A few facts:
-Classic's campaign is pretty clearly trolling. Like, duh.
-It's not our job to micromanage every candidate, so taking the most extreme things our most extreme members say and branding it as the consensus of the party is absurd. Although I guess it makes sense from a party where one of their Distinguished Elder Statesmen
TM recently tried to make a rule giving the Chair and Vice-Chair the ability to stop someone from running for President to encourage top-down rule.
-I can confirm that higher-ups in Labor have made deals with Ben as Yankee is describing. The idea that Labor is always 100% working towards "moving the country in a progressive direction" and don't routinely spend time propping up the, for lack of a better term, "far-right" for the purpose of making the rest of the party look insane is quite laughable.
-I am not a single-issue voter. And if I was, it would be on the issues that actually matter in Atlasia. Everyone currently in Congress supports legalized same-sex marriage, for example. I have strong disagreements with some Federalists on social issues, and we have discussed those disagreements. But those issues aren't ones that can be acted upon, since Laborites and moderate or libertarian Federalists will outvote them. However, many Laborites support polices that hurt people, too. Take a look at the things that have passed Fremont's legislature: raising the minimum wage to a point that would hurt rural businesses (and before you strawman me on that I signed a federal increase), anti-science GMO scaremongering, and literally abolishing private healthcare (like wtf).
Last but definitely not least:
-YOUR PARTY WAS LITERALLY LED BY A COMMUNIST!!!!!! If you think I'm being sensationalist, I am being completely serious. TNF was literally a communist, and was one of the more prominent members of the Labor Party for his Senate tenure.
(and now watch Laborites strawman one of my points to death, completely ignoring the other four)
