truly a wretched degradation from its past glory
I'm not CPUSA or anything but what is wrong with criticizing liberal grifter Cornell West?
ShowCriticizing Cornell West isn't the issue here. It's them attacking third party candidates, using the same framing that you'd hear from your typical lib, while simultaneously pushing the Dem candidate.
Among those facilitating this nefarious outcome in the U.S.A. are three presidential candidates smugly professing to be anti-fascist and progressive, even socialist: Jill Stein, M.D, of the Green Party; Claudia de la Cruz, M.A., of the Party for Socialism and Liberation; and Cornel Ronald West, Ph.D, of the newly-hatched Justice for All Party. None has a snowball’s chance in hell of garnering, either individually or collectively, anywhere near 5% of the vote in any state, let alone winning; but each can and will dilute the vote for the only viable anti-MAGA candidate, Kamala Harris
That's what I get for just skimming the article I suppose
A surefire way to identify unserious people is the attention they give to institutional credentials when they are not directly relevant. Even then, I've come to suspect them when it is relatively relevant. They better serve divisions of people into classes rather than to display one's expertise on a subject. Just ask anyone with a boss with a PhD.
Because they're critiquing him from the right for hurting Kamala's chances. Plus they say this:
Yet fascists are not alone in their mad drive, both here and abroad, to destroy the last vestiges of liberal democracy and replace it with a totalitarian tyranny of unbridled militarism, racism, and imperialism.

edit: beat to the punch
Oh no not people voting for the candidate they like!
Maybe if Harris wasn't so awful you wouldn't need to worry about people voting for someone else.
Also you gotta love that they single out West for this article because the argument that there's no popular base for De La Cruz and Stein is going to fall flat on its face.

Kamala has been going on a "we hate muslims" tour with Cheney(s) in states with large muslim populations. No one can save the democratic party from themselves.
