Gavin Newsom surges in 2028 presidential primary poll

What political seat do you hold? I mean according to you, one has to run to have a political view.

It’s undeniable that it all unfolded the way it did because leadership wasn’t pleased with him

It was the fault of their idiotic diversity rules. And although I like Hogg's preferred candidates, it is also true that DNC members should not be pushing primary candidates.

and there is campaign finance reform (looking at Citizens United being overturned), it’s naive to believe progressives will ever have a shot.

So what you are saying is that Citizen's United is the reason progressives "don't have a shot". Do you know understand the chain of events that led us here? In 2000 (A) progressives voted for Ralph Nader, who (B) threw the election to George Bush, who (C.) appointed several archconservative Supreme Court justices, who (D) established Citizen's United.

So you rexample of Citizens United as being the thing that fucked us over is AN EXAMPLE OF PROGRESSIVES SHOOTING THEMSELVES IN THE FOOT.

You have a fundamental misunderstanding of what the DNC is and how it works...

If you weren't also insisting that you know how it works at the same time, I probably would have stuck around to explain it.

You're also ignorant of what their fundraising has been like and where it's coming from since the new chair.

Billionaire large money donations are virtually non-existent, and small donors has skyrocketed.

But again, if you were genuinely asking questions, I'd stick around to answer. Instead you're just insisting untrue things are reality and demanding I argue with you about it.

Very few people are going to invest the time required for you to understand this, when this is the way you go about it.

Pew Research data shows that Xers voted much more conservatively than the other demographics. Even more so than Baby Boomers.

The data shows how they voted; Zoomers and Millennials were both majorities for Harris.

I bring this up because there is data to back this. Gen Xers were more conservative, and since they vote at a larger scale than Millennials and Zoomers we’re much more likely to be pulled into more conservative politics for another decade or two at the least.

I believe it is a cultural thing and a money thing. Exposure to things like unleaded gasoline, microplastics, and misinformation/propaganda at a grand scale likely hasn’t helped.

Culturally more people have been raised to be progressive than they have been in the past.

Money doesn’t leave politics unless we vote in enough ethical leaders to change the laws. That can be more likely under a different voting system throughout the country.

The class struggle requires new generations being pulled into the cause, but if older generations vote more conservatively and have a higher percentage share of the votes then we won’t be able to vote in anything to address or tackle the class struggle for possibly another decade. The more we fail to pass positive change, the more burned out some people get from the process as well.

Organizing, unionizing, and trying to change the voting system to use an alternative voting system are our best bets at the moment I feel.

The war mongers are the neo-liberals on both sides, since they usually have some huge benefits from their districts and from arms sales.
