Just because you have to suddenly pretend that they’re not the most emblematic members of your wing of the party, that doesn’t mean you have to gaslight.
They represent the right flank of the democratic party. They’re centrists.
The right flank of the Democratic party is just right wing. Not central. Their policy stances are not middle of the road, they’re self enriching and aligned withbig pharma and a coal industries
So why do we let them run the party?
They don’t. But being the squeaky wheel in one party in a two party system where the other party is hellbent on blocking anything their opposition wants, regardless of what it is, gives you a lot of leverage.
If they don’t, did Build Back Better just kill itself, one piece at a time, over the course of months?
I’m not sure how to dumb this down any more for you …
Condescension: from people who like the status quo but can’t defend it.
Just someone who understands what words mean.
Well, when manchin singlehandedly did what you wanted and killed Build Back Better for you, he was running the party.
You love it but can’t admit it, so you get condescending instead. Enjoy watching the poor people you hate suffer.
It isn’t gaslighting to point out that you’re using a word wrong.
