re: #177 Targetpractice

Here’s the long and short of it, Bros: If you don’t like the way the party operates, go somewhere else. Go to the Green Party, go to the Libertarian Party, create your own little piss-ant party with blackjack and hookers.

But don’t sit there, continually kick the party in the balls about how it isn’t a perfect utopia of “progressive” beliefs, tear down any party member who is not “pure” enough for you, and then argue after electoral losses that we’re to blame for your shitty attitudes.

I coined my own term for these purists: the Progressive Purity Police, or PPP (not to be confused with the polling outfit). They failed to get their leader nominated as the 2016 presidential candidate of the Democratic Party they so despise, so they’re now trying to stage a coup of the party.

True, the Party needs some reform…but this is entirely the wrong way to go about it.
