The DNC cited a procedural concern, but Hogg said it is “impossible to ignore the broader context” of his criticisms.

Exactly this. Stop giving the DNC money. Whenever you can send the message to the officials. No progressive platform and change? No removal of incumbents? No money. No vote.

It isn’t _just _ on us to do something. If they too don’t wanna see the fascists win, then it’s time for them to eat humble pie and realize their policies and their positions for the past 30-40 years brought this pig to prom. They have to pass the torch.

Fascism might be defeated again but it will come at the cost of neoliberalism finally dying as well. There’s very little options of anything else working.

Stop giving the DNC money.

Nobody here gives the DNC any money. I agree that would be stupid because there are much better choices. Most of us don't give much money to politicians and usually only to a specific candidate. But if I was going to right now, I would funnel that money thru people like Sanders or AOC or Hoggs.
