    Jacobin attacks.

    Jacobin hurts itself in its confusion.

    Jacobin could benefit from some self-reflection I think. Upholding social democracy as the political line was an understandable (though insufficient) position throughout the Sanders campaign, but millions of people watched the results of this unfold in realtime from front-row seats. I understand Jacobin isn't a hive-mind and people with varying opinions get their work published there, but come on. Make up your mind. Are we supposed to burn the constitution? or are we supposed to scribble a bunch of op-eds and :vote: while denouncing any example of successful revolutionary change? After all, if we're going to denounce the Bolsheviks and the Cubans for their revolutions, where does that leave the Jacobins themselves?
