The moderators should be ashamed of themselves.

Why? They accomplished what they were there to do.

They’re as confident now as they were in October 2016.

Progressives tried to tell you.

Or AOC.

Plus, he’s been moving to the right as quickly as he can for months, so the party should love him by now.

The DNC charter says that only the voters can select the nominee.

They argued in court that they could ignore this.

It’s not up to the DNC to “allow” candidates or not. The DNC charter says the voters choose the nominee. They literally have no power to change the will of the voters.

The DNC argued in court that they could ignore their bylaws and put their thumb on the scale as much as they wanted. Guess that only applies when they’re fucking over progressives.

That’s not why she won’t be considered. She’s progressive. Democrats would rather have a hereditary dictatorship headed by the Trump family than a progressive.

Why would democrats start now? They’re acting exactly like they did with Clinton and are expecting different results.

Likewise. My representative is a maga chud because the party cut off funds to her progressive opponent.

Sanders is just as old and he’s always been on the right side of history, it has nothing to do with age.

Sanders is older. And putting a finer point on it, the party was ageist af against him in 2016 when he was only 75. Being a progressive adds 20 years, I guess.

The party would rather lose democracy forever than nominate AOC.

If there’s one thing Milton Mayer keeps coming back to, it’s how it was all the fault of the establishment German political parties of the early 1930s for not being more motivating of people to vote for them, and no one on an individual level needs to do anything until they do first. He keeps harping on that central point: If a dangerous political movement arises in your country, it’s okay to hang out and wait and not resist it until the alternative is sufficiently awesome for your tastes. It’s pretty much the central theme of his whole book.

And as always, you decide that I’ve said something I haven’t.

I mean, honestly, I don’t disagree with you that the general crappiness of most of the Democrats from about 1992 up to and including 2016 laid some abundant groundwork for the rise of Trump.

They didn’t stop in 2016.

That doesn’t mean it is safe for anyone in the world to let Trump come to power again this year.

Didn’t say it was.

I’ll be temporarily blocking you so I don’t even get notified that you responded.

Next time you badmouth the anti-genocide left for being both anti-genocide and to your left, I’ll be there. And you will have conveniently unblocked me, just like you totally ignored me.

And I don’t support genocide no matter how much you interpret my opposition to MAGA bots parading themselves around as far lefters.

You have no evidence whatsoever of these “maga bots” except that they oppose Netanyahu’s genocide. That’s not evidence. That’s you making shit up about people you disagree with.

I’m not accusing you of shit.

You keep calling me a trumpist.

But you HAVE to know here are bad actors among you

Yeah, I’m talking to one. You constantly lie about the anti-genocide left because you want to discredit the left, opposition to genocide, or both.

If you’re not in favor of a Trump win and genuinely don’t support him in any way, then why not join me and the others in weeding out those among you that are there in bad faith

I’m not going to join your personal mccarthyist inquisition against everyone to your left just because you’ve imagined that there’s Russian psyops behind every rock.

I honestly don’t get your angle here.

Like I said last time you said this: I criticize those to my right. You should try it sometime.

Congressman.

And you can’t defend your support for Trump.

I don’t support Trump, no matter how much you interpret my opposition to the genocide you love as such.

The party that is supposed to be fighting nazis is so devoted to incrementalism that they won’t do enough until it’s too late.

You can’t defend your support for genocide, so you pretend that anyone who doesn’t support genocide must be to your right. Vote for Biden if you can.

Great news for boomers.
