THE MOVEMENT AND THE 2020 ELECTIONS
(When Pelosi was challenged as leader of the House Democrats, she was challenged from a right-wing Blue Dog Democrat, not a progressive Democrat, with many “progressives” including AOC and Rep. Jayapal speaking up for Pelosi’s progressive credentials.)
As sad as that is, it some funny shit.
(In contrast to the failure of progressives, the militarists had a banner 2018 election. The 11 former intelligence officials and veterans were the largest groups of victorious Democratic challengers in Republican districts. Throughout the 2018 election cycle, Democratic Party leaders worked against progressive candidates, for instance pushing them to oppose Medicare for all.)
As I brought up during that cycle, these militarist candidates were stacked hard by the war machine and democratic leaders. 11 out of 17 won. They have no intentions of winding down the kill machine. Or making health care better for us.
(This is an old story that each generation learns for itself: the Democratic Party cannot be remade into a people’s party.)
And I'll unfortunately be saying this until the day I die. Because people just don't seem to be brave enough to step away from either of the very parties that are actually against them, or wise enough to see they're being duped. That perception management is a real bitch.
