Political backing is growing. At the beginning of this year, hardly anyone knew what a Democratic Socialist was, and now a third of Democrats identify that way, a third of Democrats are scared shitless, and the other third is clueless.
The movement toward Leftist Activism is growing so quickly, that both sides are scared of it. The 2026 Progressives are where the Tea Party was in 2010, and the Tea Party turned into MAGA, and took over. Now the Dems have the opportunity to do the same thing, except use their power for good.
Keeping the new ruling Dems on the right track to help the workers, and the not the Sociopathic Oligarchs, will be the mission after that.
