    Thank you for saying this. I’m a pretty aggressive feminist but I think this desire to paint the losses of Harris and Clinton on sexism alone is dangerously reductive. I strongly feel like until neoliberals categorize women losing as an individual losing and not an entire gender losing we won’t have real success there. Like, when McCain lost no one was like: WOE MEN CANT WIN it’s OVER for white men boohoo!!

    I hate when they do this boohoo shit over women while running the least charismatic rat fucked campaigns. Wearing pink and holding a sign when they need people wearing red white and blue and open carrying the constitution with brimstone fire.

    That being said, I genuinely in my heart think that AOC has a chance. As long as the controlled opposition doesn’t rat fuck her

      Look into Ken Martin, there is zero reason for anyone to think he’d stand in front of progress.

      And he has final say in the DNC till after the next presidential election.

      Seriously, I wouldn’t be optimistic about the DNC if there wasn’t good reason to be.

        Ok I’ll go read about him. Thank for the tip.

        I don’t feel very favorable about the DNC. I assume they will purposefully fail
