I'm still deciding what I'm going to do, but will the democratic party not just keep moving towards the right if they know they can get our votes as long as they're just to the left of the republicans? Are we just cooked no matter what we do?
The US has a long way ahead if it wants to make its democracy functional again. They're proud of their old democracy, but there's nothing to be proud of when clearly it needs serious reforms to prevent fundamental flaws like the one you mentioned.
Direct action, community work, and trying to make people more radically democratic helps.
