That’s because blue moderates are far more highly palatable to the majority of Americans than hard leftists. The hard thing to confront is that despite how it feels on Lemmy you guys aren’t a voting bloc worth pursuing.
Fair point, but I’d still wager more misguided leftists protest voted or stayed home because of Harris than moderates who would have done the same for Sanders or did for Obama.

The moderate Dem voters would have still turned out for Sanders in the general. Fuck this timeline and fuck the defenders of those who put us on it.
Really?
So the reason they tried to start a national movement to vote Republican when it was Obama…
That wasn’t the progressive policy he was campaigning on?
I thought that’s what it was, if not, why do you think a bunch of boomer “moderates” just could stomach voting for Barrak Obama?
What charestic besides policy stances do you think made them go Republican, assuming you’re right they’d have voted for Bernie.
The truth is, if Bernie was the candidate we wouldn’t have needed them, just like we didn’t need them for Obama
