Like what are the practical steps to take? Stuff like universal healthcare isn't even a controversial policy. How do we form a voting bloc around that?

Bernie Sanders has pointed out that he was happy with Biden passing the progressive legislation coming out of Congress. If you want something like universal healthcare, it is going to take a Democrat controlled Congress with enough margins to allow for minor dissent from some Senators.

Time to start becoming more involved in congressional elections.
