What zero materialism does to a mf.....or you know the most basic understanding of history and politics from even the most worthless lukewarm socdem analysis. And she repeated this position unchanged more than a year ago. Idk how desperately starved some american socialists still are for parasocial connections with politicians and to believe in "the mostly good politicians fighting on our side " and how they delude themselves into not seeing she and the others are unsalvagable and of debatable value/use at this point

It's just incredibly depressing to see someone express genuinely good political views for the first time in my adult life and then watch them kinda collapse on themselves like the empty suits they inevitably become.
Every movement needs leaders and icons and role-models. Would have been nice if she'd been one.
Because they're careerist hacks. These people don't give a fuck about you, it's a game to get higher on the ladder, and this sort of pablum is classic management-speak. They have savvy media teams that know how to use the right cultural signals to get the rubes excited, but in 1-on-1 with their mentors, it's all shit like this. People like Omar generally do good things, but fundamentally they're still the enemy.
