Dems have been fairly consistent at not deploying National Guard or other federal resources, and local police generally have remained tolerant up until sidewalk encampments or camping in public places happens. At that point, the law is being broken (depending on the state), so the question of whether and how to remove the protesters becomes more complicated. Also, the universities themselves are the organizations asking the police to remove protesters, not the government.

Bernie Sanders worries young people are underestimating the threat from Trump

He believes a policy change by Biden on Israel is long overdue, but also worries that young people are underestimating the true threat that Trump poses and in their anger over Israel and other issues, may not recognize that Biden is better on their side – even if he is not where they want him to be on Israel.

We have to give the Democratic Party the presidency, a supermajority in both houses of Congress and every state legislature, every governorship, and 20 or 30 years of SCOTUS appointments before we can begin to do anything even remotely Left.

Except that for some reason, when they're in a safe district, they run even further to the right.

People who think Democrats care about wielding and maintaining political power in service of a broader project (much less a progressive one) are flummoxed by this.

Those of us who understand the Democratic party as a jobs network for politicians, donors, and their fail kids are not surprised. It's inevitable that the party would rally to defend the incumbent because that's just what the party does (naturally this is only applied selectively - you will not see the same protection afforded to Cori Bush for example)

Democrats choose to wield political power only when direct threats to that jobs network are perceived. This is why Bernie Sanders was viewed as a more immediate threat than Trump*

*perception is key here. Bernie proved himself to be a fraud so I don't think the threat was ever that real, but the party apparatus certainly treated it as such

Is Stancil really what the next generation of Dems look like? Just the most hideously entitled ghouls who don't even understand why they had to hide their contempt for everyone not exactly like themselves.

I would like to reiterate my belief that future younger Dems will be even worse than their geriatric predecessors, because growing up privileged in the context of an even more unequal age cohort will just drive them even more insane.

Concepts of implied "nobility" will start to become more and more common as they need to justify things.
