I don’t think there is any level of shortage in America of people who are disaffected with the Democrats. I think mostly what they need is something to vote for, and a realistic organization that can give it to them.
Aren't those kind of the same thing? Like, wouldn't we see some realistic organization that they can vote for, manifesting out of that level of people being disaffected?
Maybe that's true, it seems right anyway.
I just don't think that'll happen all on its own for a variety of reasons, I think a lot of people have to decide they're upset enough to do something all at the same time.
More people than I think is reasonable are comfortable with politics as something like a performance you make on social media and then pick the least terrible flavor on election day, and idk how else to push those people into the real world of organizing without making it too uncomfortable to hide behind that performance.
