@ChowdhuryF33314@bonzerbarry lol yeah def but i wouldn’t put it past americans attacking their own ship. was interesting there was a “we don’t know where this comes from” aspect from the statement
There's a big bifurcation between the actual left/DSA politicians and the DSA co-chairs who keep getting plucked by Fox to speak for the left. The pols, unsurprisingly, are far better.
A young left-leaning Democrat from a Midwestern state with a Muslim-sounding last name and family from Africa wins a surprise Senate primary and talks about universal health care and opposing "a dumb war?" That can never happen.

.@AbdulElSayed argues that Michigan is not racist, rejecting arguments that he's not electable:
"People don't ask how do you pray, but I have been asked what do you pray for. People don't care as much about my name; they care if I care to remember their name."
It is flatly untrue that AIPAC’s goal is to combat antisemitism. The group spent millions to support Haley Stevens against Andy Levin specifically and explicitly because Levin is Jewish and a former synagogue president. Because of that, he represented a threat to their actual goal, which is supporting Israel. Why they try to pretend otherwise is beyond me.
Alysha Reimel, of the Revolutinary Communists of America, says her group is not supporting Abdul El-Sayed’s U.S. Senate campaign as he’s running as a Democrat. “So far, I have not seen any evidence to show that he is a communist. Maybe he believes in a nicer form of capitalism.”
@NateBlanchett@bestmanofonline i think it’s because a bunch of republicans voted in the dem primary just as a spite vote against Hillary pollsters were polling likely dem primary voters
it's kinda crazy how we have these next generation candidates who are rockstars and establishment dems are doing everything that can to kill their momentum because they'd rather the party lose then they themselves lose power
