        We lose elections? You dumb bastards can’t hold a coherent political organization together without cannibalizing eachother.

          And Donald Trump being president right now is my fault right? Despite the fact that even if every single person that voted third or leftist party voted for Kamala Harris she still wouldn’t have won? That is the leftist’s fault for protesting for free healthcare and not the Democrats for losing easy votes from Center left people?

          That is a fact, by the way. It’s been reported on. No matter how many childish insults you throw at me, even if EVERY SINGLE VOTE that went to Jill stein, Claudia, and. EVERY OTHER SINGLE CANDIDATE COMBINED VOTED FOR KAMALA HARRIS SHE STILL WOULD NOT HAVE WON.

          Now, DSA is a tiny bit different but the DNC is actively working against “you”, and people like Platner keep toeing their line of American military exceptionalism and nationalist rhetoric against brown people.

          No matter how much you insult me, it also doesn’t change the fact that this guy went to the Middle East during one of the most brutal, violent, genocidal, torturous campaigns ever seen. And then he went on Reddit and bragged about it. About killing non white people.

            Graham platner has never been close to power, your attempts to stretch his own sins to the level that both the Dems and Republicans have is intellectually dishonest. Its just about on the level of people given him hell because he made a joke about beatin it in a portajohn while he was in the middle of a warzone.

            Your analysis of Platner’s “military exceptionalism” falls flat considering how many times he has openly opposed it and used his platform to denounce stupid wars of choice, like Iraq and Iran.

            That’s why I “hurled insults” at you, because I am tired of the ever changing cavalcade of purity tests (.ml exemplifies this) that leads you intellectually impotent clowns to shoot yourselves in the foot EVERY TIME.

            Platner is a person, flaws and all, and has lived a life that has put him in positions that have no good decisions. I can relate, since my life has been jumping out of one frying pan and into another to get by. I hope we can build a future where everyone has the ability to hold the luxury beliefs that you Marxist-leninists get to indulge in.

            We need practical solutions, not theory. That’s why nobody listens to you or people that think like you.

              Nobody listens to me, is that why people like Platner are using progressive “antiwar” policies to appeal to leftists? Or is that socialism and reading books is stupid? lol, Graham’s most popular and most progressive policies are based off 100+ years of Marxist economic theory buddy, as Neo liberalized as it is.

              Ever wonder where the “socialist” part of “Democratic Socialism” comes from?
