. If the Democratic primaries weren’t rigged to hell and back Bernie would have finished his second term last January. And if Democrats had been allowed to have a primary in 2024 Newsom would probably be president now.
If you want us to believe that your primaries are an opportunity for actual choice, maybe you shouldn’t have appointed a 2024 Presidential candidate who never, in her entire life, won a single fucking primary.
Again, you can rage like a lunatic and do nothing productive, or get involved and do to the Democratic party what the tea party did to the Republican party.
So it’s absolutely possible, but just bitching about the system ain’t it.
The dems havent had a legitimate primary since Obamas first election and the only reason that happened is because he had undeniable support. They have fucked every primary since, and then wonder why they lose every time it matters.
Don’t tell me I can fight the billionaire masters of the Democratic Party in the primaries when those billionaire masters canceled the primaries just last year.
We need a new progressive movement, not just to outcompete the failed Democrats, but to move this country away from a broken system of electoral politics that lets us “choose” between two oligarchs from the Epstein caste and calls it democracy. We don’t need progressives banging their heads against a billionaire funded wall and lending credibility to a rigged primary process through their participation.
There wasn’t a lot of time for a primary to be fair. A primary would have happened if Biden stuck to his word and stayed a one term candidate.
Progressives winning primaries through Ranked Choice Voting would be huge. At the least it would give us voters a real clue about how close we are to getting progressives in power instead of just the incumbents.
Luckily, the Democratic Party has recently supported the idea of using Ranked Choice Voting for primaries.
A new party can’t get off the ground if the entire voting system moved to Ranked Choice voting. Which can happen on a state by state basis and has already happened in Alaska and Maine.
And that’s why I’m not a Democrat.

Which the courts said was within their legal right, so you can absolutely expect them to do it again.
There were no primaries in 2024…

The Tea Party still had the backing of capitalists. If you try moving the Democrat party meaningfully left, you will not have that.
It’s currently working with recent events progressive primarying efforts, but not from actually getting centrist corporate Dems from shifting left.
That’s the fucking point.
