Progressives aim to reinstate equilibrium to state’s lopsided politics that DeSantis has, in the eyes of some, dragged into fascism

You have a point.
I suspect going on about gerrymandering too much, and inadvertently convincing some democratic voters they can’t win because of gerry mandering, isn’t helping either.
It becomes a crutch… “oh, why should we bother to go vote, when we know we will lose?” or worse yet, it undermines democracy in general by making people think the system is totally rigged. Those are the kinds of arguments that clowns like Trump use. I am not saying that everything is fair. Far from it, but apathy is one of the biggest weapons that fascist use to make people not want to go vote. Voter turnout is already pitiful - we can’t afford to lose more voters.
Democrats also chase after middle class votes when they should be in every fast food joint, retail chain, and other shitty minimum wage job, advocating for inflation-tied minimum wage increases, strengthened protections for organized labor, etc.
(they don’t do this because they are a centrist party that doesn’t want the US to have the quality of life enjoyed by those in Western Europe)
