Yeah, it's the politics within the politics that makes things so loving impenetrable, basically. It's not the democrats or the republicans or the national mood that dictates policy and who is really in power, it's the beltway, like a terrible formless monster, a gestalt consciousness, a lovely hive mind that consumes everyone that ventures inside of it When things like Pelosi getting elected speaker, or AOC's weird heel turn, or Obama forgetting about Guantanamo, etc, happen and it doesn't make any loving sense to any living human being, it's probably because somebody didn't want to feel awkward in the hallways or get left out of the lunch group, it's the same petty bullshit from every office building you've ever worked in on a scale that encompasses the national capitol and any time somebody says "political capital" what they really mean is "social clout". Democrats compromise with Republicans who vote "No" on their bills because they want the jocks to like them, or at least stop cancelling their print jobs and locking their paiges out of their office

The people in the beltway have some of the power (particularly the Pelosi-types) by virtue of running party money machines, but a lot of the big dollar spending that matters to individual candidates is coming from outside the beltway industry pressure and advertising groups. or b) because the Dems are so loving neolib brain poisoned that the "compromise with Republicans" bill that's a loving farce that will never go anywhere is actually a compromise with a third of their own party to even get the bill to the point of being poo poo on and then set on fire by Republicans in public. The pathetic state of the proposed bill is blamed on Republicans as a cover for the fact that the dems themselves are garbage. Or - also popular - someone demands "a bipartisan bill" because their brain poisoning isn't even neoliberalism it's just straight "the truth is in the middle we need to get back the good ol' days of the collegial congress" centrism. Anyway there are a lot of reasons why the dems are constantly own-goaling themselves

It's not the democrats or the republicans or the national mood that dictates policy and who is really in power, it's the beltway, like a terrible formless monster, a gestalt consciousness, a lovely hive mind that consumes everyone that ventures inside of it I mean, those things make perfect sense. Obama never actually cared about Guantanamo and most Democrats like Pelosi and are fine with her being Speaker. I'm sure that other pressures keep people at the margins in line (there's a good chance this is true for people like Omar or Tlaib), but broadly speaking most Democratic politicians are totally fine with what the Democratic Party does (and doesn't do) and flat-out oppose the things the left wants. Put another way, from the perspective of the left it doesn't really make sense to draw a distinction between the Democrats and Republicans to begin with. To whatever extent the two parties may differ, both are equally opposed to left-wing goals. Democrats being marginally better than Republicans doesn't mean they're somehow marginally more amenable to left-wing ideas. That's why I think it makes the most sense to just think of them as two different right-wing factions. So when I see people say "I don't understand why the Democrats did this," I think that's coming from the wrong perspective, because the Democrats are generally doing exactly what they want to do. To the extent that they voice left-ish views, it's out of a desire to appease (or outright deceive) a subset of their voting and activist base.

The only people at the federal level I can think of who really acknowledge this stuff are Omar and Tlaib. AOC absolutely doesn't, and I strongly doubt any other congressional Democrats do.
