Period.

But many on here try to act like I am somehow married to everything he says/does.

I have condemned tons of things he's said and done.

That just isn't enough for many in here.

Like an abused wife who refuses to file for divorce after a ton of ED visits, you are married to his
words/actions.

Did the HHS secretary not see the detailed plan on the Whitehouse website? It clearly said the plan was to make insurance cheaper. Problem solved

I agree but you and I might not agree on the degree that someone is unprivileged when they have to sell their labor in order to not starve or be homeless.

Only if you believe that all other forms of oppression are subordinate to class.

The poll results featured in Klein's article give lie to the notion that a Democratic candidate (including a Democratic Socialist) must cater to the same "economic anxiety" concerns as the Trump campaign, and treat working class White voters with special deference so as not to frighten them into the waiting arms of White nationalist populism.

So why shoot the messenger who heralds good news - especially when (I hope) no one here actually believes that those seeking an end to racism, sexism, heterosexism, cissexism, ableism, and other forms of oppression should "wait their turn" and stop "dividing" the workers' movement with their "identity politics"?

If the goal is to make Democratic Socialism more inclusive, concentrating on class to the exclusion of other forms of social inequality has the opposite effect - less focusing in than cropping out.

No one, to my knowledge, has specifically demanded that you reject the "all proletarian lives matter" framing - but if you jump down the throat of everyone who does reject it, who or what are you defending?

Criticism of White Socialism is not criticism of "socialism writ large."

I could use a Katie Hill right now. Actually, one of the freakiest chicks I've ever been with was a politician in another country. Wanted me to shoot up the club and come visit her abroad so she could use me for sex. Had to hit her with a "Nah" on both.

I'm pretty sure Trump consulted with Kushner who consulted with Van who consulted with Delk who then all praised Trump for the amazing First Step act.
