There is much space to turn a lot of liberals into leftists, if leftists were better at talking about how left policy is actually better and left politicians will fight harder for you.

But there are simply too many white male voices on the left.

But because they let too many white men run the narratives we get BS like ‘establishment’ and ‘bend the knee’ and ‘can’t wait to watch dem tears when bernie wins’ and ‘why do you hate poor people’.

Look how many liberals find what difi did repulsive. There is space to move.

But a lot of these make sense when you realize that people at jacobin and intercept are not here to move liberals to the left.

They are in it for personal fame and $$.

Ayanna Presley made a great case for why she should be in Congress, and it wasn’t based on a lie about establishment Dems or being performative.

It was based on making the case that people closest to the pain should have power.

It moved me, instead of making me roll my eyes.

But if all you want to do is be douches online to other people, you’ll never really be able to move enough Dems and you’ll always just me a minority in the coalition.

Get rid of your boys, who think of life in terms of domination and find more women, especially women of color and Black women, who can make coalitions.

Demote the Glenn’s, Ryan’s, and Klion’s. Elevate better voices.

Dems are making a play for moderate Republicans by being nice, not by being assholes. But Biden is still loudly and proudly talking about trans lives and Black lives.

Learn from them.

The fact that difi was resoundingly hated from most of liberal twitter is proof that I am right.

There is space to move us further left.

But not when the left is lead by rich white boys and can only talk about class and not any other form of oppression.
