I don’t know on which community we currently are, but this is the most accurate depiction of what’s actually going on. Democrats serve the corporate elite and don’t really bother turning it left.
Intersting, I do not remember any means of production being turned over to the workers? I dont remember a law passed to remove the scehdual F capabilities, I do not remember stuffing the supreme court in retaliation for Roe being overturned. Heck I do not even remember stufing the Postal board of governors so full that it would fire DeJoy and ensure a reasonable PMG for over a decade… Please enlighten me, what left wing actions must I look at
You aren’t wrong in that the democrats prefer the status quo but it’s far from both sides being the same. If we have to pick a side, and if we are still pro democracy, we do, there is only one correct choice.
Now if we can convince that side to then use the victory to change the rules, then so be it. For example, Ranked choice voting would be great, but let’s get more states to use it before expecting the highest office in the land to adopt it.

What if Democrats not only don’t change the rules to improve the democratic process, but they also fail to even talk about significantly improving their constituents’ lives? What if they also can’t be bothered to take climate change seriously? And what if – after all that – they do genocide?
I used to think like you do, but at some point in the last decade or two Democrats stopped being a worthwhile option. The party will have to be either radically changed or smashed in order for any major progress to happen anytime soon.
This has to be the most brain dead community on Lemmy, still pulling this “Both sides” bullshit

Stop with this braindead serve the elites meme. Dems last admin passed tons of left wing legislation that benefited everyone.

Western “democracy” in a nutshell. Catch-22 could only dream of such absurdity.
Look at this guy, believing there’s actually 2 sides
