14. I think the idea that the triangulation wing of the Democratic Party is supposed to be BETTER on

social issues--

is one of the more spectacular pieces of flat-out bullshit that I've seen anyone try to assert, in a political context, in my entire life.

It has zero basis in reality, it just helps some peoples' narrative they have running in their head- because the actual divisions on actual issues in actual reality aren't favorable to whatever script they're trying to run.

I mean, look, if you want to assert that triangulation is a more viable political strategy for winning, a la Bill Clinton '92-'96, hey, at least that's a logical position with a basis in actual facts.

But to try to say that the progressives who have been dragging the rest of the party forward on things like marriage equality for years are insufficiently committed to social issues... it's beyond goofy.
