Yes, exactly. Dems see the real threat as primaries for sure, and they just don’t have the infrastructure to control the nominations at the local level or even with state reps in redder states like they did with the 2016 or 2020 presidential primaries.

I dunno. They had the infrastructure to make sure Henry Cuellar beat Jessica Cisneros.
I should’ve specified, by state rep I meant in the state’s house of representatives, those can often have democrats that are more radical like the Tennessee Three (Go Gloria), and the NY State House DSA members.
They’re much more able to target progressives/socialists in the federal house, especially if they haven’t built up as much support from residents of the state before going federal like Gloria Johnson (or hopefully soon the other two members of the TN 3).
It’s that’s how you feel then that’s your choice. Republicans fully plan to attack the system entirely in their favor despite not being the popular party and the Democratic party is starting to recognize the need to appeal to younger voters. Just don’t abstain from voting entirely.
Or participate in primaries and local elections. Most of the problems come from how stacked the system already is.

“Your party is supporting genocide, but now it’s your fault for not being more active at the local level.”

God almighty, the passive aggression is worse than the usual overt condescension.
