   People who still insist Democrats are "too far left" and need to "moderate" more just want them to throw Black people and LGBT+ people and women under the bus.

   That's it. That's all it means.

   The hard right turn on immigration signals a willingness that they will continue trying to exploit.

     @gwynnion thanks again for saying what needs to be said about any of the "too far left" talk.

     @gwynnion I saw someone on facebook yesterday say they think the dems should return to the center (the person was pro-Trump) and my reponse was they are already center right. But I didn't get a response back; most likely they blocked me.

     The thing is, Democrats have been asymptotically approaching "the center" for my entire life but never -- quite -- making -- it -- because what these people really want is for Democrats to be Republicans. Not even "friends with Liz Cheney" Republicans either but like full on white hood wearing motherfuckers.

     This is a white male supremacist power play and it makes me sick that white Democrats have played along for their approval for so long.

     @smutek "The far left" is a favorite Democratic punching bag because it means whatever they want it to mean, the same as when Republicans use it. Saying it basically signals: "I'm a conservative!"

     @gwynnion I watched an MSNBC video on YouTube earlier today with Andrea Mitchell interviewing Ritchie Torres, where Torres blames "the far left" for the Democratic loss. Immediate thumbs down.

     @gwynnion
     Democrats and being leftist, a good joke, especially in the context of them supplying weapons to Israel to attack civilians

     Neither party is left-wing, both of them don't give a damn about you, but the democrats pretend that you care about them and use beautiful promises to make people believe them
