i will say this;

if it's time for the progressive movement as claimed... ok.
but where is the evidence of this?
its not happened with young people (they voted at what? 13%?)
we certainly didn't see it on tuesday overall.
and yes, i think that is an issue - it means that we are not doing the work to actually build a solid coalition where it matters.
and without that... any so-called revolution is a pipe-dream

now. instead of taking time to really excavate what all this means for people who want more progressive politics...
upto and including maybe bernie is not the best standard-bearer (neither is warren, sadly for me)
its hottakes and pointing fingers.
instead of coming up with a ground-game for the next four years.
its like shooting yourself in the foot, lol

tbh.. at *this* point?
i will take my chances with the people who retook the house in 2018
that's the level of organizing that is clearly lack and needed.
