You're saying it doesn't make sense that we use people closest to the problem to address the problem?
They're not saviors, they can't be the only ones doing it. But to not use them would be idiotic.
No, I'm very much saying the same thing. Presumably, folks in the Democratic Party have some amount of expertise in doing public talking and organizing, so involving them is great. But many of these pleas just sound like folks expect Democratic Party politicians to wave their wand and make it all good again, even though there is no wand, they don't have some special magic to make the politics happen. Every single person can just as well go out and organize. Every single person who's complaining about the Democratic Party not doing enough, should be doing things themselves.
Of course, I cannot know, if the person who made this post doesn't actually also do that. In principle, this post is rallying the Democratic Party.
