  • Seems like you have two main rebuttles.

    1. Happened before the Boomers. Fine, “Boomers protected existing policy.”
    2. “Policy not needed” either it’s a problem or it isn’t. If it’s a problem then policy would improve it. If it’s not a problem then don’t list it.

    Also

    most Americans revere their vets.

    Regardless, you listed a problem which could be improved by policy which never happened because Boomers didn’t make it a priority.

    I don’t give two shits about Platner or whatever smear campaign corporate centerists are trying to run to stop the DSA from gaining ground.



  • Discouraging people online from voting isn’t campaigning.

    Says you. 🤷

    You’re trying to turn this into some kind of gotcha for me but it won’t work because I believe in a functional democracy voters don’t owe politicians or other voters their votes. All you’re doing is making an argument against democracy.

    At the end of the day Biden/Harris didn’t win the election. If you wanted a different outcome you should be angry at them for failing to do their jobs as politicians and find a way to represent the people they were depending on to get reelected. Biden didn’t have to go around congress twice to ship weapons to Israel. Biden didn’t have to side with rail corporations and block the rail strike. But these are the decisions he made and Trump won again. If you want a better outcome then work to get better candidates through the primaries.




  • They say to vote for their current neoliberal darling.

    … That’s what you’re doing.

    You’re trying to tell me that your motives make all the difference. I’m telling you on the internet if you walk like BlueMAGA and quack like BlueMAGA you’re BlueMAGA.

    How would you feel about vegans trying to sabotage a non-vegan, Pro-Palestine candidate?

    If we need their votes to win in the general election we need to consider who they would want in the primary.

    BlueMAGA treats primaries like winner take all contests which is precisely how you described it. How many more general elections do you want to lose so you can continue living in that fantasy?
