I really wish we had a unified left because there are enough of us to make a serious push to take over the party, but we're too interested in bickering amongst ourselves
Problem is that leftists like money, too, and aren't afraid to exploit others in order to get it.
We 100% don't agree on everything, and I don't know how unified we can be given the number of diverse interests under the umbrella. Feminists don't have any natural overlap with folks who want to eliminate cars or with atheists. The only unifying goal that makes proponents allies is opposing conservatives.
You've got black folks who are going to live their entire lives oppressed by systemic racism being told to just go along with getting rights excruciatingly slowly and trust their grandkids will have it great.
I'm afraid as much sense as your point makes, it isn't realistic.
No theres not. This is the effect of the lemmy echo chamber. America is A LOT more conservative than ppl here like to admit. The actual left of the Democratic party are ppl like Bernie and AOC and they're definitely not celebrated inside the DNC
That's because three Democratic party is a coalition of liberals and conservatives
Surprised not to see some self-unaware someone arguing that this position is somehow too far to the right or something
