prog vs dem, or we can unite to actually take on an external foe

This.

Started seeing progs refer to dems as "demoncrats" and now I legitimately can't tell them apart from MAGA online half the time.

You are the epitome of the suppressed class war you constantly criticize for being in favor of in-group fighting. At least try to remember who your real enemies are.

    And what about what middle America wants? The voters, you know, that we have to get? "Socialism" is a non-starter for people outside of NYC.

    Middle America has a lot of unmet needs, with a horrible health care system and food insecurity. Most will gladly embrace anything that may help.

    What many see as crazy politics is a desperate attempt to latch onto anything remotely promising.

    middle america wants the same things that leftists wants (eg healthcare, education, childcare, equitable living conditions, etc.).

    the word socialism itself is a non starter thanks to the propaganda against it; you only need to see how mamdani was attacked even in new york for it.
