today’s progressive liberal Democrats are the authoritarians and segregationists that i, a progressive liberal Democrat, have warned people about my whole life
Replying to @marwilliamson
I want more progressive Democrats too, but when you were growing up conservative segregationist Dixiecrats dominated the South.
Replying to @marwilliamson
That makes me think like you kept hearing these little statements from politicians the country is moving more to the right we need to be a center-right country. The country was not moving more to the right but the corporate strategy was so if they want that corporate money.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Agreed. Just as today’s Progressive Democratics were called card carrying pinkos when I was growing up.
Replying to @marwilliamson
There is nothing moderate about them
Replying to @marwilliamson
"Moderate Democrats" = virtually all Democrats. On top of that, these Democrats are more authoritarian than Republicans ever were.
