(62,325 posts)now. Reading their website several years ago, sent chills down my spine as they CALLED themselves Democrats when it was clear from their views clearly stated on their website, that they were far more aligned with the far right, except on the obligatory issues necessary to 'pass' as a Democrat. Issues I've noticed, they SHOUT about, something anyone who genuinely IS a democrat doesn't need to protest so loudly about. Iow, they use issues traditionally associated with the Dem Party as weapons mostly against the Left, despised by the Third Way btw, as much as by the Right.
It certainly isn't a secret that a decision was made a couple of decades ago to drag the Dem Party to the right on many issues, SS eg, unnecessary wars for profit, to name a few.
The question is now, what recourse do Democrats have to end the corporatization of the Dem Party? Questions a lot of people are asking.
