MODERATORS
Fascists are never going to vote democrat.
Triangulation doesn't work. When you triangulate yourself to be 1 inch left of hitler, the people who want hitler vote hitler, and the people who wanted not-hitler don't vote. When you get elected for being not-hitler, and proceed to facilitate genocide, people who wanted not-hitler don't vote
You learned nothing in 2020.
You learned nothing when Obama lost the house and senate in 2010 after not pulling out of Iraq+afghanistan, ending the war on drugs, and doing other stuff that voters expected of him, instead tryed to reach out to moderate republicans.
You learned nothing when Kerry lost after campaigning on doing the wars more competently in 2004.
And you will learn nothing in November.
Pressure Biden to cut off all aid to Israel and sanction them until they give equal civil rights to Palestinians and return their homes, use military hospitals to provide healthcare to women, send in the military to destroy the child-drowning fence on the rio, etc.
Doing good things instead of bad things is only way Biden can hope to be reelected (no, the republicans or the parliamentarian or the SCOTUS or Joe Manchin or civility and norms aren't an excuse).
