Watching TYT and The Jimmy Dore show, damn. I find it odd how the left isn't able to understand the position they're in. The party has been hijacked by the progressive movement, or as most are now calling the alt left. What the progressive alt left doesn't fully comprehend just how much of their platform the media and mainstream democratic party has accepted, and pushed. The examples (at minimum) of the appeasement by traditional liberals toward hard core alt left progressives is stunning
1. Immigration.
2. Gay rights = Gender "equality" and "Identity".
3. Government interference.
4. Capatlism. Liberals have always believed in a somewhat irresponsible fiscal vision for the nation, but never to the level of outright socialism where the heads of the party now openly support. Never have democrats openly supported the destruction of capitalism and our way of life.
And there are many, many other examples that could go on. My theory as to why these alt left fanatical leftist like Dore, TYT etc are pushing the narrative that "it's their turn" to rule the democrats, is because they don't want people to realize
they have been ruling the democrats, at least socially and somewhat fiscally; and it's failed so miserably that the only thing left to do is accept it, or deny it. Better yet, Jimmy Dore is going to take the approach that the alt left
hasn't even had a turn yet. Yea right.
Hillary was shoved through so Bernie couldn't win the primary because the traditional liberal base of the democrats knew Bernie would have been shredded on substance the moment he won the nomination. Hillary was really their only shot.
Fun watching the media completely ignore the alt left takeover of the democratic party, while not shutting up for 8 years about the split within the republican party. Liberals need to start drawing a stark difference between themselves and the progressive alt left. What was once believed a safe play by coalescing every leftist ideology together as one, is no longer feasible even though the media won't tell you that. Either define the difference or be included in with their destruction. Have a few morals, at least one or two, and take your damn party back.
