The DNC respects it’s base. You just probably think more of the base are more people in it moving left than there really are. Reddit users, and now here, seem to exist in such a closed echo chamber they think their highly minority point of view is actually popular outside of their circles. It’s not. Most people on the left are still moderate, which is well represented by the party today. There are fringe progressives that exist in the party and get about as much represntation as they should.

All USAns need to familiarize themselves with the concept of an Overton Window, and really give theirs a very thorough examination.
