    I was one of the last holdouts here. I was still weakly defending her maybe a couple years ago, but definitely not anymore. I actually can’t recall the last time anyone here had anything positive to say about her.

        Nah, she completely sold out and is looking like the next generations Pelosi after like 4 years.

        At least it took bernie a few decades and multiple presidential runs for the dnc to completely neuter him.

          Even today Bernie is at least bucking the establishment line... Not enough to make waves, but enough for a few ripples.

        Wasn't that LiberalSocialist? I have no idea if they actually believed anything or if they just liked starting struggle sessions.

          That AOC was doing what the unions wanted? Yes, she was doing what a slim majority of their administrators wanted.

              Sorry if I was being ambiguous, I was saying "Yes, [I disagree, because it was merely] what a slim majority of their administrators wanted [rather than the unions as a whole, or even the normal supermajority of administrators]"

                Don't worry i understood, and i agree with you. I was just doing the LiberalSocialist bit, where they would spam shit like "Do you disagree?" and "Power Dynamics"
