Gripweed posted:If you believe that the Republicans will sweep the midterms in 2022, then why do you want AOC to lay the groundwork for primary challenges now? If it's successful and we get a bunch of better Dem candidates in 2022, wouldn't that backfire spectacularly when they get trounced by Republicans in the general? it’s not a matter of belief, it’s fact. candidates that aren’t right wing austerity freaks will stand a better chance in the general. this is not that complicated to understand.

If D's get destroyed in 2022, most of the people who will lose are the rightmost people in the caucus. That is what happened in 2010 and 2014. Even if AOC and Justice Dems is replacing just poo poo D's in deep blue districts with slightly better people who would be new squad members, they would have more power in a smaller caucus. There is really no reason not to primary literally any member.

Bari has been tweeting at and name dropping the Dashas for a while, it's really sad. Red Scare's last guest is a crank NYU professor who got in trouble (not even fired, he has tenure) for "questioning the use of masks" and barely got any press coverage-of course his blog is full of anti-vax, anti-trans, the election was stolen from Trump stuff. They have no standards so Bari must really feel like a loser to not get an invite. Also I listened to the You Can't Win Lasch episode because I don't get the fascination with his writing but that did not help at all. Have yet to read or hear anything about him that portrays his ideas as anything other than "Did you know these radicals and liberals are actually just selfish deluded clout chasers with no real morals? And feminism is bad Marx is bad." Paffgen has issued a correction as of 21:38 on Dec 27, 2020 |
