LIf they run more progressive candidates, they’ll lose more voters. Because the left has just proven in the most disastrous election in anyone’s lifetime that they can not be swayed to vote Democrat no matter how dire the circumstances - in fact, the more dire, the more they dig in that they will not not help republiQans destroy everything.

Name one fucking democrat who has run for president in the last three elections what was not a fascist, and I’ll show you a democrat that got the progressive vote. Who are you going to pick? Kamala The Cop, who laughed on TV about throwing mother in jail for smoking pot while she was doing it at home? Maybe one of the DNC members who was laughing at pro-Palestine protesters?

Stop being fucking nazi scum, that’ll get you a ton of votes.

And your take is if they want to run someone more progressive than Kamala those voters will vote Democrat again?

No, my take is that they stop trying to appeal to the fascists in their party and start adopting populist policies. Which, as the name implies, are popular. Things like universal healthcare and a bump to the minimum wage.

The democrats lost the election because their conservative members fled to the republicans. They’ll lose the next election too if they continue trying to appeal to republicans. Bitch about it all they want, nobody is responsible for that except the party and their stubborn refusal to be anything more than “republicans, but sometimes with gays”.

Actually, the NYT published the results of an investigation last week, and it showed that in the states that track voter registration by party affiliation, democrats lost 2m voters and republicans gained 2.4m. taking into account the states that don’t track voter registration by party, that means the 6m people who didn’t vote for Kamala last fall were democrats that switched party because there isn’t a real difference between the two parties on most things, and they wanted something new.

So maybe if the democrats want to win, they can stop jumping ship and voting for fascists.

I just checked, the credentials are still good.

why not copyparty?

I had to explain what a CD was to my kids the other day because I saw a CD-ROM mirror and decided to get one. We didn’t even cover what “burning” one was.

Why use Caddy at all then? Tailscale would work just as well, with the added bonus that you could access it outside your LAN without exposing it to the clearnet.
