The DNC is only keeping the far-right at bay, instead of actually stomping it dead for good.

Democrats do actively pass progressive reform, so who is really being duped? You who lets emotions and propaganda control your political outlook, or people who actually attempt to fight back by electing Democrats?
The biggest threat the progressive polices is the lefts inability to recognize their being played, not by the Democratic Party but by the media who baits them into blaming the party for things it cannot control.
The easiest mark is the one who thinks themselves too smart to be a mark.
You guys can't be serious. When the Democratic Party throws up their hands and says "it's out of our control" instead of actually fighting for progressive reform, you actually believe them? After everything we've seen? What will it actually take for you to realize the Democrats aren't fighting for us?
Either you're part of the party or you're not. It sounds like you are not. Good luck with that.
There are many powerful people that do not want the progressive agenda to succeed and they are more than happy to play us against each other.
They are already in the head of anyone they believes this is the democratic leadership and it's hard to accept anyone who refuses to acknowledge that on any level is truly of a progressive mindset.
The right accuses the Democrats of being radical left socialists, and the Democratic leadership responds by moving to the right. The powerful people you refer to - who do not want the progressive agenda to succeed - are the democratic leadership themselves. They work in tandem with those on the right to sabotage the efforts of progressives to gain power in the Democratic Party.
So yeah, I'm not part of the party, not by my own choice but because the party doesn't want me. If you are truly of a progressive mindset it doesn't want you either, but honestly it seems they've successfully tamed the progressivism within you.
