Summary
Democrats must reclaim their identity as the party of the working class to regain electoral strength.
Despite pro-labor policies under Biden, working-class voters feel disconnected, seeing Democrats as defenders of a failing system.
The party’s decline traces back to NAFTA and neoliberal economic policies that favored corporations over workers.
A generational effort to prioritize labor rights, fair wages, and economic security while addressing working-class frustrations are needed.
Without serious reform, Democrats will continue losing ground to populist alternatives.
It’s hilarious all the people pissing into the wind of pro-union, pro-worker, pro-regulation, pro-environmental policies by voting Republican and acting like Democrats don’t do all of these things lmfao.
Hell look at every comment in here so far. It doesn’t matter how well Democrat policies, how much they publish the information, how many people share it on social media, Fox news and other posters still parrot bullshit that gets pedaled far and wide. Their propaganda machine is far better at muting any effort they attempt to show it, let alone without holding the areas of government they need to enact serious legislative change.
The democrats pretend to want to do those things but somehow those pesky republicans keep stopping them. Now that it’s their turn as the opposition, though, oh well, nothing they can do. It’s the republicans’ government now.
The Democrats don’t listen to the workers or if they do, they act pretty hostile to what they say.
Guns for instance.
Yeah, it looks like brigading. It’s the same taking points repeated in posts like these that are reposted across multiple instances.
