Remember, the situation is dire enough that leftists need to abandon everything they believe in and throw their enthusiastic support behind genocidal monsters, but not so dire that the Democrats need to actually make an effort to attract voters
Of course. Our precious political class has delicate sensibilities and nedds time for self-care.
Oh and Dem voters, no need to join organizations or take direct action. Just sit around being a little stressed out and blaming everyone else is plenty. You did your part! If you must do something, go to a one-off police escorted protest with no feasible demands or threats to do anything that would ever exert pressure.
“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”
“it’s not the candidates job to convince people to vote for them” is a wild take.
When it comes to the left, which now has the bar set at, “does not tolerare genocide”, the Democrats cannot fail, they can only be failed.
You’re welcome for the civics lesson, citizen. Don’t forget to buy war bonds!

And make sure those protests don’t mention Israel! That would be anti-Semitic terrorism
It’s also a wild take that nonvoters aren’t responsible for this fascist takeover. As if you needed more convincing somehow.
Lol. Who is responsible for the fascist takeover? The fascists?
No, the non voters
Both honestly.
Everyone but the infallible Democrats
