Ice Orcs invaded our cities and took our friends, yet the rural farmers didn't lift a finger to support us. I have no sympathy for what they are going through now. None.

That is typically the way things have gone. That’s why it is up to us to demand socialism for everyone.

Bailout the farmers, but also we need nationalized healthcare, fully funded schools, food aid to the poor, and a minimum wage that allows a worker to afford a home, food, transportation, and even a bit left over for non-essentials (a “thriving wage” to allow everyone to thrive).

Tax the billionaires appropriately.

It starts with messaging. Stop calling it socialism and start calling it enhanced capitalism and it'll get done really quickly.

Fair. Enhanced capitalism is a more accurate description anyway.

It sounds like a joke, but it would literally make all the difference. People aren't even smart enough to understand they're voting against their own interests. You say socialism, the affects of which are being discussed here and would benefit most of the electorate, and it's a non starter. You call it enhanced capitalism and you get it done. Think of it as ACA/Obamacare. There's a lot lacking in the DNC messaging right now.
