    I’m actually starting to think this guy might literally be an op to discredit “progressives” and we’re going to need a new, much stronger version of fell-for-it-again-award for the “progressives” who fall for it by supporting him.

    But more likely “progressives” in Amerikkka are actually this bad and intelligence agencies don’t need to run ops to turn them into nazi defenders for the small possibility of social democratic reform.

      I think it is long past time to write an epitaph for the “Progressive Movement.” “Long arc of history” libs, epitomized by the Congressional Progressive Caucus. There is no need for the intelligence agencies to run ops when these people gladly elect billionaires, fighter pilots and intelligence agents in an effort to out-do the chuds demonstrating loyalty to the empire as an electoral strategy.

        i think when people discuss oldish-school “progressivism” in the future, they will consider the proud Iraq veteran with a giant Nazi tattoo calling himself a progressive as the point at which the movement was definitely 1000% dead

        Personally, I think it’s more accurate to say Graham Platner dug up progressivism’s dessicated corpse and is puppeteering it around with sickening glee
