Via Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
"Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.
This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.
Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.
And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too)."
Why does the #DNC hate these two? Almost as if they prefer #Trump to #AOC and #Bernie

@nilsskirnir @Bellison22 The “DNC” doesn’t hate members of its own party.
The enemy is Trump. Why don’t we all focus on that instead of worrying about who likes or dislikes whom among the resistance?
@mls14 @nilsskirnir @Bellison22
Nils makes a valid point.
The DNC has acted against these two on multiple occasions.
The DNC doesn't passively hate them.
They proactively undermine them.
Because the DNC is owned by the same people who own the GOP. Billionaires.

If you want to beat Trump, you need a compelling alternative.
You can't ask people to vote Dem just because they're not trump. How did that work out in 2024?
Great points and thanks
The old adage that if you give folks a choice between #Repuke and #RepukeLite, they’ll choose Repuke almost every time.
@nilsskirnir @rzeta0 @Bellison22 Am I interpreting this correctly, that you are calling Kamala Harris “RepukeLite”?
@mls14 @nilsskirnir @rzeta0 @Bellison22
Yes, Mrs. Harris hit the road with Liz Cheney and normalized a genocide in Gaza, that's about as Repuke Light as you can get. I voted for her anyway because it was in Americans' best interest. Sadly, millions didn't, and millions more (mostly black) votes were suppressed. You don't hear dems talking about that much.
@davbram @nilsskirnir @rzeta0 @Bellison22 Yes, you are part of the solution. We might not have all gotten the candidate we wanted from our party. But we know, for the good of the country, we come together to oppose Nazis.
I disagree with you strongly on multiple aspects of your opinion of Harris, but we can work together because we both know it’s about never ever letting the GOP get a majority again.
@mls14@vivaldi.net @davbram @nilsskirnir @Bellison22
Many people like me could never vote for anyone who covers for genocide.
That is step 1 for the democrats.
Disown Israel, impose sanctions, drag Netanyahu to the ICC, and physically disarm that genocidal apartheid war criminal state. Enforce UN resolutions.
Or do the democrats stands for double standards in international and domestic law?
@rzeta0 @davbram @nilsskirnir @Bellison22 This is pure performative morality. You cannot vote in America. I’m not telling you who to vote for in the UK, because I’m not living there. You clearly don’t understand American politics (or politicians based on your very wrong takes about Harris), so don’t be surprised when nobody takes your suggestions.
@mls14 @davbram @nilsskirnir @Bellison22
Again, confidently wrong.
Many of us outside the USA ave been following US politics for decades.
Why?
Because it is the wider world that suffers from what the USA does.
Some of us have noticed your attempt to diminish the democrat's facilitating a genocide...
@rzeta0 @davbram @nilsskirnir @Bellison22 A reply-guy from the nation of Brexit and 14 straight years of Tories is telling Americans that they are “confidently wrong” about their own country, which they’ve lived in their whole lives.
You’ve got more than enough to worry about at home; stop fomenting discord and helping the Nazis in America. Because that’s the result of this kind of commentary.
@mls14 @davbram @nilsskirnir @Bellison22
Well it seems you've dragged the intellectual level of this discussion right down.
We'll let other readers draw their own conclusions.
@rzeta0 @davbram @nilsskirnir @Bellison22 Ok, so instead of admitting that the UK also has issues, the reply-guy blocks me.
It’s so easy to trash others instead of working together to solve problems. All this anger came because I dared to say we should work together. Think about who you are helping if you oppose putting our differences aside to oppose Nazis.
I love AOC and Bernie. I want this to be a chance to come together. But it’s not helpful for people to refuse to vote if they don’t get the candidate they want from their party.
We need to play the long game. Keep Democrats in power, and push them to the left during primary season. You cannot do anything if MAGA holds majorities in all 3 branches of government.
@mls14 @rzeta0 @nilsskirnir @Bellison22
In the face of all this voter suppression, a broad coalition is needed to defeat nazis politically, and to be honest I don't think Dems are capable of that. They are far more willing to capitulate to the Dumpster than they are to work with or peace activists or socialists or greens or libertarians. If there is going to be a political solution, the Trump Democrats need to go, and the DNC machinery probably needs to go too.
