#VoteBlue is what you do in November, when the choice might be down to some stale corporate Democrat versus some Republican fascist.
> Because it won't do much if those elected Democrats are not afraid of the wrath of the voters each and every time they give in to Trump and the other oligarchs.
This is utterly wrong. 2021-2024 we didn't have this shit, and a bunch of corp Dems being in control is why. That made a fucking difference.
This reminds me of Hamilton Nolan’s “Enemies and Cowards” political framing:

Corpo Democrats do not prevent fascism, they only delay it. I remember how #DefundThePolice was called for, yet Democrats still expanded police forces, including ICE.

Delay matters. People should vote blue every November. Do you dispute that?
I do not.
But real change must come in the Primaries. Otherwise the USA will simply continue to alternate between "slow-walking fascism" and "speed-running fascism".
Excellent! Do you know how many people there are spouting off against "Vote Blue", didn't vote for Kamala Harris over Trump because "purity", and are still defending that decision? And your slamming "Vote Blue" reinforces their self-sabotaging ideas.
I agree primaries are the strongest place to get better Dems. Plus people need to keep after their elected officials during their terms. ...
