It hasn't occurred to them that pandering to the wishes of Islamic or TQ+ anarcho-communists may not be very good for their party.
If the Joker faction knocks off the Penguin faction in local blue sh*tholes, who cares? The next generation needs a new lesson in why communism sucks anyways and what better place to kick those tires that in easily avoidable blue sh*tholes? It's the perfect place for that to occur.
And besides... be it Joker faction or Penguin faction, they all vote identically at the national level anyways. None are reasonable. So, I don't mind seeing the Joker faction take over that party, both for the comedy effect of leftoid failure and because they are utterly toxic to the Dem brand in any purple places on the map.
