As someone who has been following politics since the 90s, do you really believe the Democratic party of today is to the right of the Democratic party of 1996? I just completely disagree with that. The Democratic party today has way more progressive voices than it did back then, and the average politics of the party has obviously moved left over that time.
Your complaint is that it’s not as far left as you want it to be, which is a completely different conversation.
And comparing today’s Democratic party to the Republican party of the 80s demonstrates a fundamental unawareness of history.

Democrats in 1996 believed black children were super soldiers incapable of feeling pain.
Anybody who says the Democrats have shifted rightward has one legitimate excuse for thinking so: they are 12.
Most people here seem to be kids, tbf
