Bonus genocide apologia from the comments:

To radlibs, supporting genocide is “well-reasoned logic”. You live in a horror story. Every person you walk past on the street could be a depraved ghoul who thinks torturing and murdering children is “well-reasoned logic”. Every person you walk past on the street could be a depraved ghoul who looks at the NSFL photos coming out of Gaza and calls that ”well-reasoned logic”. Just think about that for a minute. Just think about how many people you pass every day, people who can hold the door open for you, who can smile at you, who can line up at the coffee shop while browsing cute pictures of cats online, all while also happening to be depraved genocide supporters. Just think about how happy it makes them to support genocide. So incredibly happy yet so incredibly banal that the pleasure they derive from genocide becomes a fixer-upper like their morning cup of coffee. Tell me that isn’t a horror story.

    The late Glen Ford of BlackAgendaReport was calling Sanders a Dem Sheepdog when he rose to national prominence, he was absolutely correct!

    OWS was the biggest Left movement in the USA in a long time, Saunders, whether willingly or not, basically led all the anger and frustration with the current system right back to the Dems. As always the Democratic Party is the graveyard of social movements.
