DCCC: a gentle reminder about what progressive women do when their rights are in the crosshairs

[BainsBane]

21. Would you prefer a candidate who supports reducing white men

To second class citizenship And certain poverty to enable healthcare for the majority? There is no Medicare for all without reproductive rights. There is privilege for the few at the expensive of the many. There is greatly increased poverty for women and children and skyrocketing death rates, as Texas demonstrates very clearly.

The ease with which so-called progressives declare the rights and lives of the majority if Americans impractical reveals a great deal. It is this sort of thing that exposes the rhetoric about equality and Medicare for "all" as empty. Standing up for a few is not all.

It's also interesting how people who complain about the Third Way lurch to the center are so anxious to push the party so far right that we go back to the era of back alley abortions. The Third Way are socialists compared to the shit we are seeing now.

The notion that taking away the rights of the majority of voters in this country is a winning strategy is absurd There is no evidence to support that claim, and it is morally repugnant. Polls show overwhelming support for reproductive rights. The notion that the majority of the country and the electorate have to be denied full citizenship to win is an obvious lie. And why the fuck should the majority care which of two white male supremacist parties win? Why the fuck would anyone sacrifice their own survival to implement medicare for the few, which is precisely what you are advocating in your post.

I say it's time to quit pretending that policies that keep the majority from desperate poverty are promoted for the sake of winning. If you want to reduce 75% of the country to extreme poverty and high death rates so that you can line your own pockets, have the guts to say so.

This shit couldn't be more transparent.
