So until they do progressive policies, they should not be voted for.

So you're saying we should shoot ourselves in the foot by allowing a fascist takeover of our government in order to teach the Dems a lesson that won't matter if fascists take over our government?

That's.....well that's certainly an opinion.

I am saying that the necessary steps forward were decided by the Democratic Party.

We have to clean our shit first before we handle the republicans. I would prefer to prevent harm first, but that is out of our hands now. Fascists have taken over the government. You want nothing to change with the democrats? Don’t expect change in the voting box. What was the democrats reaction to losing this election? ‘We should drop the defense of minorities, we should advocate power to the republicans, uncontested to show everyone how bad it is because they didn’t vote for us. We should not talk about Gaza. we should stop fighting against aggressive deportations.’(which they never did)

No their stance and actions after the election shows that the democrats need to be the first hurdle jumped. Once they are in order and we have a non fractured party THEN we drag the republicans into the light.
