Pelosi, Schumer and the like are corporate Democrats bought and sold by monied special interests. They hate progressives because the status quo is how they make money and maintain power.

Because democrats would rather lose an election than make any moderate progress forward.

Abdul wants to spend on Americans, the billions we give to Israel to further the genocide of Palestinians, instead.

That’s it. That’s enough for establishment Dems to consider him an enemy. If you aren’t Israel First, they will try to bury you.

I just hope people like Abdul can get into office and put an end to this nonsense. Thanks to all the money we give Israel, they get to enjoy free universal healthcare, free college, and affordable housing. We have none of that in the US.

Because they are moderate neo liberals, not moderate Democrats. They should not be considered a part of the coalition ever.

“Moderate” Democrats? As in neoliberals? That is to say, conservatives. Gee, I wonder.

Not moderate democrats. Conservative democrats. Calling them moderate is what the corporate media does to keep shifting the Overton window to the right. These people are the extreme right wing of their party.

Do you even have to ask? The establishment views keeping control of the party as their raison de etre, beating the republicans is secondary. Keeping faith with their monied backers and or blackmailers is first priority, the party was captured a half century back.

Because he's good at what he does and might actually try to deliver.

because centrist dems would rather lose than let an anti israel vote into congress, despite the massive majority of dem voters who dont support israel.

Because a modern "centrist" or "moderate" Democrat is just a Republican from the 80s with some paint slapped over some spots.

Because they're being paid by Billionaires and Israel. We know this.

Vote BLUE no Matter WHO!

Democrats are afraid of missing out on the use of acceptable bigotry. They love to be biggots for largely acceptable bigotries when they can. It is the easiest way for them to guard against leftist policies. They have never been there to move the needle. They are there to take credit for the move when forced to by decades of civil rights movements making progress. They mostly serve as a filter that makes sure that those policies are as diluted and ineffective as possible.

They don't offer any real material improvements from their policies; so their entire appeal rest on the idea of inclusive and progressive policies. They rarely actually fight for them and quickly push away minority groups when they think they need to to win. Harris 2024 immigration ads being the obvious one. Or the awful immigration policies they tried to push before the 2024 election that basically gave Republicans everything they wanted. And now just openly transphobic Democrats running for elections.

The most acceptable bigotry in this country that reaches further than immigrants or LGBTQ people is rascism towards arabs and Muslims. The Democrats have always reached towards what they perceive as "the center" to portray themselves as "reasonable" when the bigotry is more largely accepted. In this country, rascism towards arabs and Muslims is very much the center, unfortunately.

Democrats won't actually stand on the principles that they pretend to have. When, a Muslim man starts talking about policy that has actual material impact and improvements, their donors can't have that. They'll associate them with 9/11, they hold the place of the acceptable bigotry in order to do their actual function. Which is to serve the interest of the capitalist class that line their pockets.

Pelosi can fuck off to hell. Stevens can fuck off to hell. Israel can fucking stew in their own shit just like we are. Fuck Israel fuck corpo Dems and APIAC fucks.

Not moderate. Corporatist

They pretend to be dems with legitimate concerns while serving the interests of their corporate donors, which also serves Republican interests. They’re billionaire’s lap dogs being paid to disrupt the dem-leaning side.

Because they serve their donors and that’s what the donors want.

Stevens and Pelosi are dumb fucking Zionist cunts that's why.

Pelosi - California rep

Donny Deutsch - former MSNBC host based in NYC

These people don't even live in Michigan. The headline of this article, and others like it, are completely manufactured by mass media.

Probably for the same reason left wing democrats bash centrist democrats.

The better question is why this community is full of shitty articles talking about how bad the democrats are right before the midterms.

I swear it’s right-wing and Russia propaganda.

The answer is pretty clearly stated:

It’s wrong, and it isn’t a reflection of the Democrats in the Congress of the United States.

The issue with a lot of the far left is that "allyship" is prioritized to the point where it's impossible for anyone to denounce anything or anyone as long as it's nominally "on our side."

on multiple occasions I've found leftists that are incapable of even denouncing Hamas, a terrorist organization that has deliberately murdered women and children. Should be very easy to say "I'm pro-Palestine, but I denounce Hamas, those guys aren't a part of my movement." But we don't want to offend any allies so let's not say anything like that!

So if you're in an extreme allyship culture it's difficult to understand someone saying they don't want to be associated with someone even if they are on the same side on many issues. The enemy of my enemy is not always my friend.

Really the pro-Palestinian movement would have a lot more success if it could separate itself from terrorist groups like Hamas and from overt antisemitism. But vibe-based internet movements with no clear goals are incapable of understanding when someone that's nominally "on your side" is more of a liability than an asset.

The uncommitted movement are explicitly single issue voters, and GOP is way better at attracting vaguely racist single issue voters into their tent. If the Democratic Party becomes a party that is about appeasing the vaguely racist single issue voters, then how is it any different from the GOP? The typical "both sides are the same" voter suppression tactic becomes true at that point.

And sure you may be used to being the ones labeling others as being racist and it really stings when you're the ones being labelled as such. But it's obvious that while not everyone that's critical of Israel is antisemitic, all antisemites are critical of Israel. Do you need an Venn diagram? Given the anti-Israel coalition refuses to recognize there is any antisemitism in the ranks (must never reject an ally!), they're not doing anything about it. Must never criticize those that criticize Israel!

But yeah criticizing people, even those within the same party is normal. What's actually weird is being incapable of having any kind of rational response to it, other than to attack. Always attack never defend, the mantra of cults everywhere.

It's also obvious that the uncommitted are more comfortable with being allies with Hamas and overt antisemites than being allies with the Democratic party.
