      Why should progressives running against democrats while railing against the Democratic Party expect a helping hand from their opponent/the democratic party?

      Why should progressives get treated worse by democrats than republicans do? You’re acting like progressives are instigating here.

          They aren’t treated worse because that makes no sense

          The messaging to progressives is “You will shut up and vote as we order you. We will never listen to your concerns and we will blame you for every loss we earn.”

          The messaging to republicans is “Ok, who do we have to throw under the bus to get your support, Mr. Cheney, sir?”

          Yes, progressives are treated worse. Your gaslighting is predicated on a ridiculous lie and I will not be interacting with someone who insults my intelligence as harshly as you just did.

                  So, you’ve gone from telling ridiculous lies about how rejecting progressives and kissing republican ass is somehow treating progressives better than republicans. When you were called on it, you acted like you said nothing of the sort, and now you’re sealioning.

                  I don’t want to talk to such distilled dishonesty anymore. It’s bad for the soul to be reminded you exist.
