Where is our Democratic leadership?

61. That's the opposite of what I'm doing. In reality, I am not imposing any form of "purity test *

In reality, I am not imposing any form of "purity test," nor am I engaged in denigrating or shitting on our party and its elected representatives. Rather, I am advocating for strengthening the Democratic party despite its imperfections. It's about focusing on the positives. Increasing support and voter turnout for Democrats is crucial to combating the Republicans.

As I mentioned earlier, the landscape has evolved. The paradigm has changed. We are facing perilous times where party loyalty holds significance. Those who seek to "punish" or "teach the Democrats a lesson" by abstaining from voting or endorsing third-party candidates inadvertently aid the GOP.

Let's dial down the theatrics. No one has been subjected to "vicious attacks." While I refrain from branding anyone as "the enemy," I do regard actions deliberately detrimental to the party as disloyal and treacherous. This approach, as you aptly put it, is the "formula for defeat," benefiting only the GOP.

I'm afraid that I must let you know that feigning outrage and false offense is not an effective persuasion tactic. Personally, I find it unconvincing. When someone feigns offense over perceived slights, it often signals a recognition of the fragility of their stance and weakness of their arguments.

It appears we have reached an impasse in our discussion, and I see little value in continuing further dialogue on this matter. Goodbye.
