Uyghurs situation in Xinjiang? Just a police action, do not fret. Not ongoing genocide like in EVIL Canada.

I am definitely not a tankie.

i know it's all in bad faith but compare the warren people worshipping warren and her staffers while the bernie people are yelling at every bernie surrogate every time they say something not perfect. i don't know enough about effective strategy to know if david's right and i can see why he'd say it but at this point saying this poo poo seems like it just hurts him by saying it. yeah loving vote for biden if you think he's still better than trump if bernie loses, but jesus man you shouldn't be saying it because it makes you look weak

He shouldn't be saying it because he's a member of the Bernie campaign and he's talking about it in the past tense and acting like Bernie dropped out.

He's an electoralist, he doesn't see any path forward for the socialist movement that doesn't involve the Democratic party. That reality ain't gonna change until the electoral college and FPTP are no more.

Yes, but also make it crystal clear that they're not winning elections ever again until they start compromising to the left.

I think Bernie sees that, probably rightfully so, as a tactic that would alienate a huge part of the electorate from him and his movement forever and cement him in history as one of Nader-tier infamy. His goal is to take over the party from within, not put a gun to its head until it does what he wants. You can't do that when they have way bigger guns than you.

Maybe, but the movement is much stronger than what Nader had, so it might be possible to keep it going between elections and make enough of a dent to shake things up. Obviously people would hate you, but they already do.

well he made up for it by voting for the war in iraq, what do you want

Some policies you will see pushed more:

-Elimination of SS and Medicare programs for anyone under 55.
-Elimination of Medicaid as it is rolled into Medicare.
-Minimum wage reduction or elimination.
-Child labor laws being weakened.

These are "sensible ideas" that I heard during the 2015-2016 season. Go talk to the olds in 2020. They love this stuff.

Well he's gonna have to choose whether to either alienate the establishment and the olds or every person who ever supported him. And guess what, the former group already hates him almost, perhaps even just as much, as they did Nader.

lol

so let me get this straight

Democrats voted for electability (basically trying to guess how someone you've never met will vote) by picking someone that appeals to Trump voters and Republicans, who has a 90% approval rating among Republicans. To do this, the democrats alienated everyone under 50 and their entire progressive wing.

Do democrats have a plan for when the economy isn't in recession and coronavirus hasn't wiped out all old people by November?
