Really though, beyond the Dems doing something legislatively, could you imagine if the party actually utilized it’s network for direct action campaigns. Not that their donors or upper middle class members would be copacetic to any actual economic disruption. I mean christ, the Senate leader doesn’t even want to let the Republicans shut down the government while they’re busy dismantling it. Their current strategy is to appeal by saying they can bring back business as usual. Unfortunately they don’t seem to understand that appearing ineffectual turns centrists off even more than appearing radical does.

Does it though?
Look at how much .world or reddit downvote and deride posts critical of Democrat behavior since the beginning on the election and the only takeaway you can get is that they’re in onboard with it no matter how much they hate it simply because Republicans are worse.

Agreed, but why should we still presume that upvotes reflect genuine user opinion as opposed to astroturfing?
It seems that lib-aligned groups use Reddit to manufacture approval for their clients. Given this, why should we view Reddit as a credible window into popular opinion? The entire site is an infomercial at this point
Ok, but that’s a select group of people who choose to spend their free time typing about politics online. If you look at the actual election results, it would appear to back up the claim you’re quoting.
Analyzing your query: It is indeed challenging to accurately verify if responses on Reddit originate from authentic human participants or sophisticated algorithmic entities. Therefore, the reliability of Reddit discourse as representative data remains uncertain.
In those conversations it’s because each downvote is closely associated with a reply though there are ways to see I don’t actually use them. And I was mostly joking.
Context to getting downvoted for demonstrating the Democrats ineffectualism to pugjesus? You’d know if you knew. He gets mad and says that everyone who didn’t have solidarity for him as a disabled person wanted to kill him. While he had no solidarity for Palestinians. We came from kbin together so me, him, and the late downpunxx had fun times. Sorry if I’m not entirely coherent, I’m drunk posting for the first time in over a year.

They’re on board because the party moved to the right for them.
I mean I usually post in world and not ml and I don’t get generally get downvoted for these opinions by anybody but pugjesus.
How do you know they’re down voting you?
I’m not exactly sure, but from what I’ve heard you make your own instance and you can see who voted how with admin tools.
You can also do so from some mbin instances. It was a default feature for all users on kbin.
i’m aware of this and it only makes me wonder at why the admins seemingly don’t bother to keep to track.
Some do. You see some communities ban users that do nothing but downvote the communities posts from the all feed instead of just blocking them.

Oh no.
Context?

Wait… downpunxx died?
No his bans just finally stuck.
Its all good. Just trying to figure out the lemmy “lore” as it were.
I’m under the impression that he has fans on hexbear, but I don’t get hexbear over here on world.
Edit: oh I’m being cryptically sarcastic, I mean they really don’t seem to like him. Overall it doesn’t bother me.
.world and hexbear have never been federated, they probably don’t know he exists.
