Yes, clearly you guys keep losing because of the DNC, not because of your inability to create alliances and earn everyone else's votes.

Remember, if a candidate needs to earn your vote, then your favored candidate needs to earn their votes too. You'll find it difficult to do so while you keep burning bridges.

Ummmm... okay?

Right.

then your favored candidate needs to earn their votes too.

Uh-huh.

Most interesting, I'm sure.

Will you be saying anything relevant any time soon?

For you, probably not. What I said is for people who actually want to see leftist change happen, not for people who just want to scream and win against liberals even if it means empowering fascist authoritarians.

It's always a good idea to actually understand terms before throwing them around.

Specifically, in your case, your misuse of the term "leftist," liberal.

Oh, you misunderstood. I was referring to the socialists and bona fide leftists who are actually trying to accomplish their goals and ideals.

As opposed to you, who prefers to be right and own the libs at all costs, versus actually seeing their professed ideals become a reality.

By the way, throwing terms around meaninglessly is also a bad idea. At this point I have no idea what you mean by liberal, because it seems to be "anyone who disagrees even a little bit with me".

Sooo... people you wouldn't recognize if they were standing right underneath your nose, then.

No, I guess you don't.

Do you wanna know why we call the far right the "far right?"
