The issue was letting conservatives run the DNC under the label of “neoliberals”…
Like, there are fundamentally different ways a progressive and conservative think, to the point a brain scan can determine political leaning with an ~80% success rate after like five minutes of showing a human what to look for. Which is insanely impressive when you realize we rarely see 80% turnout in elections.
The neoliberals marketed themselves to Dem voters like we were conservatives, because that’s what they are and they lack the empathy to realize anyone’s different.
You can’t run a successful Dem campaign off fear, because if that appealed to Dem voters we’d be voting Republican already.
That’s why Obama did so well in 2008 off literally just saying “hope” and “change” over and over…
That’s all it fucking takes, and now that the neoliberals aren’t running the DNC, that’s what will come out of the primary naturally this time.
