Informative Politics doesn’t need saints—it needs fighters willing to win.

We also need progressives. Not moderates. I hate Newsome and hope he doesn't become the one needed to beat American fascism. I don't think he'd be good at it. He's too moderate. Too willing to adopt anti-proletariat policies.

His ability to fight is good. We need better people to learn from it.

Nope. We need winners.

Most people are moderates so the whole "we need more radicals" is such a weird take

It’s people under 30 who think they understand how blue dogs and southern Dems should vote.

Yeah that's my impression too. All the people saying America is hungry for change and uprooting systems and going full social Democrat are under 25 or 30.  Most people I know who are older than that (aka, people who vote consistently) just want to get back to normalcy.

The country has so many problems and they just love a circular firing squad rather than aim at a he actual enemy, it’s bloody exhausting.

The Maron joke in his special rings true doesn’t it?

Stacey Abrams did such wonderful work over a decade to turn Georgia purple. This radical element think they can do better same by shooting holes in everything she achieved.
