Or will they just keep being slaves to the right wing democratic party.

The only thing fucking over "liberal" voters more than the GOP is their refusal to vote out the old guard.

What actual leftists should they vote for? The United States doesnt have much of a leftist tradition. Progressives are as close as were going to get.

Can you point me to some examples of leftist governments currently in power that you consider successful examples of what this hypothetical future US would look like?

Liberals historically opt to align themselves with anyone else, even fascists, before they will form any sort of coalition with leftists. This is because at their core liberals are always capitalists, and to be leftist is to be fundamentally anti-capitalist.

The US doesn't have an actual leftist party. Or at least, none that can actually win elections.

For the foreseeable future, the Dems are the best we can get.

This country is rapidly sinking back into center-right as progressive ideals and viewpoints are becoming poison to the typical voter under the banners of wokeness, CTR and whatever slogan that'll come in the next 2 years.

It's not safe to vote for leftists while the GQP remains as popular as it is. You have to vote for the non GQP candidate with the best chance of winning.

Some will, some won't. And their children might.

Look at the repubs. They solidify around their repubs. And now look, their ball is rolling even further right.

You don't get what you want by splitting your vote. The voting system has too many flaws, such as the spoiler effect.

Accelerationism is self defeating.

Norway, Finland, Denmark, Sweden, etc.

Republicans and Democrats are total failures and should be removed from office ASAP and replaced by those with actual left leaning views.

Germany, where the center right christian party that held majority power in their parliament for most of the last 100 years?
Norway, which was recently run by a conservative party and is currently split between center-left and center-right parties?
That's what you call a successful leftist government? What about those governments are leftist?

You have any better arguments than "But there used to be Nazis there!!!"

I literally made no mention to Nazis. I'm talking about the CDU (Angela Merkel's party) being the ruling party for most of the last 100 years. Where the fuck did you get "but nazis" out of my last post?

I asked for an example of a successful nation run by leftists and you gave me Germany, where the center-right Christian Democrat Union has mostly run things and Norway, where the parties are pretty evenly split between center-left and center-right.

Why did you put "liberal" in quotes? Do you think leftists are the "true" liberals? Do you know what liberal means?
