    I’m assuming you’re a normal person. With a job. Are you willing to leave your job to run a campaign? And what if, in a year when the election happens and the campaign is over, you don’t win? Now you don’t have a job.

      No, I’m not normal. I’m problematic. I wouldn’t pass liberal purity tests. So it can’t be me, it’s gotta be one of y’all. People like me and Platner can’t do it, we’re far too flawed. Evil, even. It’s going to have to be one of the morally normal liberals. So which one of you are gonna step up and make the sacrifice?

        Could we stop framing literal rape and voluntary mercenary work as “liberal purity tests”?

                You’re telling me this isn’t dripping with sarcasm?
