No, friend.
Refusing to vote is ALWAYS stupid.

There is no entity that you can "teach" via costly punishment like they are an individual player.
"The Democrats" is not an individual with a memory, it is a loose collection of changing participants and the individual players will focus on their constituency and the groups with highest turnout rates and numbers.

We are in this current cataclysm because people on the left ceded their vote

@screwturn@mastodon.social @pjw@social.coop @carl@chaos.social @benroyce@mastodon.social @mmalc@mastodon.social @HamonWry@mastodon.world @Strandjunker@mstdn.social The way to reform the Ds is the same way Trump reformed the Rs in the opposite direction.

Attack the entire institution, discredit everyone, and promise ground up reform. Except in this case you are promising to do something about monopolies, health care, etc. and take on the various Left-populist causes.

The Ds are wide open for a mirror image of the attack Trump used on the Rs.

Except, using Trump's tactics means setting up one person whose whims we trust and imbue them with total authority. So. No. It has to be different than what he did.
