I’ve read it. It’s the same bullshit all the other Democrats pandering to the progressives have. AOC, no weapons for Israel, except defensive weapons! Biden, I’m very progressive, but here’s a crime bill! Harris, I’m totally different, but I wouldn’t change anything Biden did and do it exactly the same way! Obama, change is possible, but actually here’s a massive bailout to the banks and Libya’s a slave market now!
It’s all designed to bring you back into the fold. Platitudes and campaign promises are useless. He’s going to make everyone feel so much better when he gets into office and then he’s going to sliiiiide to the right clap clap sliiiide to the right clap clap. How could he not given his fundamentally reactionary background, economic interests, and relationships.

There was an interview posted just a bit ago that actually addresses those concerns. lemmy.zip/post/65885461 Specifically, his response to the interviewer asking about him getting to DC and not being effective. In summary, he is not just looking to empower himself, he’s looking to empower the working class as a whole. He is attempting to organize and build the power of normal people by uniting them and enabling them to better pressure ALL politicians. He is building a network who is ready to fight against the billionaires and he is under no illusions that he can do it alone.
