MODERATORS
Yeah seriously, if there's a single thing we've learned from this whole election, is that the best thing for the left is to enforce absolute ideological purity!
We must not tolerate any unorthodoxy! Better to abstain than anything!
It's like you want to take this loss and make the lessons permanent...
You say that as if the DNCs campaign strategy wasn't to absolutely abandon the left and try to court "moderate republicans", which we very obviously just learned don't actually exist.
...because taxing the rich, adding affordable daycare/child tax credits, a propose ban on price gouging, and other middle class incentives were abandoning the left...totes. The narrative that's being pushed here is pretty bullshit. Her platform was on point for the middle class and below.
Sure. She campaigned in battleground states, more than any where else....but that was strategic. And it makes sense at the time.
Everyone just keeps saying "she abandoned the left" without adding literally any examples of it.
The DNC fucked up by not holding primaries, but Harris ran a pretty damn good game.
