Are we, the Democratic party out of touch?

No, it's the electorate's fault!

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago (14 children)

Nobody is arguing the DNC isn't out of touch.

however the electorate isn't much better. Cutting off their nose to spite their face.

Nice try on the strawman though, better than some.

What strawman? When is it appropriate to hold DNC leadership accountable for losing the election, again?

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The DNC will have its come to jesus moment and maybe come to the wrong conclusions again, but it's still patently obvious that a massive number of people will vote against their own interests regardless of the arguments anyone made.

Yeah it’s hard to vote in an informed manner with so many obstacles to education. I suspect this problem is about to get a whole lot worse unfortunately.

Why would they? They've just shown their complete inability to pivot an iota, for THREE elections. That's 12 years of nothing learned by the DNC, minimum.

Unless you consider that they don't care to win. Unless they benefit from losing equally, or more as losers. Does Biden or Harris look particularly pained by this outcome, at all? They look pleased as punch.
