    Great so now they are setting up the primaries to also have the “lesser evil” bullshit by having Harris and Newsome battle it out.

    The whole fucking system is rigged.

        The classist politicians of the neoliberalist establishment that is the Democratic Party, of which Harris is a part of. You think she is doing this alone? You think these actions are not planned and discussed among themselves before being announced publicly in these little PR stunts? Are you naive to politics?

          I’m not so naive that I think that this is Harris alone. But I’m also not so paranoid that I believe this to be a coordinated effort from a unified DNC.

          Have you ever tried herding cats? Give them meth, and it’ll still be easier than getting democrats coordinated

            Of course it’s not unified. Doesn’t need to be unified. All we need is enough rich and powerful people who together some of the time and have some idea how other people are likely to act.

            And quite obviously we have that. I think 2016 was the most obvious time. Bernie was definitely the best candidate and he’s what the people wanted but he didn’t get the ticket. Doesn’t mean there was a giant conspiracy, could be a fairly small one.

            And yet they all seem to agree on supporting Israel. That’s pretty amazing for methed up cats, or maybe it explains their political positions.
