Always keep in mind that the american democratic part is a center-right conservative party from virtually any non-US perspective. Contrary to the republicans, which are a christofascist-ultranationalist conservative party. But they're both conservatives. They don't like to work, they just want to make the rich richer.
Now, I should say, in particular the democrats do have plenty individual members who got the right ideas and do the right work. But they are struggling against an old party block that is used to never yanking the chain because they're hte ones benefitting from the status quo, and who are also by now too old to mind fallout from stuff like Trump in office or climate change as they'll die from old age in a few years anyways.
