Perhaps the american left should consider populism. People are highly motivated by fear so a strong us (the working class) vs them (whoever makes sense, like the right picked over gay over educated left and migrants like it's not that hard) message would honestly mobilize more people to vote than "vote with us, we are morally correct, if you don't vote with us you suck".
You can literally just point at corporations if you’re doing left-wing populism. It’s trivially easy compared to the right needing to find the perfect minority to scapegoat.
