The best thing that Democrats can do is come up with a popular governing vision and then storm back in the 2026 midterms.
Personally I would think this would have to compromise on immigration and the worst culture war excesses of the left, while emphasizing support for the working class and most importantly good governance.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why don't states in the US come up with their own health insurance program? So people can pay into it prolly less then what they pay now and the state put the money in a bank and use the interest for
63·9 months agoVermont tried for a version of universal healthcare about 10 years ago, and they decided the cost was too high.
Every state has a program for poor people that’s in part funded by Federal tax dollars.
You also have to address the free rider problem by vesting benefits in.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•GoneWild was once about people feeling wild and posting pictures of it. Now it's just OnlyFans sale
514·9 months agoThis is completely incoherent. An “industry” does not have the ability to ruin people’s free expression.
Anyone who wants to create something for other people, without asking for anything in return, is still free to do so. And I assume they are (at least, they are in niche communities - I don’t know of a gonewild equivalent but I know of people who make games for fun and they’re not hard to find, either).
It’s sad that so many people have taken a cheap payout in the most crass possible way, but all that means is that you need to look harder for the content you want.

103·9 months agoThis binary view is neat and tidy but wrong. There are a lot of enthusiasts for whom a Tesla is still a desirable car both for capabilities as well as status. I would not be surprised to see its sales keep dropping, but reports of its death are all gonna be premature.
As far as a used Tesla, once we agree that a market for Teslas still exists, then that’s all dependent on the price.
