From where? That was my initial assertion.

We could just all walk across the street and take over the Green Party. They’re tiny and have tiny primaries.

And they actually have primaries.

Grey’s Law.

What’s with people who are like “Let’s compromise with evil and have a little evil, then.”

Oh, that’s simple. They know it’s never just a little evil.

It’s really not that hard to find something else to watch.

You’re collapsing progressives and leftists

and you’re collapsing progressives and centrists.

A progressive Democrat winning a red seat inside the party (as in working with and within the party like Rehmet did) is not proof that Democrats should “stop attacking the left.”

I doubt there’s much you would consider evidence that the party should stop attacking those to your left like they did with Mamdani.

It’s proof that better Democrats, even progressives in the party, can win and don’t need to resort to attacking their own potential coalition partners in the rest of the party.

I mean, the animosity didn’t come out of nowhere. This has been going on for decades, and it’s not progressives who betrayed the center.

Can always count on centrists to gloat that no one had the option to vote against the genocide that gives their lives meaning.

Would be nice to have an anti-genocide party. Fuck the DNC.

There being no ethical consumption under capitalism doesn’t absolve you from trying.

Perfection is the enemy of good.

Transphobia isn’t good.

But keep on compromising your morals and values for the lesser evil

Your interlocutor isn’t compromising anything. They got 100% of what they wanted from every candidate in the race.

Then let’s vote for good!

Good isn’t on the ballot.

Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

Stop framing genocide supporters as good.

Neither is the order.

Leftists out here pitting the Dems into a two-front war

Democrats should stop fighting the left, then.

Dems didn’t provide a post-pandemic Marxist revolution with a 50-50 Senate

They got the one thing you wanted done. They sold weapons for genocide.

flip a TX state senate district where Trump had won 58-41,

That was one of the progressive candidates you hate.

They are not fit to gatekeep liberals from political action.

Liberals don’t take political action. They prevent it. With one notable exception, in which they get out of their own way.

You’ve always found genocide hilarious, yes.

“carrying water” here meaning defending whatever any pro-genocide centrist does.

The election is over and you’re still carrying water.

Liberalism has been co-opted and is in turn trying to co-opt the entire left. Modern liberalism is just oligarchy wearing liberalism’s skin.
