man im so disillusioned with the current political climate i completely forgot there was an election coming up. Oof! Yeah I'm thinking it'll be a big blue wave judging off the poll numbers, not much of a mystery how everything will settle out. IDK I just really don't care. It won't make any difference whether congress becomes blue, red, or purple. Whatever the ultrapowerful want, that's what we'll get.

Here's maybe a good news for you: Since the ascent of Mamdani the DSA has had a steep rise in memberships and has broken all historical records of leftist parties in the US, and the number of office-holders with DSA membership is also expected to rise quite a bit during these midterms, meaning the older Democrats can't ignore them anymore and need to work with them to create policies - meaning the power and especially the influence of corporations in the US Government will be waning, at least somewhat.
