Any time one of these “progressives” wants to step up and actually do the hard work needed to make the changes they demand of society, they have my blessing.

Democrats should be ashamed that they ever tried to mine that dog whistle for all it was worth.
I was talking about national recognition like AOC has now.
Well, Vox cites its sources, so you are welcome to point out what Vox is getting wrong. In the meantime, you seem not to have opinions so much as ideology, and one that paints you as the heroic underdog while everyone who isn’t in lockstep agreement is a corrupt and evil monster. Can I interest you and yours in a…
Groups like Justice Dems and Our Revolution are necessary...
Most Bernie supporters weren’t willing to pay for their revolution:
In other words: she’s a Justice Dem and Justice Dems can’t be trusted. Hopefully, someone primaries her and NY-14 can toss her vapid, attention-seeking ass out after one term.
If I never hear another goddamned word about the white working class it will be too fucking soon.
“The reality on student loans is - after I pay mine up I will be dead set against raising my taxes to pay others off.”
Next time just save your breath and go with the timeless “Fuck you, I got mine”.
Nah man, I’m filed with nothing but love for my small town small minded bretheren. I want them to prosper, to be happy, to strive for a better tomorrow.
But it’s a tough love. They need to stop shitting the bed then blaming it on immigrants. They need to stop asking for a better job and more benefits but then voting…
“Bullshit, every poll shows he does better with POC than whites.”
No what I believe is that she shouldn’t have involved herself in that primary at all. AOC had just won her own primary and instead of staying in her district and connecting with voters she flew across the country to ratfuck another WOC because Bernie apparently decided that Nina Turner was no longer his token du jour.
“The reality on student loans is - after I pay mine up I will be dead set against raising my taxes to pay others off. You can call me selfish but a lot of Millennialswill turn against free tuition once they pay theirs down.”
“If she hasn’t completed her first day in Congress, how is she officially part of the Establishment?”
I have no interest in destroying her; I hope she succeeds. But that’s up to her.
They do in a handful of states still, including New York. What’s funny is that they never really did in Missouri.
There are better ways to say people should probably cool it with the AoC thing. Invoking the WWC is a sure way to get us to ignore you.
I completely get the reluctance to crown AOC as the new messiah. She’s shown that she can win the primary of a deep blue district by turfing out an ancient incumbent that no one had ever heard of until he lost. Not much in the scheme of things but great propaganda to pump up the mystical legend of the “powerful yet neg…
White working class voters had their say, and they chose Trump. By huge margins. And the damn Democratic party is always courting “white working class voters” because they won’t fuckin shut up about them.
“White, working class voters” don’t exist for Democrats anymore. Their racist, lazy asses are voting republican and have been for years. That’s why she lost! It’s the definition of insanity.
