Ohhh you’re intentionally trolling. Ok. You just made it way too obvious. You have to keep it subtle for it to work, not just openly say absurd stuff

Ummm no. You might need to work on your reading comprehension

Defeating because of that. We have to recognize that us Dem voters are mostly on the same side, but that there are some among our leadership who are fully corrupted and do just need to be unseated

I agree to a degree. But I think it’s important to actually work through internal disagreements rather than paper them over, especially because often they come from party leadership being far too beholden to corporate money, and doing things that are both bad policy and electorally self 1/2

Imply that the left flank of the party (including the minority of black primary leftist voters, btw) has voices that simply matter less, and should be ignored and marginalized

I’m also not blind to the reason this was even brought up in the first place. Black Dem primary voters are consistently the most conservative of Dem primary voters. Trying to claim that they represent the core values of the party in a way that other demographics don’t is a way to sneakily 1/2

Black people are an essential, but minority, part, just like every other component part of the coalition

Where it’s clearly used to refer to all reliable voters. Which is definitely how it’s usually used, and is the most analytically useful meaning. Using it to refer to black people risks diminishing how the Dems only survive electorally through a deeply multiracial coalition of which 1/2

Yeah, that’s fair, that definitely is an example of someone in the business of politics journalism using the word base that way. That’s the first time I’ve ever seen this usage. I’m much more used to this type of usage 1/2

Base's anger puts Democratic Party leaders on shaky ground
The Democratic base is angry. Not just at Donald Trump, Elon Musk and the “Make America Great Again” movement. Democrats are mad at their own leaders they view as outmatched and out of touch.

Ummm, what? Where did I ever say it didn’t? I’ve just pushed back at people disingenuously using accusations of racism as a cudgel to keep pro-worker politics down.

About people disingenuously weaponizing identity politics… like you are doing right now. Like Clinton did in 2016 when she tried to distract from her awful policies by calling Sanders supporters sexist

I mean, I totally agreed with your initial comment. Racism of white people is 100% the biggest obstacle to working class solidarity. Everything I’ve said is totally consistent with that

None of this has to do with respect for black women, or lack thereof. It’s just about misunderstanding what a political base is, and basic math. I’ve never denied that black women are by far the most reliably democratic broad demographic. That’s not what this is about.

Nope, I mean the working class, nice try to deflect from the point though. The working class is EVERYONE who isn’t a rich parasite, regardless of race or anything else. We only win when we all unite

Ok cool, because you’ve just made it clear that you can’t back up the idea of leftists weakening the party, AND you’ve ignored Cuomo and other moderates literally running against the party’s own candidate, with Trump’s endorsement

How have they weakened the party at all? The strongest, most enthusiastic and most culturally impactful Democratic campaigns in recent memory have been leftist campaigns ( just look at NYC right now), and centrist Dems have been willing to weaken the whole party to hurt leftists. Also your link 1/2
