CPRM, Pt 3: LA 11/6

[Attorney General & PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Can someone explain to me how Richard Painter got the Our Revolution endorsement lmao?!

Because OurRevolution are a bunch of grifters who actually don't give a sh**t about ideology?

once again, he doesnt have the endorsement, so I have no idea what you guys are talking about.

Apparently we are talking about this:

Our Revolution of South Minnesota is some lame shoot-off, not the official organization.

No, sir. I hope that US is a clever country. An idiots, like those in DSA, usually don't win too much in clever countries)))). Sometimes, somewhere - yes. But - not more.

You know socialism is not going away anytime soon? We've scored wins in the VA State House (Lee Carter), primary wins in the PA State House (Sara Innamorato, Summer Lee), AOC in New York and Rashida Tlaib in Michigan.

So what, the centrists got Ed Case tonight. There's going to be DSA members in congress in January, probably going to be a sizable socialist caucus in Congress by 2020, and plenty of wins for the left on the state legislative level. The Blue Dogs have been disappearing from the halls of Congress with each election cycle, and not a whole lot of them are gonna get elected in November. The "pasokification" we've seen in Europe, the decline of the centre-left, is occurring in America right now. The New Dem strategy crashed and burned in 2016, and we saw the rise of a right-wing populist movement in America. We've also seen the rise of a new left-wing movement in America.

I think Democrats are gonna excel in 2018 without a cohesive ideology or party leader for its voters to get behind, but just wait until those 2020 primaries start. Whoever emerges from that 20-candidate pileup that's bound to occur will be the face of the Democratic Party, and most of the candidates running in downballot races are going to be influenced by the policies that presidential candidate supports. Don't believe me, look at Trump and the Republican Party. GOP voters can't get enough of him, and GOP politicians are standing by him and supporting his policies and cabinet picks without hesitation.

Spoiler alert: that candidate is not gonna be a Joe Manchin or Andrew Cuomo "sensible moderate" type. It's either going to be one of Sanders, Warren, Gillibrand, Harris, Booker or even Brown. Because what kind of Democratic Party where a majority of its members support single-payer healthcare, free college, a $15/hr min. wage or even a federal job guarantee is going to support centrism for the sake of centrism?

Not every candidate AOC endorses will win, just like not every young Democrat hotshot that has the support of the DCCC will win this year. Or that not every Blue Dog will win this year by virtue of their glorious, invalauble C E N T R I S M. Parties and movements have wins and losses, and the DSA is a fledgling movement. But socialists have won primaries and even general elections against Republicans across America, since last year. So I wouldn't say that AOC's win was a fluke in the Bronx. It is a part of a growing progressive socialist movement in America that continues to gain ground with each passing day.

Y'all. Until I see candidates actively supporting an end to capitalism and a beginning of a democratically controlled economy and classless society, I am not calling them socialists. AOC, Kaniela Ing, Bernie, Rashida Tlaib, and the like are much closer to Social Dems then they are to even "moderate" socialists.

Stop conflating the two because it's honestly starting to get embarrassing watching people change their avis to maroon and claim how socialist the Democratic party is becoming. If anything it's becoming a Social Democratic party. Real heavy socialists see the Democrats as anathema to a classless, equal society where capitalism is replaced by something different.

Its American Socialism, which is Social Democracy. Thats just how Right the Ovetone window is.

uh... tell that to an actual full on Socialist and see how fast you get told off.

I'm an "actual full-on socialist" and I stand by what I said. Are you a socialist?

What if Bernie loses his primary?

[Chief Justice Keef]

What if Bernie loses his primary?

He'll continue to run as an independent. If he wins, he'll just reject the nomination.

His only opponent is a no-name that hasn't campaigned.
