Yes let's eat ourselves guys, it's the only solution am I right fellow comrades? Quickly let's fuck ourselves as hard as we can, it's ideological purity that people need, not results!

    It's not ideological purity. I don't have anything against her, but if she votes Jefferies then the blue wave will have little effect imo.

    If america had an actual multi-party system this wouldn't have been a problem in the first place. You get your preferred candidate and I get my preferred one, most likely in a coalition together.

    So you think if Jeffreys gets to keep his job, and bearing in mind I agree with you that he is a fucking waterproof teabag, you think that this entire election cycle and all of the new people brought into congress, will have "little effect"?

    I mean it would be a blow, but don't you think that this kind of hyperbolic overreaction is unhelpful? Like, if he does, are you gonna give up? I'm not in a competition to be the most leftist, I want to push our wins and recover from our losses.

    They way you talk is defeatist.

    Okay, you are right. All is not lost. I am not trying to be defeatist, there will be other chances.

    I just think it's rare to see so many non career politicians win elections. It's a good moment to shore up and solidify that base before the two party rotating system rings back in.
