I completely agree with all of this. Although, there are some outliers within the Democrat ranks (aside from the obvious ones who are all progressive’s). I’ve been watching people like Jamie Raskin, Mark Kelly, Chris Murphy, Adam Schiff, Elizabeth Warren, and even Chuck Schumer (from time to time, and yes, fuck him for playing politics with crucial votes, not a fan of his) consistently fight against the oligarchy in various committee hearings and on the senate floor. I really think people would have a completely different perspective on a lot of sitting dems if they would watch cspan every now and then. That’s not an exhaustive list, and again, it doesn’t include any of the progressive caucus, who are all badasses. The reason I asked is because I’m growing increasingly tired of the narrative that all dems are seat warmers. A lot of them have been fighting a huge raging oligarchy monster for years and, IMO, that pushback is a growing movement. We just need more people to see that there ARE dem’s fighting for working class rights and there IS strong messaging coming from a good chunk of the democrat party. We need to stop lumping them all together and give more support to the ones who are actually fighting for us.
