What is the "Cocaine Left?"
Symptoms of cocaine abuse are aggression, antisocial behavior, actions that are dangerous to themselves and others, psychosis, overconfidence and irritability.
A certain portion of our fringe is dangerous the same way that MAGA is dangerous. They're uninterested in building anything, or accomplishing any policy. They want to set fire to everything in sight.
The Cocaine Left is hurting us, and making it impossible for the larger family of the left to thrive and accomplish things. And as someone who just celebrated 20 years of sobriety, I can tell you - the kindest thing we can do is stop enabling them.
If you think Russia, China and Hamas are the good guys, you are part of the Cocaine Left. If you believe violence is a valid political tactic, you are part of the Cocaine Left. If you think burning America down so your ideology can rise from the ashes is best, you are part of the Cocaine Left.
It's not going to be easy cutting them off and moving on without them, but in the end we will all be a lot healthier.

I'd have to ask. I'm her age and it isn't something I've noticed.
She had to come up with something on the spot that isn't already a right wing slogan and "Champaign socialist" was already taken. Need to bundle those who critics of NATO and genocide as decadent and under the influence.
