MODERATORS
To add to UnderpantsWeevil's response there is also a pent up demand for something better but that better is going to take time and negotiations (since DSA will not have majority control). My worry is that people will get frustrated that things are not changing fast enough and vote out the progressives.
The necessary changes cannot go through reform, though. Even if the DSA wins, those gains will be temporary at best. Socialism is still necessary, and still requires smashing the capitalist state apparatus and replacing it.
