Dems don't give a shit about the political process. They don't believe in it anymore, if they ever did.

for liberals political power flows from the ballot box, so any faith is entirely misplaced. having misidentified the causal mechanism of political change, their only option is to become the cult you describe, engaging in empty rituals with the intent of effecting political change but without any real ability to do so. liberal electoralism based on this faulty premise becomes as useless as liberal economics and its rejection of the labor theory of value. what's left but table-turning?
