The circular firing squad so endemic to the Left is deeply destructive, leaving us battered and weakened before the Right even takes a shot. Nothing plays into the hands of our opponents more than our viciousness towards one another.

According to Gandhi’s philosophy of nonviolence, the end is inherent in the means. If we’re hateful to each other now, we’re not going to be able to all come together in some kumbaya effort once the nominee is chosen. Anger weakens us.We can practice respectful disagreement now.

"If you think any of this wonkiness is going to deal with this dark psychic force of the collectivized hatred that this president is bringing up in this country, then I'm afraid that the Democrats are going to see some very dark days" - @marwilliamson they say hindsight is 2020

It's not a circular firing squad when one person has an open hand out and the other brings a fist.

Not much people have the wisdom as that of @marwilliamson ..sad that the media and celebrities always tries to mock her than to understand and promote her thoughts.

@marwilliamson the movement is built on having compassion for those who have received none for decades from the two parties. It's just disappointing to be gaslit and derailed by those you once considered an ally.

Yes, @ewarren played into it, capitalizing on the moment, and everyone including Bernie was not allowed to say a thing or correct the record. Ppl are attacking Bernie for even denying the claim. We're living in non logic land.

I really like your beliefs and compassion. I agree on the anger and fighting. We need to bring people together even the Republicans we are all Americans I believe Andrew Yang humanity first campaign is just that. #yang2020 I don't want to be angry every day. I want to go forward

Or maybe understanding that the neoliberals are the TRUE enemy of the progressive left would be the best way forward. The Republicans are actually EASY to beat. The neoliberals are just constantly IN THE WAY. #neverWARren
