Buttigieg is the JD Vance of the left: positions himself as the smartest guy in the room, leans hard on personal narrative while ignoring the privilege of it, and spouts erroneous arguments in a polished, articulate way.

To the extent that democratization meant establishing a clear and independently verifiable record of what everyone was reading in a given text, a word generator with opaque sources and personalized outputs is the exact opposite of the press, and has the exact opposite effect.

Dems should say this right now, loudly and clearly: Anyone who is trusting Donald Trump, of all people, when he says what he’s directing you to do is lawful and that you’ll be protected later may be putting themselves in a very precarious position. 6/

Run Democrats who would vote to impeach and remove Donald Trump from office. Senate and House.

Run Democrats who won’t blink when they’re winning.

Run Democrats who actually excite young people for a fucking change. Not ones you have to fall back on “but Trump!” in the general.

Make it count.

When it comes to billionaires, we gotta make it hurt.

When it comes to fascists, we gotta purge ‘em from all levels of government.

When it comes to Big Tech and other industries plagued by monopolies, we gotta get Biblical with antitrust.

When it comes to the SCOTUS, we gotta pack it.

If you like the current trajectory of the country, look to the center. It’s likely any Dem will win this year.

But business as usual has failed.

This moment needs big swings:

- Massive taxes on the rich
- Antitrust overhaul
- Anti-corruption probes
- Medicare-for-all
- Voting rights overhaul
