146. Hold a grudge?

He did it right before posting this OP and since. We're not talking ancient history.

No, he said anyone who criticized Bernie was a corporatist. Daring to care about women's equal rights is "corporatist." He called people who believed Bernie placed a greater priority on white male voters than them "liars." He posted a thread about "corporate money" in politics and then systematically left glib, dismissive comments toward anyone who raised substantive points, even those who said they favor systemic reform. His behavior makes clear he has no interest in unity.

The attack of corporatist is being used to defend injustice and inequality. How do insulting women who speak out for their own rights help fight Trump? Tell me that? I'm sick of the bullshit. People can say anything. It's what they do that matters. Becoming like the far right doesn't fight them. It acquiesces to them.

So spare me your bumper sticker slogans. Either you have no idea what you're talking about or you support the use of mendacious insults to enforce economic inequality and the privilege of those who already make twice the median income at the expense of increased poverty for women. There is nothing progressive, just or decent about any of that.

I am sick of seeing the concerns of the poorest, most vulnerable Americans dismissed as corporastist, while those who make 2-4x the median income are heralded as the salt of the earth. It's a transparent effort to prop up privilege at the expense of injustice and poverty, and it's morally bankrupt.
