@lhfang That’s a dodge. You don’t dislike her because you think she’s a plant for the GOP, you dislike her on substance and her past comments. I don’t prioritize that stuff over scaring the Dems into economic populism by voting for her. You do.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@lhfang She’s running purely on economic populism in a time of extreme corruption and oligarchy. That should be rewarded in my opinion. I care about that first. Crowley and the Republican are jackasses and corporate lackeys. Not hard for me. I get why you have an axe to grind though.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@ZaidJilani Maybe not. But the only danger is if she’s such an incompetent idiot she prioritizes immaterial things and makes left populism seem stupid and unhelpful to people who would’ve otherwise jumped onboard politically. Getting a Zohran is worth risking getting a Brandon Johnson.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@admcrlsn Because the Dem establishment has a habit of creating sexual/personal misconduct allegations whenever they fear the Left is getting too close to power. They’re hoping to consolidate against Hong and Barnes doesn’t want the headache.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@EmmaVigeland If you and other lefties learn to stop being manipulated by fake rumors/allegations, that’s good. If we “believe all women” then the corporate media is going to say every leftist is an abuser while letting actual criminals roam free. See why you shouldn’t agree to their rules?

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@baseballot So it’d be more responsible to lie? The GOP has more billionaire backing, more foreign funding, gerrymanders more, denied 2020, targets citizens for speech wantonly, endorses political violence regularly. You’re a loser, Nathaniel.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@EmmaVigeland Do you expect people who hate your policy ideas to not lie about and smear you? Why? If they don’t need evidence against Platner, they won’t need it against you or anyone who supports a Left populist agenda. Those are the rules you agreed to, right?

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@ryangrim That angrier movement to come may be the nationalists Trump betrayed in favor of the establishment GOP. The seesaw will continue until all populists recognize who their actual opposition is. A US Morena movement is the only path for stable democratic reform.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@matthewstoller Democrats are mostly controlled opposition and a lot of leftists’ whole identity is having a boot on their neck. This isn’t bad at all to them. Much darker things will lurk beneath the vacuum they create however.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@matthewstoller Purely strategically, Platner maybe needed to go scorched Earth in response. Sound the alarm of a billionaire scheme to silence dissent with baseless smears and allegations. May have worked. Can’t tell how much of him quitting is due to guilt, pragmatism or something else.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@matthewstoller Lefties are too easily controlled by magic words without actual evidence of wrongdoing. Can’t challenge power and be this easily manipulated. If he’s replaced by an Israel supporter, they got played and/or weren’t serious enough to begin with. Dangerous looking situation.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@kenklippenstein Pretty spot on here. Platner’s critics were mostly elitist trash who hated him only for what was good about his campaign. Apologizing is weak and ridiculous. His supporters should make sure his replacement is *aligned* then simply move on.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@lxeagle17 People were drawn to his anti-genocide and anti-oligarchy campaign and considered all opposition to be bad faith establishment smears which was a reasonable instinct. If and how he’s replaced will be revealing.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@MariamaJames13 If most black Americans were like you we’d still be slaves. Pathetic. Most of us have self respect and don’t give a damn about DSA but just want the white billionaires you worship gone. Keep selling your soul and begging for crumbs I guess.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@matthewstoller 2

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@NateSilver538 Platner is going after him because Fetterman chose to abandon those “disaffected white dudes” willing to vote for populist Dems and Platner is saying he won’t. Whatever base Fetterman has now is GOP partisans only, not “disaffected white dudes” looking for populists like Platner.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@NateSilver538 Fake and cynical people hate when they see real ones find success because it makes them wonder if selling their soul was necessary. Some of us want to tax the rich and end US support for genocide. Not everyone dreams of scamming dumb people for a living like you do.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@NateSilver538 They are not real scandals, Nate. You don’t like his ideology/economic populism. You agree/identify with lots of the depravity and greed Platner is campaigning against. That’s why you dislike him. Own it, buddy. You look weak and whiny talking like this.

[Jibbwell Tibbons @jibbwell]

@baseballot The GOP is completely out of control and needs to be restrained. They think it’s hilarious and Dems are losers for following made up rules/norms when they just do whatever gives them more power. Dem voters are furious and tired of this endless one sided bullshit.
