    I'm talking about finding one of the few people in this country who outright opposes capitalism, and then accusing them of irredeemable moral failings because of a disagreement over retail politics that has zero material impact either way.

    Again, I'm begging you, pull your head out of your ass and don't act like you're trying to sabotage whatever group you're in.

      There's nothing "irredeemable" about this, and I don't care that you "oppose capitalism."

      You are arguing for social democratic candidates to go along with imperialism, because Americans may be rewarded with social democracy.

      You are arguing that people should not criticize social democrats supporting empire because it may damage this negotiation. That is supremely evil.

      You claim it is about "pragmatism", but it is not. If Cuba and Iran are any indicators, we are more likely to see sanctions dropped on Venezuela than we are to see Medicare for All implemented.

      I will support the actions of politicians when they support my political aims. I will criticize them when they don’t.

      This has been my line on AOC. This is the line you have been pushing back on. You don't want people criticizing AOC because you support her political calculations.

      Again, I’m begging you, pull your head out of your ass and don’t act like you’re trying to sabotage whatever group you’re in.

      Get over yourself. This is not an organization. We are not organizing. You got called something mean online for saying depraved shit.
