i honestly have never seen a political leader so thoroughly destroy their credibility so quickly and, on the other side, it is abundantly clear that if anyone can claim a genuine leadership of large parts of the democratic party, it is AOC.
Folks is it good when your own party's leadership in the House is dropping "listen to the women" and MLK quotes on you while swing state members of your caucus are talking about new leadership

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

In all of this, they haven’t even given an example of what he’s said or done that’s beyond the first amendment (because he hasn’t done anything). He’s just a Rorschach test for what people think about Gaza. Journalists need to push back on this every change they get. There’s a lot at stake here.

The U.S. government spent $710 billion in Trump’s first month, an increase from the same period a year prior. Cost-cutting efforts are ineffective, and job losses are occurring without clear justification.

Since Obama administration, at least, leftists/radicals repeatedly warned that Dems pouring cash into ICE and militarized police was not just evil in its own right, but laying the groundwork for open fascism.
We were dismissed, with various degrees of vitriol, for pointing this obvious fact out.

Interesting — ADL says arrest of Mahmoud Khalil shows resolve to hold "alleged* perpetrators responsible."
They then quickly say there should be due process before deportation, but continue that they hope this is a deterrent to *other* law breaking.
Do they see Khalil as guilty of something, or not?

A few years back, centrist Democrats & the Very Serious People mocked & dismissed the slogan ‘abolish ICE’.
Today’s actions are a reminder of how ICE is a rogue, lawless agency that is easily weaponized by an authoritarian administration & that it very much should be abolished.

You’re so unserious. It was a purposeful bastardization of the concept of a boycott so that a bunch of people could *feel* good about themselves while doing nothing.
It’s an empty symbolic gesture worthy of all the scorn. It undermines the concept of future boycotts!
Weird vibes to defend it….

I feel as if we're capable of acknowledging that a one-day boycott is mostly symbolic without becoming contemptuous and dismissive of people finding a little meaning and comfort in such a symbol. The scorn seems petty.

Isn’t the point of a boycott to have a demand and for it to be a threat of being continued in perpetuity?
