“Centrist Democrats—who’ve done nothing but vote scold, belittle, condescend & refuse to stop backing genocide—I need you to find an army of highly motivated young volunteers who will door-knock for capitalism and Israel’s right to snuff out children in tents” Brilliant idea Van!

I was confused about the new centrist line of "if you don't like the Dem Party go make your own" -- you really want to tell the left to become a third party spoiler? But yeah, that is what they want. They'd rather lose forever than give up their positions within the Dem Party.
@ImNotOwned The "Team Gentrification" stuff from Jeffries is literally shooting himself in the foot.

My take is that Bernie/AOC *not* calling for Biden to drop out was ESSENTIAL for *actually getting him to drop out,* because if they had, it would have immediately negatively polarized a faction of the party against the push, conflating it with progressive issue dissent (eg Uncommitted).
The anti-transplant warriors don’t consistently support tenant protections or YIMBYism or any plan to actually fix gentrification. They want to manipulate working class voters with racial sectarianism and culture wars while they govern for big capital, just like Republicans.

FWIW, I did some slightly more in-depth EI work, which is always difficult in races like this and should be taken with a grain of salt. But it is probably more informative than just looking at plurality-Black precincts, and I have DAC winning Black voters by 16 over Espaillat.
Whatever we do, let's not follow the example and strategy of the political movement that has utterly dominated American national politics for the last decade, including during the already-being-forgotten Biden interregnum.
