The "Purity Test" Lie

[muriel_volestrangler]

11. No, it's often just about "the Democrats". He does not have a single good thing to say

about any Democrat. Maybe you just half-listened and assumed it would be something OK for DU to think. It isn't.

Here's the core of this bastard's message - he can fuck right off:

"the real purity politics present in the Democratic party is near hegemony on Israel. uh its substantial agreement with the GOP on immigration, its fullthroated support of most military spending, its willingness to militarize the police in urban centers and to send them in to crack the heads of student protesters, its commitment to moneyball reformism, its commitment to resisting economic populism or never substantially challenging the oil economy, and in its near uniform habit of kicking the climate can down the road."

Fuck him and anyone who thinks he's OK.
