When your left-wing coalition depends on kowtowing to capital to survive, it isn't left-wing anymore.

So make yourself smaller, less relevant, less resources but ideologically pure. Not exactly a winning formula. You go to war with the army you've got, not the army you wish you had.

When the army you have sabotages you at every turn you absolutely do remove the obstructive elements. The modern Democratic party will simply never allow leftists to have any kind of political power. That's not how they roll, and by the time anything change America will have went full autocrat or starved to death.
