The two progressive lawmakers have addressed massive crowds in solidly red states including Idaho and Utah in recent days, as party of the national Fighting Oligarchy Tour.
A survey taken by Harvard’s Center for American Political Studies and Harris between April 9-10 found that 72% of Democratic voters supported politicians like Sanders (I-Vt.) and Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), “who are calling on Democrats to adopt a more aggressive stance towards Trump and his administration and ‘fight harder’,” rather than leaders who are willing to “compromise” with President Donald Trump.
You’re clinging to semantics here, which is very frustrating — and honestly not helpful at all except for edgy leftists who can’t stand engaging pragmatically with electoralism because it makes them feel dirty.
When I say pro-democracy, I mean they’re not explicitly anti-democracy, that is not explicitly pro-dismantling-democracy-forever-with-high-priority the way the other guys demonstrably are. So yes, given the context, we’re grading on a curve here — obviously. That’s why we say they’re the lesser evil as opposed to “the good guys”. Jesus fuck, some people really want to be the smuggest person in the death camp. Right now Bernie’s your only shot, but I’m not your boss, keep shitting on him.
And who did they sabotage it against? Jesus Christ!

Maybe you should go back to reddit and complain about voter shaming or something.

Respect? Who said I respect them? But letting nazis win to spite the libs is suicidal. Now not only do you get zero progressive policies through (which will kill people), you also need to spend all your energy fighting for your existing rights (which will kill people) and weathering the storm (which will kill people).
Also, remember my initial objection was to you lumping Bernie in with the corpo Dems, despite you yourself admitting that they rigged the primary (and if you won’t say against who, then I’ll say it: against Bernie).
PS: I’m done with this conversation.
