And that exactly is the core of the partie’s problems.
Take a load of these idiots that haven’t figured out that social democracy and democratic socialism can and usually do coexist in centre left parties.
Hey dumb fucks the US economy isn’t even capitalism at this point, it’s a fucked up breed of corporatism. I’d fucken kill for Smithian capitalism at this point because it’d be an active improvement over the current system.
Put these centrist out of a fucking job.
Shit is so far goddamn right that a centrist dem is that same as a GW Bush Republican.
Fuck these people.
In 50 years we have only gone fucking backwards. Time for progress.
And that is why we fucking hope you ALL get primaried.
We do not want centrists! We don’t want anyone who offers the olive branch to PEDOPHILES AND THIEVES. What we want is for our representatives to remember they work for us, not the other way around.

Yes, the “centrists” are capitalist conservatives. The progressives are social democrats. Since it’s a two party system, the Republicans fell to the far right, and the conservative capitalists will fall to the social democrats. It’s cute that they still think they’re in charge of the party.
At a certain point if you can’t win over voters in your own party, then the problem isn’t with the fucking voters
Not anymore. Read the room.
Not in THIS economy!
Love that it’s bringing the problem people we want gone front and center. Bye Felicia.
A bunch of policies are good both for society and for capitalism (universal healthcare, free college/trade school, taxing the rich). Why don’t we tackle those before we argue amongst ourselves?
Universal Healthcare in their view is bad because it retracts capitalism for insurance “providers”. Free college to them is bad because it retracts capitalism from banks who are able to create loans that follow someone their entire life through multiple bankruptcies. Taxing the rich is bad from their perspective because they think a higher tax burden retracts from the goal of capitalism, which is to be a slumlord or whatever.
They don’t allow those problems to be put* aside for the enormous benefits and freer economy when people aren’t living paycheck to paycheck scared of what the next emergency is going to be with their body.
Edit: put*, not out
Then they don’t understand capitalism very well.
I agree, but put another way, it’s much harder to show actions that result in profits for their big donors if the method of those profits being bigger is filtered through regular people and increasing their ability to afford the products of said donor. By keeping us out of the loop they can take more credit when their 6 or 2 year review comes up.
Even when giving us that ability to afford things may in many cases lead to capital interests becoming very rich maybe even more rich than if they had put their effort torwards deregulation or corporate socialism/subsidies instead, especially in markets where the products are expensive but desirable to most people.
You are totally right, and I hate that our politicians are so nearsighted and greedy. Bleck.

The hubris of saying you know what your party is better than the voters. Please say it loudly, often, and put your name all over it.
