In reply to the discussion: The Sunrise Movement's Members Of Color Say The Group "Tokenized" And "Used" Them For Years [View all]LetMyPeopleVote
(144,919 posts)I am sorry that you are offended that I do not find your posts to be interesting or well reasoned. I do admit that I have been amused by by your posts where you made rather sad and poorly informed attacks on sources critical of Justice Democrats and its affiliates and have responded to correct the sad errors in facts contained in such posts
You claim that you disavow Just Us Democrats (I love the fact that this group's pod cast is called "Just Us" Democrats) and the sunrise movement but you are defending these groups by attacking anyone who disagrees with or is critical of these groups or their policies or tactics. That is a very amusing way of disavowing these groups. You are in effect stating that I disagree with certain groups but I will attack any sources that do not agree with the groups that I am supposedly disavowing. That is really amusing.
I live in the real world and I have been working hard to turn Texas blue. I was a delegate to the 2016 national convention which is a honor that takes years of hard work. I saw first hand the tactics used by the persons who became the founders of The Brand New Congress, Just Us Democrats, Our Revolution, the Sunrise Movement and a couple of other similar groups. I disagree with the goals and tactics of these groups and I have agreed with the several groups/sources who disagree with the goals and/or tactics of these groups. At the Convention, I saw planned stunts of booing Stacy Abrams, John Lewis and Elijah Cummings (I was warned about these planned stunts in advance by the Clinton campaign whipping infrastructure). I was at the mini riot at the Texas delegation breakfast where sanders supporters demanded that we condemn Hillary Clinton
You are consistent in attacking any groups who disagree with the tactics or policies of the Just Us Democrats, Sunrise movement, Our Revolution, Brand New Congress and other groups founded by sanders supporters. To me that mean that you are in effect supporting and approving of these tactics and/or positions. I follow a ton of different sources and I evaluate positions taken with a grain of salt. I am former college debate and as well a lawyer which means that I am skeptical of everything that I read on the internet. Here, the sources you dislike have raised good objections to the tactics and positions taken by the Sunrise Movement, Just Us Democrats, Our Revolution, Brand New Congress and other groups formed by former/current sanders supporters.
You are evidently supporting Fetterman and hate Connor Lamb. That is fine. I strongly disagree with your choices and I will be supporting real democrats who can win a contested general election. I am on Fetterman email list and his emails are really weak but funny at times. I will be donating to Connor just as I will be donating to a number of real democratic candidates who are in primaries with Just Us supported candidates. Many disagreed with Katy Porter's endorsement of Nina Turner and we are very fortunate that Nina Turner lost the Ohio 11 primary. I was so very happy to see Nina Turner lose that primary despite endorsements of Porter, AOC, Sanders, Cornel West and that Mike guy.
As for the speculation about Sanders and Russia, you do remember that Mueller did find that Russia was helping the Sanders campaign

As noted above, I am not a fan of Sanders or his campaign and I would like to see all of the evidence gathered by Mueller on Russian support for Sanders in 2016. That does not mean that I agree with the attacks you listed above.
I am amused that you think that I follow your posts or care about your posts. I skip almost all of your posts in that I do not find these posts to be interesting or based on logic or facts. I do find your poorly written and researched posts attacking sources that disagree with Just Us Democrats, Our Revolution, Sunrise Movement, Brand New Congress and other groups founded by Cenk, Waleed Shahid, Kyle Kulinksi and their ilk to be worthy of correcting given your obvious error in the facts. The fact that you are attacking groups who disagree with these people or the groups they founded amuses me. Again, I saw the tactics of these people up close in Philadelphia. You are in effect supporting groups founded by Cenk, Waleed Shahid, Kyle Kulinksi and their ilk which I find to be amusing.
You are free to support the candidates of your choice. I will not support any candidates supported by the Just Us Democrats in the primaries. I will not support the Just Us Democrat and their affiliate goal of destroying and remaking the Democratic Party.
Have fun. I had a zoom call today with one Democratic Lawyers Association and will be working to fight the GOP voter suppression bill. It will be hard but Texas will turn blue due to a ton of hard work.
