(57,294 posts)None. People like that have spent the last few years trashing the DNC. The organization raised a total of 75 million in 2016, most of it after July. How many Info Wars fans do you suppose are among those donors? Of course they never contributed to the DNC. They treated that organization as their servants. From the moment Sanders entered the race, before a single vote was cast, they complained about how the DNC were rigging the vote. One former DUer was very specific in how that "rigging" was achieved: by women and people of color participating in the party. She insisted "corporations" had sent us into the party to divert it from its purpose if representing the "working class, " revealing a conception of WC that includes only the most affluent Americans and not the immigrants, people of color and women who do the vast majority of low- to median-wage work in this country. The reason people like that are so eager to ally with Alex Jones and the Nazis is because they are exactly the same in EVERY way.
When do you suppose they sent in donation checks? Before they spread lies about the debate schedule? In between insulting black activists on Twitter, or right after their campaign to deprive the poorest women in America of healthcare as they partnered with the GOP in seeking to defund Planned Parenthood? Or was it after they succeeded in helping Texas reach its status of the highest pregnancy mortality rate in the developed world?
I am not interested in hearing yet another defense or those Trump-humping fascists. I'm thorough dealing with evil. They and their allies can rot in hell. And no, I am not interested in unifying around White Supremacy and bourgeois entitlement. I am not interested in capitulating to narcissists determined to regain the Democratic Party of Jim Crow.
