    Your country is going down the shitter, and your entire left wing is convinced that doing the same old thing will be better the next time.

    The same old thing is a boring centrist.

    Leftism isn’t all about skin color, sexuality and gender. It’s about a living wage, affordable housing, free education for everyone, free healthcare, it’s getting money out of politics, and most of all its about making those rich fuckers pay their fair share.

    And AOC is the most likely candidate that typifies those positions. Hence why the party is willing to shut out all women just to stop her personally.

        This sentence is how we got here.

        now is the time to BEAT THE NAZIS!

        By having no ideals!

        run who ever the fuck can actually get them out of office.

        this reads like “run another dull centrist again. Regardless of whether they can win. Again. We can always blame the left when we earn another loss. Again.”

        You are advocating for a lack of policy and just running as “well, at least we’re second worst to the nazis. For now. And by as narrow a margin as we think we can get away with.”

        Again.

        That loses.
