When your left-wing coalition depends on kowtowing to capital to survive, it isn't left-wing anymore.

So make yourself smaller, less relevant, less resources but ideologically pure. Not exactly a winning formula. You go to war with the army you've got, not the army you wish you had.

The call is coming from inside the house, bud.

Go make your political party made up of exclusively people to the left of Elizabeth Warren and let me know how the half dozen of you do

Is she really your standard bearer for 'left'....?

[-] kandoh@reddthat.com 2 points 7 months ago

I used her as an example of someone not left wing enough for you guys to share a party with.

When the army you have sabotages you at every turn you absolutely do remove the obstructive elements. The modern Democratic party will simply never allow leftists to have any kind of political power. That's not how they roll, and by the time anything change America will have went full autocrat or starved to death.
