Right.. but you also need progressives to run in primaries. Voter turnout is a huge part but we need to keep pushing out the establishment with more progressive candidates. Even with low voter turnout DSA backed candidates won about 54% of their races. That's huge. However, 91% of Democratic primary elections in 2024 didn't have a DSA backed candidate at all. You're making a mountain out of a molehill.

Everyone keeps making the same mistake. I'm not defending non-voters. I've been saying that the fix is to ensure we have people to vote for that overcome the cynicism and perfectionism. "Vote blue no matter who" is Liberal propaganda that keeps them in power.

Yeah. I think a great many of the missing voters would rather let a conservative win than vote for a progressive candidate.

Right, but Mamdani was on the ballot. The other part of the equation is having someone worth voting for. Non-voters show up in droves when the options aren't shitty and less shitty.

I don't think the finger wagging is really all that helpful.

Right. But mamdani was a choice.

I think perfection is unattainable but we should have candidates that are worthwhile; but voting for the lesser evil and the candidate "most likely to win" are also footguns. That's why it's important to have candidates that are worth voting for.

if the end of that scale keeps getting shittier and your options are super shitty or less shitty then every time you vote for less shitty things still get shittier, just slower. It's a failing play. The only solution is to have a choice that isn't shitty at all.
