177. Purity lol

Sun Mar 16, 2025, 06:35 PM

Mar 2025

I was wondering when the "purity" argument would surface. It is bs in my opinion.

Election after election after election the progressives compromise, work within the system, get in line and vote Democratic. But that is never enough. No, we must also stop advocating for our positions, stop talking about them. Supposedly we are the ones demanding "purity" - though it is the moderate Dems who demand absolute loyalty, who demand that we accept their approach and philosophy lest we be accused of being "divisive" or "helping Republicans." What is more "purist" than that? They can criticize us, but we are not allowed to even disagree with them.

Your side will probably win as usual. You have the money and the powerful people on your side and we are nobodies. Isn't that enough?
