    So you’re rejecting all political influence you would have in the Democratic party.

    And the problem is this isn’t reciprocal. Look at the NY Mayoral election for a recent example. Vote Blue No Matter Who and prioritizing the lesser evil is ONLY ever applied one way.

    There’s a great article from 2020 where the NY Times says the quiet part loud - several articles about how Democratic party insiders were “willing to risk party damage to stop Sanders”. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/27/us/politics/democratic-superdelegates.html. Reminder this was during an election they claimed was existential for the US. Like the one in 2024, where they pushed, without a real primary, a candidate who had never won a single delegate.

    All this would be one thing if the centrists with their stranglehold on the party actually won. But they don’t. The GOP is firmly in control of the US - and yet the same broken party leadership remains, precisely because your logic empowers them.

    You want to make accusations that I’m electing Trump? No. It’s your unquestioning support of Democratic failure that enabled today.

    But we don’t live in the might’ve world, we live in the world of what is.

    Yes, and the current world - with an unrestrained GOP bringing open fascism without resistance from the supposed opposition party - is exactly the product of the strategy you’re advocating continuing. That’s the issue. This didn’t come out of nowhere.
