He wants to replace the current group of old, complicit, corrupt neoliberals with young, maybe(?) less complicit and corrupt ~~neoliberals. He does not want to replace them with progressives.~~

Edit: based on my browser history, I believe I formed the impression reading something in a Lemmy thread about a month ago probably related to this article, but I can't find it again so I'm just gonna say I must be wrong.

I guess every media outlet that I've looked at is reporting this wrong for saying he was backing young progressives. Even his website claims that. But I know Democrats love to tease at being progressives to appeal to voters, and then shift back to the right.

Hmm, ~~maybe~~ I've fallen for misinformation.

Edit: I can't find the thing that initially gave me the impression that David Hogg wasn't progressive, so I'm removing the "maybe."

I can't find it, so I'm retracting the claim.

Dunking on Liberals from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Dems keep working with trump to approve his picks, but what they won't accept is that if you sit down at a table with nazis, the only thing that's changed is the number of nazis at the table. @_cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Rules:

We allow posts about liberal behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.
