@FranceskaMann@freeradical.zone I'm not sure who you're actually talking about. I'm pretty disgusted with most of the DNC leadership, but am quite hopeful about AOC, Ilhan Omar, Warren, Mamdani, et al. I think they are as good as we will ever get for politicians who can actually win elections in the USA. Those are the "young turks" I referred to. If you have better candidates, I'm quite interested. We need as may actual progressives as we can get, either to split the DNC or take it over and pull it in a reasonable direction.
So far you've had lots of criticism of unnamed politicians. I think we probably agree on most of that. I haven't heard any suggestions for what you want to see happen, instead.

@guyjantic@infosec.exchange That's the Squad. The Young Turks is The Online News Show with Cenk Uygur & Ana Kasparian. TYT signed a contract with Polymarket, owned by billionaire far right scumbag Peter Thiel. Ergo my disdain. A green new deal, M4A & tax billionaires out of existance is what I want. I want to see news that shows jet fuel consumption of the billionaire class alongside the climate catastrophes. I want a lot of things.
