I am willing to move forward with centrists as coalition partners with the left-- only because neither of us can win alone, but after this election they have to come to the table as coalition partners, NOT leaders.

Progressives need to leave the Democratic party. Voters know that neither progressives or centrists have the numbres to win alone, but Progressives have popular issues to run on, and centrists have nothing but hisorical momentum thats stopped pretty cold at the moment. All the "anyone but trump" people will still be there next election (assuming there is one) and they will vote for leadership that is promising good things. And progressives will win. So I say lets formally split, and if the centrists come along theyd be welcome, and if they'd rather go it alone then they should get used to losing because they have no other future.

For long term political goals, I'm fully on board with you.

For immediate resistance to fascism, we are already all on the same side, or so I hope.

No, we're not. centrists supported a genocidal monsters for a candidate and president. there is no 'same' side with that for me. you're welcome to redeem yourself in a similar manner to the trumpettes. I simply will not vote for such monsters. You're welcome to put that into your 'lesser evil' equation.

Lol, oh, hai again. Did you forget you already said this in another reply to me in this very thread. Guess I can just re-use my reply from there huh?

Oh, okay, well I just checked with all the "Vote Blue No Matter Who" people, and everyone repented. Crazy I know, but every single one. Completed the repentance ceremony and everything. So we can all agree to work towards the greater good now right?

What's that? Still no!? Is that because you were never arguing in good faith? Wow, I sure am shocked.

Look friend, I'm not interested in dying on pointless hills. Not while there are still things worth fighting for. If you have found your hill, I wish you luck holding it.
