      Nobody purity tests more than the democratic party. Back in 2016 they were screaming “NO MORE OLD WHITE MEN” at Bernie, then putting their full force behind biden four years later. The democratic party has every excuse under the sun for why a candidate shouldn’t be allowed through their completely party-controlled primaries but demands everyone submits to their pick, even if their pick supports genocide with billions in weapons, just as long as that candidate assures the rich that “nothing will fundamentally change” as things continue to get worse for everyone else.

      Why are you blaming leftists anyway? If the big-brained geniuses at the democratic party calculate that leftists are so insignificant as to not bother listening to them, then how are they to blame when the democratic party loses against a clown yet again?

      There were not even acceptable ones from DNC, they were not good for workers, not good for cost of living, not good for foreign policy, possibly just for lgbt and other social issues , but social issues can’t be first things
