No. when it happens the Cops and Secret Service round up the half-dozen closest poors and make them do it. Very disruptive and upsetting to the community

If you're petty bourg enough the very thought of manual labor seems like a punishment.

well i guess the idea is that he wouldn't be having to do this if not for the destruction.

problem is, he'd have to be doing something else. something not assuredly easier or less demanding

so her "concern" is completely nonsensical

Proving that you are still arguing against a strawman rather than my actual argument.

Which is this, as a leftist there are two priorities that have to be balanced.

One is promoting policies that will improve people's lives. The other is stopping policies that adversely affect those same people from coming into being in the first place.

The former is done by promoting good candidates with the policies we prefer and the second is done by denying Republicans the opportunity to enact their own measurably more awful policies.

Ergo the strategy of vote your principles in the primaries but party in the general.

The thing is that you will never find a politician who perfectly matches your ideology. I sure as gently caress haven't. But it's very loving obvious that while I don't agree with every Democratic politician on everything I do strongly disagree with every Republican politician on literally loving everything.

There is also the fact that truly leftist solutions have to be bottom up otherwise they are just another form of authoritarianism.

People keep trying political solutions to what is in actuality an issue of education.

To be clear I'm not advocating that people should stop fighting for or advocating solutions from the left. What I am advocating is that it doesn't help the cause to give the fascists a free pass by undermining their opposition.

The enemy of my enemy may not necessarily be my friend, but it does not make any tactical sense to fight a two front war when it gives the advantage to that common enemy.

First priority has to be stopping the slide towards fascism because failure to do so at this point has a strong likelihood of preventing any future much less any sort of socialist paradise.

Yes Centrists suck and they are stupid, short sighted, craven and in many ways deluded poo poo heels, however they are still orders of magnitude better than Republicans.

The Republican party with it's toxic ideology needs to be crushed and excised from the body politic. That has to be the priority. Once that is accomplished will be the time to fight out the new divisions. As long the Republican party exists in its current incarnation anything else plays to their advantage.

The biggest thing right now preventing Hillary from running again is she'd be up against a LOT more competition just in shear numbers than 2016. If you want someone like Bernie to win you want as many centrist hacks jumping in the pool as possible

I think if Hillary ran all the other centrists would bow down to their yaas qween and step out. That is why Hillary must not be allowed to run and why as many other succdems as possible should be encouraged to pile into the clown car
