This didn't answer my question, it's just a copy-pasted list. None of it is sourced either, it's the gish-gallop tactic.

None of that answered my question, lmao. You just copy-pasted a pre-existing list.

The party is a filter, the higher you are allowed to go the more you have to serve the interests of the donors. The DNC cannot change as long as we remain a Dictatorship of the Bourgeoisie, there's no mechanism for it.

The way forward is to not goose-step with either genocidal party that represents the US Empire, but to organize outside it, like joining PSL or FRSO.

I do keep up, mind offering an example? Harris is campaigning to the right of Trump in 2016 when it comes to immigration, as an example. I'm not a plant, nor am I ignorant, I'm just a Leftist.

Already happening under the Democrats. The DNC isn't protecting anyone at the Federal level. It's usually lower level candidates that are doing more for marginalized groups because they are closer to their constituents.

Nope. Political parties often have outward facing messages for their voters, but their actual policy is driven by their donors.

To be fair, the original comment seems to come from there anyways, it just looks like OP is trying to signal-boost and stir up drama.

That's a fair interpretation, but it's also worth noting that Materialism in its Dialectical form was very new, ie created by Marx. There was a ton of misunderstanding surrounding his theories (which remains today).

Nah, I'm just a Communist, I've read a good deal of Marx and the gang.

Those are voters, not the parties. I am obviously referring to the parties, unless you think parties magically form themselves around the policies wished by their voters.

This is my original account, I do have a Hexbear alt as well, yes. If I was trying to hide that, I would use a different username. That doesn't mean that this thread isn't violating community rules.

That would be more than you've done so far, I'll give you that.
