He's been chair for the ouster of David Hogg and the shameful behavior of the party he chairs toward Mamdani.
He's not the savior you're touting him as.
He's not a savior because nobody is.
He is what we asked them to do. Put the chair of the working families party into leadership. Someone known for progressive, popular policies. The Dems didn't go for the corporate shill.
Excoriate them for their stance on Gaza as you like, they deserve it. But you can't say they are ignoring us completely.
Until the party changes, the party hasn't changed.
As if there is a clear bright line and any progress before crossing that line is meaningless.
Oh cool. We're gonna talk about how great incrementalism is.
For people who like the status quo. When the party quits ratfucking progressives, I'll entertain the notion that it's not complete dogshit all the time on purpose.
Good luck with that.
I know. The party isn't going to stop ratfucking progressives because the party isn't going to change.
