This is a system with predictable effects. Blaming individual voters and assuring the DNC they learned their lesson and will vote next time does not increase voter turnout.
Our only hope within the democratic party is to support progressives and demonstrate that they do not have a conceivable path to victory if they don’t do what the base wants. Every bluemaga who spent 2 years shutting down any criticism helped the DNC maintain the delusion that they could win without doing what the base wants.
