"Dems must be more moderate to win over voters."

Okay lets go with that theory:
•A living wage is moderate—a poverty wage is extreme.
•Healthcare for all is moderate—denying care is extreme.
•Climate justice is moderate—denying climate science is extreme.

Reject GOP Framing. Vote GOP Out.

@QasimRashid Even outside of that, basically every democrat policy is hugely popular among voters, if people voted according to policy instead of political tribe, democrats would get something like 80%+ of the votes. Policy isn't the problem, messaging is.

@QasimRashid they call us communists even though we aren't pushing for things like the abolition of the free market or money

SometimesIGetBored,

@QasimRashid this isn't GOP framing. It's DNC framing.

The DNC says it needs to be more to the right to win votes. It's a lie. They say that because their real base is corporate donors.

@QasimRashid Dems are already moderate. If they get "more moderate" then they are actually just getting conservative.

And if that happens, then I won't be voting for them, either.

@QasimRashid

The United States has two parties, a Center-Right party, and an Ultra-Right-Wing fascist party.

The GOP had dragged the country so far right it's corrupted the political heart of the country.

@QasimRashid “moderate” is now left of where Dems are at, not right. Only crazy is to the right, now.

@QasimRashid Never let the other side set the terms of the debate, correct them every time, refuse to use them. Because if you do they have already won.

@QasimRashid Today's Democrats are much closer to the Republicans of the 1980s than today's Republicans are. That's how far the US has shifted to the right in the past few decades. Democrats already are moderate by today's standards.

quietbonnie,

@QasimRashid Plus, Republicans already aren't voting Democratic anyway. It's not like going left causes Dems to lose votes.

@QasimRashid make it about democracy, a living wage, Medicare and social security. And show Americans how extremist they are and call out their MAGA bs head-on. https://youtu.be/NfVQcMM1fK4?si=NoPl9MA9vhD5AzWG
