It takes real genius to marry a Republican and then coincidentally lose every Democrat campaign you work on for the next 30 years.
the second most insane thing he's ever heard is that it's not acceptable to sexually harass female students
The ragin' cajun said that? The guy who has been wrong every time I've heard him talk my entire life? Damn, we have no choice but to abandon entryism.
“WHAT!?!?!?? You want to stop me from sleeping on the job and replace me with someone who’s actually trying?!? THAT’S CRAZY!1!1!”
watching the disconnected takes of the older democrats makes me wonder how disconnected i am since i'm closer in age to them than i am with someone like hogg.
You can't be anymore disconnected than Carville, he's one of the king shitlibs.
i think bernie and aoc prove that there are varying levels of disconnected-ness.
Fuck James carville.
It's literally the thing that the republicans party just did to get much more radical/conservative people into office. And it worked.
I hope Hogg can do the same but I fear the establishment will be able to beat back the challenge to the centrists. The deep state/CIA/state department orthodoxy has to be able to be in control of at least 1 party.
hell yeah we are cranking our hogs
Okay James, I'll accept your premise if you'll let me have the necromancer that's manually beating your heart next.
How is this ghoul still alive, he was looking like the fucking Crypt Keeper decades ago already
A steady diet of crawdads, gumbo, and jambalaya
Oh just have a heart attack already, you old coot.
James Carville calls David Hogg's plan to primary 'ineffective' Dems with 'ineffective' Dems the 'most insane thing' he's ever heard
Fuck this dude. He hasnt been relevant since the last century.
He's been married to a hard-core conservative for decades, clearly he's never been offended by their politics. His high point was just a waterboy for the Clintons, who were nothing more than Republican-Lite.
Time for all those DINOs to hang it up. Weak rhetoric and action from weak-ass weenies like him and Schumer and Biden are the reason that Conservatism has steadily gained traction for decades, as Democrats fell farther and farther behind, until they literally allowed Nazis to overthrow our government. He can STFU, and GTFO.
And Hogg is Vice-chair of the DNC?! This is the first I've heard of that! Congratulations to him. He was the biggest fighter after the Parkland massacre, and I'm so glad that he's not only still in the fight, but has moved into a position of power. Young people like him and Max Frost give me slight hope for the future.
DINOs
nah these washington generals like Carville are the democratic party.

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

-
Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.
-
Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.

Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.
