Nah, I disagree. People who focus on the issues get called socialists, and ten years ago, that would have been a big blow against your campaign. It’s good that people like socialism now, because it means people like Mamdani and El-Sayed don’t have to work as hard to be perceived as legitimate politicians. They can be out and proud about it and still win elections. This could be the seed of a leftward shift in society.
I’m an old guy, and after a lifetime of getting buried by all the bullshit that both parties have shoveled, I’m embracing it. It’s even worse for young people today. I didn’t come out of college with a lifetime of student debt as big as a mortgage, with earning potential barely above a living wage, IF you’re lucky.
Our current system is unsustainable, but societal collapse is part of the business model for trillionaires, who can then take over, and reconfigure the world to suit them.
El-Sayed is pro Palestine but is explicitly not a socialist no? He is a progressive but he is a capitalist.
I get your point though. We need to work to keep shifting the culture back our way so we keep gaining more room to make more aggressive and expansive arguments people will listen to.
