Corporatization of the Dem party isn't just a function of party operatives; it's just as much a function of the corporate media that partners with them. A political-media-industrial complex. But we shouldn't just abandon the party; I think we should hang around to be inconvenient

You can't be a revolutionary in a counter revolution party...

The Democratic Party became broken with the Clinton Administration. That was when they replaced the old guard Republican Party of the Bakers and Rockefellers. The Republicans simply continued their far right descent that began with the Reagan Administration. Both are hopeless.

Seriously though! The last two primaries have really led me to question my affiliation with the Democrats. It feels like being caught between a rock and a hard place. What are we gonna do?
Replying to @marwilliamson
We need to this year! Then, more parties and ranked choice voting.

Exactly. #DemExit is exactly what they want. To do so is fulfilling their deepest desires.

Problem is, we need to be more than "inconvenient." We need to engage in civil disobedience that will force the elite to act, because ecological collapse is not something we have time to wait on.

I'm tired of hanging around the party. I'm done with them.
