In this time, when it is clear that Biden will not get in without the Left, and the mentality is "anyone but trump" it is the perfect time to rally behind a revolutionary third party. A Greens/DSA/BernieBro alliance could seriously hold the election hostage. If this is not the time, when the fuck will it ever be? obviously this is not enough, but you can "hold them accountable" way more than you could hold joe fuckin biden and the democrats

    'hold the election hostage' absolutely not. American turnout is like sub-30%, and of that 30% how many of them are committed and organized leftists? There are many tangible goals out there for people to organize and pursue, but trying to bully the DNC is absolutely lowest priority dead-end electoral nonsense.

      as far as I'm concerned; the DNC is holding the election hostage, and I do not negotiate with terrorists.

      unless they're very pretty and kinda naked. and then, I mean, practical terms I still don't, but I wouldn't mind.

      its over 50% turnout of those who can vote, fym - very few are enthusiastic about biden among democrats - he didnt exactly do well until everyone was forced to drop out now did he?
