God, that "I'll wait" there at the end is darling.
The Republicans haven't had any kind of supermajority in forever and are successfully forcing their unpopular agenda down our throats. Your retort is that the people are just supposed to continually gift the Dems supermajorities in the hope that maybe they'll try to do something one day? Is that how voting populations work?
The only ignorance that needs to be fixed is within the Democratic Party power structure. Gerrymandering is a political issue the Democrats should be working to fix on a federal level and it's not an issue the people give a shit about; that's procedural shit.
That's not what people want. That doesn't get them out of their seats. And if a politician can't get people out of their seats that is HIS fault, not the people's. The Democratic Party's inability to win elections while having a wildly popular platform is an indictment of THEM, not the voters.
- Find out what the people want. (it's not gerrymandering reform, it's not identity politics, it's not unemployment stats, it's not smugness, it's not Twitter owns, it's not TV outrage about some ugly broad in a white fur coat)
- Promise to give the people what they want.
- Openly and viciously fight to get them what they want, screaming bloody murder at everyone (friend or foe) who stands in the way.
And if you have to do procedural shit like SC court stacking or gerrymandering reform or voting procedure reform in the process, you just do that. That nerd shit is not why anyone cares about Dems even though the Dems themselves are soulless nerds.
