They saw a candidate they could sell and make money off of. That’s it. They saw a product and an opportunity to profit, and everyone else got screwed. Every shred of talk about a movement was branding.

Need to be super clear to folks that there is a growing class of “progressive” political consultants with elite backgrounds that are cashing in on antiestablishment sentiment amongst voters, and their payday isn’t at all about your concerns.

in fairness, Dodger Stadium was built by forcibly dislocating a working-class Hispanic community in Chavez Ravine and eradicating their homes to appease a rich New Yorker, so the Dodgers aren't entirely wrong about following tradition

it once again bears repeating: that platner is even a candidate is because this guy, who was run out of Pittsburgh for recruiting/managing multiple candidates accused of DV/SA, who himself has allegations against him, recruited platner he should be blacklisted until the end of time

if the “purity test” of “not a rapist” is “killing the left” I’m cool with letting it fucking die, actually. I think what it actually does is sort out the small but vocal minority of people who claim to be on the “left” but think racism is over/will be solved by raising minimum wage.

The consultants who bailed him out after his original team left should take a big old break from politics, too. No vetting, gaslighting supporters, trashing other staff and trying to walk the line on SA denial while sounding progressive. Gross.

Reminder: there is no excuse for smearing women who come forward about sexual assault. It doesn’t make you righteous because you agree politically with the abuser.
