This is probably the best example of the shallow nature of Liberal thought
She's black and lesbian so she hits the diversity quota
Nevermind that she's just another corporate ghoul

This is basically Sinema all over again.
I love and hate it so much
Obviously, you can't be corrupt if you check the boxes, because everyone knows that corruption is an archtypical Trump-looking guy not an archtypical Stacey Abrams-looking girl.
Even then... how can you strictly be mad at Gruesome Newsom for making this decision. You know Karen Bass isn't going to make any attempt at a primary. You know if she did, the party would strip her of all her positions and denude her of funding, that the Silicon Valley democrats would turn on her in a heartbeat, and that there's a real chance a Republican insurgent would win a split ballot with some minority coalition as a disciplining exercise.
Corporate Ghouls are the only folks that need apply, because the good(ish) Dems don't actually have a solid base of support. If a Sanders style liberal could win California, you would think they'd at least make a run. But the only folks that take the plunge are quixotic losers or narcissist freaks.
We'll change Uber from the inside!!!
Kamala's strategist? lets listen to the biggest failure lol good plan!
Rod Blagojevich teir
This is anti-serbian racism. I pushed through card check for public sector employees and raised the state minimum wage.
So are they just incredibly out of touch or do they simply not give a fuck anymore?
They've never really hidden who they were. But boy o boy do they love to fucking gaslight.
: "We have to give the republicans everything they want or else it will alienate the working class, and then they'll just take everything they want AND call us SJWs!"
Like a left-wing version of a pick-me.
s being s?
To be fair to Newsome, you didn't  hard enough.
And people call me a tailist....holy shit.
Ofc its a Harris organizer lmao
I keep in touch with some young dems because I know I could just call them any day and they'd be down to drink themselves into oblivion because of some stupid shit the party did.
It's kinda dried up since the Trump years but I already know one friend is gonna be going to the bar tonight because of this.
Daily reminder that the Democrats are a center/center-left party, not liberal.
They are liberal. Liberals are right-wing.
You think liberals are left wing because one of your liberal parties is holding marginalized people hostage in a 2-party state.
this is such a basic take that  says it almost daily to like 30k people
No, both parties in the US are liberal. They're both neoliberal specifically, by definition.
little bit further to the right, really - they're center-right until they're inconvenienced, at which point they start moving rightward
Are you sure you know what liberal means? Market economics, privatization, capitalism good, all that stuff?
Daily reminder
try learning basic historical materialism instead
the Democrats are a right wing extremist party, wtf are you talking about. they're to the right of basically every party on earth other than the republicans
Death to America
Reminding yourself daily of a thing that is demonstrably false seems bad. The amount of negative descriptors that can be applied to doing that is a bottomless void without end.
If the Democrats are so centre-left why hasn't Pelosi gone on The Adam Friedland Show, huh? Ever thought about that?
Lmfao daily reminder? You remind people of this often and you have no clue what you’re talking about?
What do you think liberal means?
Reddit ass comment with Reddit ass understanding of politics and economics
Hey guys, go easy. It’s a left-leaning lib with their eyes not open yet…
They don't seem interested in a discussion
Daily reminder that the Democrats are a liberal party, not liberal.
Alright.
