This, in its entirety.
The kind of Bernie Bro “purity” you are saying NO to, is exactly what we need to avoid.
The Dems need to push the things people are directly affected by, and care about. Safety. Health care. Accountability. Pro union. Supporting allies around the world. Ethical government. A “pro second amendment” view that is coupled with sensible gun laws, such as universal background checks. Be against tax giveaways for the rich. Be pro education. Be pro-choice. Favor religious freedom for ALL, not just for a few racist prosperity bible thumping heretics.
Conor lamb did it right. So did Doug Jones. They have given the blueprint for all to follow.
And encourage Trump to ummm hee hee ha ha “help” Repub candidates right down the toilet as he did in Alabama and Pennsylvania. The more his toxicity rubs off on them, the better for us. Weaponize that orange asshole against them.
But demanding a “purity test”, and fighting against anyone for not being “Bernie - ish” enough is stupid.
Besides, what is this crap about crypto-fascists, when we are now dealing with REAL fascists?
