Like I said, no sense of nuance.

This is the problem we have on the left, people only want perfect allies and perfect representatives, and can never have anything that's incremental or just ok. It's like dealing with a spoiled princess, nothing is ever good enough.

"Oh hey this person wanted to make their city better so they ran for office" NO THAT'S BAD THEY ARE ALL BAD AND SHOULD BERN WITH ETERNAL BERNING!

If we keep playing purity politics we'll also end up with nothing and no one.
