Uh, if 95% of the voters are voting fascism one way or the other, it’s a start. I think you wildly underestimate electoral inertia. Don’t get me wrong, I wish you were right, but the evidence seems to suggest otherwise. Unless you’ve got an actionable plan to sway, like, 70 million people, maybe start with nudging the scales from fascism full-flavor to fascism lite and go from there.
Then vote in the primaries, absolutely do that and encourage everyone you know to do the same. And if a shitlib wins the primary, vote damage reduction.

Assumes facts not in evidence. Polls show progressive ideas are incredibly popular. Liberal Democratic politicians aren’t.
The road to progress isn’t through Gavin Newsom.

Mamdani.
He won the primary (in a Democratic stronghold). Awesome, let’s keep that up where we can. Vote in your primaries.
But if your district’s Mamdani is a long shot third party, maybe make sure the shitlib beats the fascist until that long shot has widespread support.
