it& #39;s frustrating to see people insisting that Sanders& #39; loss proves the democratic party is evil and must be destroyed when to me it& #39;s pretty clearly that kind of framing that lost Sanders the election. 1

if you really thought that the Dem party was intractable and unbeatable, I guess the thing to do is abandon electoral politics—which seems like a real shame after both Sanders and Warren had quite successful campaigns with extremely progressive agendas.

Like, if you never felt, "this is possible!" once during this campaign and you& #39;re a progressive I don& #39;t know where you were hiding.

losing really sucks, and obviously this is an incredibly bleak moment, but there& #39;s a lot of cause for hope as well. it& #39;s disheartening to see people throw that away.
