As someone who doesn't keep up with this shit but does occasionally see it escape containment, this is amongst the clingiest shit I have ever seen come out of a democrat candidate and if people with less context and/tolerance for cringe see this it will do massive damage to the dem brand.

"the dems are too out of touch", this is true just not in the way that the reactionaries say. Parties need messages that appeal to people even out of the context that terminally online folks have.
