The beginning step is convincing the poors to care more about "the economy" than their own lives.

They want the poor slaving away to keep raising corporate profits with a smile on their face.

It's why it's so concerning that Dems are doing it now too. They're literally the only thing standing between us and fascism, the problem is they won't stop jogging over to the fascists.

We need a party that actually fights the fascist, not just hang out on the other side of a velvet rope but still in the same club.

Gotta keep voting for progressives until it's liberals vs progressives in the national election. Then we might start seeing some meaningful change.

This all the way. Make it so the Republicans of today are never close to winning again and then you can actually foster some splits within the Democrats.

As it sits today, the Republicans have such. Great shot at winning that the Democrats can’t post a super left-leaning candidate otherwise they’d get handily beaten.

You are describing a one party state. Kind of optimistic to assume that if you manage to hand all of the power to one organization, with no real opposition, that it won't be corrupted (more than it already is).
