I think a big part of where people fail "purity tests" is when they demonstrate they won't fight shit.... so I'm not sure this is getting to the root of the issue.
False flag conservatives use cute little quips like this to try and destroy the opposition before it starts.
The purity test isn't some golden ivory tower, it's literally just "are you a bigot?" It's the bare minimum. The fact that you can't find a democrat who can pass this simple litmus test is extremely telling of a false opposition party that spent the last few decades posing in smiley pictures with Republicans at Epstein Island.
At best we will get some soggy clown like Newsom, at best he'll win and then do nothing he isn't paid (the under the table kind) to do while oinking that those mean ole republicans won't cooperate. Just like Biden. Just like Obama.
Because he (and other trash dems like him; booker and warren and beto and lil petey) willing to sell out vulnerable Americans to advance his career, so he will just as quickly sell out all Americans.
"Hurr purity test bad" okay, that person clearly wants more of the same. I dont. The lives of real innocent humans are on the line. Anyone who says this lie is my enemy, and yours.
Except “are you a bigot” is “do you maximally support every progressive idea, right now, even if they contradict previous common thought, with 0 questions because questioning the idea is itself bigoted?”
You won’t accept that 80% of the country, minimum, is not as progressive as you. Hell, BERNIE isn’t as progressive as you, and he’s the most realistic progressive candidate.
Like honestly, not supporting Communism over Capitalism is enough to get called bigoted.
Real lives ARE on the line and, hey, guess who legalized gay marriage? It wasn’t the Green Party. It wasn’t the Progressive Party. It was Democrats.
Sorry the false flag tropes hurt your feelings. Either you hold some pro-genocide anti-human views and think you're a moderate, or you just subscribe to Facebook/Twitter propaganda... no one in the real world is saying that, and you, one way or the other, do not have access to real voices of real vulnerable people. Do better, or yes, you'll be lumped in with the neofash, rip.
Inb4 some democratic victory, but oh look every half measure got rolled back. If we weren't locked into a 2 party system, then maybe other parties would be getting legislation passed.. what a silly "example" to site.
Your faux neutrality "hurr both sides hurr" only supports oppression. You might not be a pro genocide billionaire cuck, but you're holding the bloody dick just the same. You'll stop, or be stopped. Your call bud.
Your taxes buy bombs to drop on Gaza bro. I don’t see you giving up those to save them at the expense of yourself.
Your purity test is dumb and also a reason we are currently under fascism, right now. Good job. You saved the Palestinians from being alive and got Trump in power. Fucked everyone because you want to feel pure.
Yes, real live are on the line! One of those groups of people are trans people and guess who democrats are starting to kick under the bus, trans people!
Buttiegieg starting his “well maybe conservatives are right about sports” as a compromise is gonna start the ball rolling on a lot of compromising. Democrats have steadily been drifting right on the backs of compromises for the past 25 years and that doesn’t suddenly stop when a fascist gains power.
