    While Progressive Left largely backed candidates other than Biden during the 2020 Democratic primaries, they overwhelmingly voted for him in the general election and now solidly support him.

    This is your source, correct?

      It is!

      Are you suggesting that the progressives did a 180 on their priorities and hatred for Trump? Because that seems like a ridiculous thing to believe about the most engaged segment of Democratic voters.

      Those must be some pretty powerful feelings you’ve got.

        You’re talking about 2020.

        Why did people vote for both AOC and Trump on the same ticket?

        A good number of the progressives are also accelerationists.

          Let’s see those numbers!

          Unless you don’t have them?

          I don’t care about feelings, I want numbers.

          Also, are you saying that everyone who voted for AOC was a progressive? Because that seems wrong if they also voted for a fascist. How do you separate out the people who aren’t progressives and voted for AOC? Feelings?

          Surely there’s a non-zero number of them. Why are you counting them as progressives who crossed over instead of MAGA who did?

              Yes, we’ve established that Harris lost. Remember when we did that?

              You’ve yet to demonstrate your claim that it was the progressives fault though despite your constant bitching about it. It sure seems like you’re incapable of doing so or you’d have done it already.

              What makes you think it was the progressives’ doing and not Biden refusing to step aside to have a real primary? Oh that’s right: you’d never blame the center for their incompetence.
