  • This is so fucking dumb, the entire thing is premised on meaningful primaries occurring all over the country. How many of those “57” were actually competitive? I know my state had literally one candidate on the ballot. Biden extremely strongly implied that he wouldn’t run for a second term, then pulled a “lol jk it’s me or the literal fascist.” Most people didn’t want Biden to run again, but here we fucking are. And The Atlantic has the gall to say that this is a vocal minority of crybabies demanding an open and competitive primary be overturned. Fuck off.

















  • Oh I completely agree with you, I’m a more libertarian kind of socialist myself so I definitely don’t think liberalism is the answer. I also think that’s is disingenuous, and really discrediting to leftists as a whole, when people try to say that the GOP is liberal. They’re definitely not; on almost any social issue they are firmly opposed to the liberal position on civil rights, freedom of association, etc etc.
