    I’d say democratic socialism falls under the general progressive/liberal banner in American political parlance, although admittedly that’s just because our system is designed to funnel most every view into one of the two buckets.

      The only democratic socialist in mainstream politics I still listen to is Bernie Sanders. Most every other demsoc doesn’t have anything to say that I find all that worth listening to. There are some demsocs in the media or online who I still listen to, but they are relatively few and far between.

        And there’s not going to be until people who want to vote more left actually vote to elect the leftmost candidate they can.
