Expose the trolls- Douchebag Debbie Lusignan "sane progressive" gives Breitbart interviews

She is either a russian troll or a fucking useful idiot to the far right- Expose them so they can do no more damage-


Oh, and apparently she likes " consortium news " based on her twitter. LOL- Real digger of truth there







Green ‘Bernie or Bust’ Activist Says Clinton 1994 Crime Bill Was a ‘Racist Deed’

“Donald Trump is not politically correct, “Bernie or Bust” activist Debbie Lusignan said in a video interview with Breitbart Texas. “He says racist things” but she found great fault in the creation of the “prison bill” that incarcerated so many black Americans

Breitbart Texas asked Lusignan to describe what she was doing with the “Bernie or Bust” movement and to tell viewers why the Green Party is the place where Bernie supporters need to land.

“I was involved with Bernie or Bust mainly because it is not about loyalty to a political party for me, it’s about principle over Party, and policy over politician.”

She said neither of the two major Party candidates are viable now that Bernie is out of the race. “So Jill Stein is really the only person within this election who now represents my interests,” she explained.

I've watched some of her videos because they were linked by people I follow on social media, and while some of them have good points, to my taste she draws too much unwarranted equivalence between Democrats and Republicans and between the the left and the right (unwarranted because the central feature of the left is the democratization of power and the central feature of the right is the concentration of power). She also tries to discourage her viewers from political participation and voting, and doesn't express any concrete political opinions except blanket condemnation of the power that be. Her call to action is to basically sit on your hands and wait for the great awakening (and who knows how long that will take). Pay attention and don't buy in, but do nothing. I don't know enough to say if political disempowerment is her goal or just an unintended consequence, but it is a consequence making her criticisms of government apolitical and nonpartisan and totally outside the power of organized political action.
