"But Walz isn't strong enough."
"But Pritzker has too much money."
"But I hate Sanders."
"But AOC is too young."
What the FUCK is wrong with you? Do you not understand fascism has arrived? Unless we UNITE and fight it, it will cement. GROW UP!

As of today, that's proven to be a big fat steaming pile of Bullshit
We seriously just need to stop fighting and put our weight behind these people as the new leaders of the Dems.
Also it’s 3 years away. We don’t have to pick yet, so until then it’s all of them.
BTW who gave anyone the idea our new dictator will hold elections in 3 years? I wanna know.
Then continue to put centrists up as heroes knowing full well the system won't allow them to reform it even to the very limited reform those centrists push for
Liberals have had centuries to join the left against fascism but chose not to
She has much fight in her.
Remember this past year where Bernie and AOC ran interference for the genocide in Gaza?
Anyone else think they can do it better than them?
I didn’t think so.
They'll make you stronger, son.
Of course, that wasn't the only reason, but still.
And it has gotten me a lifetime ban from TwitterX, twice.
I didn't even mention I hoped he couldn't swim.
Masks have been off for awhile. A good 40% of the insults about Schumer have been AIPAC/Israel/Jeewwssss even when it's not related to his latest fuckup.
I’ve heard some other bullshit excuses for AOC as well, but I’m sure it really just boiled down to “Oh my god, she’s not white and has a vagina!”
Has Bernie or AOC done anything tangible to help the working class ever? Like an actual change with an outcome?
When they criticized her, what reasons did they give? Personality? Hair? “Too aggressive”?
Or was it very specific things she’s done, the exact opposite of what you’re saying?
Treating women as equals means criticizing their actions.
I'm afraid there's no changing that.
Americans won't develop the necessary sensibility until after the nation has collapsed and the people have suffered greatly.
The world will be far better off without the military industrial complex needing for-profit wars too.
It’s more like playing chess than getting married.
You get another candidate next time around. (Hopefully.)
The Left (progressives and socialists for the most part) just want a denouncement of genocide and a promise of medicare for all
And right wing bots will happily amplify them.
AOC would be my absolute top choice, but we've lost with 2 extremely qualified women in a row, I don't think she'd win it.
The Uniparty Dems that wannabe 20th century Republicans
are doing everything they can to protect their complicity $$$.
Namely, smearing and sabotaging our honest Progressive Populist candidates.
but here we are
And the sooner the party splits so we can have a true left opposition Labor party for working class people, the better.
We can't go back to status quo bs.
Great fucking job. Really, kudos to you brainless morons that got us here.
John Kerry
Hillary Clinton
Kamala Harris
Now I don't know, electoral college-wise, if them not voting 3rd party would have made a difference this time, but no popular vote win.
Haris lost cause she failed to appear new or energizing and instead was just a Biden 2.0 at a time where people wanted change, not status quo.
You're desperately seeking ppl to blame cause Kamala couldn't possibly have gone with the wrong strategy altogether, to bad your math isn't mathing
Also, we'd had four years of Trump in office while adults were in the room. Now that that isn't the case... well, it's going about how I expected.
Those adults let this happen, my man. Instead of fighting fascism, they preemptively compromised, over and over, making a smooth road in front of the people they knew wouldn’t shut off the money hose.
Maybe Harris should have said what people wanted to hear.
Trump's first move this time around is to remove anyone who would dare oppose him at the executive level. Night and day.
I've been raging for like ten years since Hillary was chosen over Bernie as the nominee. Look at him now, he's out there, lucid as ever, angry as hell and still drawing people He would EASILY have been in office for 8 years Piece of cake and where would be now. 💔
Love AOC,Walz,Crockett
Vote blue no matter who.
Those who couldn't bring themselves to back the black woman in 2024 directly helped the orange fascist regain power.
Saw Guaras speech to Luthen Rael
Is it genocide, the gravest crime humanity has a concept of? The one tiny little issue we wouldn’t budge on is THE WORST THING HUMANITY IS CAPABLE OF?
Just say you don’t give a shit about brown kids and stop wasting everyone’s time.
Schumer
Pelosi
Jeffries
Klobuchar
Warren
Buddigeig
Any of these folks could earn my support of they would get real.
My old preferences among Dems:
1. Buddigeig (sp?)
2. Klobuchar
3. Warren (did I spell her right?)
Creeps defending Buddi: WTSF?
But if it’s more important to defend Pete than fight Trump take a serious look at yourselves?
Time for action!

There’s more than one good choice. Lucky us.
They need a working class agenda, whoever it is.
I even see some Dems moving to the right to be more electable.
It's tough out here.
#EndFascists #EndOligarchs #EndNeoliberals
Like plausible deniability.
You put aside petty ideological disagreements when you are dealing with Fascists and once you are victorious over them, then you can go back to the bickering.
We didn’t ask for a unicorn.
We asked for a plow horse, and we were offered a syphilitic goat.
All she had to do was call it a genocide and condemn Israel’s actions. Nothing prevented her from doing that.
Dude, you know your candidate was a genocidaire who helped preside over the murder of tens of thousands of innocents, right?
And votes
And the reality is you are right
The worst enemy to the person on the left’s success is the person on their left.
MAGA is burning everything down, but the mainline Democrats are too comfortable with the status quo.
We need a new party, and I think @fwdparty.bsky.social is it
The progressive passion for delivering broad benefits + hard nosed conservative supply-side thinking = #Abundance
Lots of nuance & details to figure out, but we can do it.
Candidates are held to a standard that is unattainable.
10+ million stay home because she did not meet their EXACT criteria (see: Palestine) and now you get fascism.
If a candidate doesn’t share some people’s EXACT view on taxes, education, race, etc then they stay home.
Republicans unlike Democrats, vote for the brand.
Lost to Trump TWICE???
The only way ballot boxes save you is by vetting candidates so that you stop letting Manchins, Sinemas, & Fettermans in.
