Only a few years ago I was laughing at him for being such a brain genious.
And now I'm only half ironically expecting him to show up, wearing an eye patch, and firing the first shots to kick off the revolution.
Dialectics. Every thing contains its own negation. Daou's liberalism has been negated.
He's not, he's saying he wants to build a horizontalist third party succdem thing. This only actively hurts the left, this isn't any more meaningful of a tactic then dem enter.
I'd feel differently if he was actually supporting a democratic centralist effort (even if it was still a big tent leftist party).
Where did he say make a 3rd party? He's talking about building up dual power.
Read his other tweets, he's been saying this for weeks in the context of supporting movement for a people's party.
If Peter Daou has successfully achieved this level of theoretical comprehension seemingly by accident over the last four years, no one else has any excuse
Daou shows us that even the most rabid hillary stan can radicalize into a socialist
There’s a bit of relief in organizing now. I don’t have to argue with “but he’s worse” argument. Just 4 years of stream of conscious dunking on and bullying libs. And finally once covid is over I can organize.
No, but it fades during election season. Now is the best time to get organizing.
Lol get ready for "we have to win back the senate". Although why should Trump is worse matter outside of electoralism?
Edit: I would like to point out that anti-war protests took a nosedive after Obama. I don't see how labour organizing would depend on Trump or Biden. Looking at what happened in CA it seems to me that even the rulers of the libs are out here to destroy labour.

There were still demonstrations after 2012 when Obama proved that he was a liar and wasn't going to end the war in Iraq.
Obama strangely ran on being an anti-war president when it came to Iraq, but he was all for the war in Afghanistan despite his big campaign promise that it would be over by 2014.
As for labour, yeah the Dems are absolutely going to be gunning for it. They didn't push Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for nothing.

He started new ones in his first term. Where were the crowds then? I know from studies that turnouts reduced dramatically after 2008 and they atribute it to partisan effects. I am curious if you have a source on how the post 2012 protests compared with Bush era ones. Also it sounds amazing that Iraq is still the major focus, when you had Syria, Libya, Yemen started by Obama. Syria did get some attention in the 2016 election cycle as far as I can remember.
Here is the study from 2011 which only can account for term one ofc.
Still a bit weird to me that he made a stopover at neolib before going to leftist after starting out like that, but everyone has their own path over
Without Daou, there would be no New USA

The Communist Party toiled for the nation.
The Communist Party of one heart saved The USA.
It pointed to the road of liberation for the people.
It led USA towards the light.
Is it just me or is Chairman Dao physically transforming into Lenin?
I'm seeing a link for in the comments for a "people's party", anyone know what's up with that? If it's radlibs grifting, or a honeypot or what.
Join PSL or PCUSA.
Things like "people's party" or whatever sounds very much like a Bernie bro rad-lib grift and waste of time and effort.
This is actually exactly what [a lot of groups in Detroit are doing right now] you organize to vote but you also know that voting is the least important thing and help educate and push people to realize that resistance in other ways is vital (https://inthesetimes.com/article/biden-trump-michigan-election-2020-tlaib-left)
