Vote for the change you want to see.

The Republican party got remade because trumpists showed up and outvoted the party elites. No reason it can't happen for the Left except for laziness and apathy.

If all the progressives furious about the state of affairs now had shown up for Sanders in 2016, I doubt we'd be in this hellish timeline. Sadly, he needed the young progressive vote to show up.

AOC has entered the chat.

The guy she unseated in the primary was along term incumbent with lots of connections to the NYC establishment.

If the DNC was fully filled with a bunch of AOC types, we'd be leagues ahead on so many things this country is fucking up.

Granted, that is in part dependent on a country that would accept an AOC style DNC.

Look at what FDR actually did back in the day. If we had a CCC today they'd be working on climate change and high speed rail.
