As long as we have first-past-the-post voting, they have to work within the Dem party, rather than outside it. Trying to fully split into a 3rd party would split the non-fascist vote and make them both lose.
And I’ll reiterate the issue so many gloss over here: The two party system could still theoretically work. But it doesn’t work right now because more than one human being votes for the Republicans, a hateful entity that destroys everything and helps no one but the rich.
That is a choice, one I’ve never tolerated or understood. Even if America had more options, it wouldn’t cure voters that reject progressive candidates because they’re not hateful enough.

Yeah, unless we restructure our democracy to support multiple parties, the closest we can get is two parties that contain several distinct caucuses.
