    It’s always the progressives who need to rally behind the centrist, isn’t it? Never the other way around because you’re just a coward.

    How about you grow even an inch of a spine and rally behind someone who wants to make real change? How about you stop spending you life on this planet being nothing more than a barrier? Get it together.

    I really don’t give a damn whether you hate me or not, your opinion is worthless. You don’t know the first fucking thing about togetherness, just empty platitudes that make you comfortable so you don’t need to actually face anything difficult.

    It's not infighting when one side supports Diet Republicans and the other side wants ICE to be abolished.

    With your own words. Newsom is a Republican from 2016.

    You literally said that progressives need to make real change by rallying behind unideal candidates who may be a little amoral. And you think it’s my fault for in-fighting because I want to focus on the more ideal and more moral options? Fucking please.

    I can’t tell if I’m more insulted that you’re lying to my face or that you would actually think I’d believe you. God, you truly are a pathetic little weasel, aren’t you?

    all I'm pointing out is that the conservatives are winning because they are willing to line up behind complete garbage

    Expect that is also the logic dems/dnc have used that got us to this point.

    you have to vote for Kerry or else we still have Bush

    vote for Hillary she's the only one who is qualified to beat the rnc - when running against Obama

    vote for Hillary she's not trump - 2016

    primary voters vote for Biden he's the only one who can beat Trump, we can't let Bernie have a shot - 2020

    vote for Kamala, what do you want trump again??

    No you are one of many saying vote for the dems no matter the terrible candidate while we've had nothing but failures from them, and constant capitulations to republicans. Especially when newsom is a republican just running as a dem like so many others in the party.

    Just because the republicans get instant loyalty does not mean any one owes a party votes. There's no point in voting for the dems when either way it ends up with the same outcome

    I'm pointing out is that the conservatives are winning because they are willing to line up behind complete garbage. If the progressives want to make real change, they have to be willing to rally, and that will likely mean rallying behind a non ideal candidate, and likely rallying with those that we feel are amoral.

    we need the progressives to line up behind the right leaning dems

    It literally is but sure say it's not

    It's people like you that need to realize that in the current political environment, establishment Dems have zero electability.

    Get behind a progressive candidate or expect to lose again.

    You completely ignored my post. If Newsom is on the ballot, he will lose.
