| 1638432678897942528 | @yosemitehker @BenSpielberg @whstancil If folks are committed to building a wide-reaching and impactful progressive movement, then MOVE ON and work with/support another leading progressive voice alongside Sanders. The delusional blame game 3 years out is tbh pathetic, and not the stuff solid movements are made of. | 0 |
| 1638597445188829184 | @BeLong22811414 @whstancil @BenSpielberg And what's it gotten her. They're pointing to some staffers that got admin gigs but there's no concrete gains from that, and she herself has basically been marginalized out of relevance. Between 16 & 20, she effectively ended her own career trajectory and wrecked her reputation | 0 |
| 1638596983794401289 | @BeLong22811414 @whstancil @BenSpielberg There was also the point where not even just doing poorly, her campaign was literally broke and she violated one of her core promises by taking a pile of money from a superpac (which turned out to be a single donor) just to stay in the race as long as she did. | 0 |
| 1638587204988542987 | @BenSpielberg @whstancil He’s not going to expound on that because 1) it will be thoroughly fallacious 2) it will be relentlessly picked apart by people who know better | 0 |
| 1638575699777794049 | @BeLong22811414 @whstancil @BenSpielberg Bernie is a known misogynist | 0 |
| 1638573687992463363 | @whstancil @BenSpielberg Her lying about Bernie allegedly making 'sexist' remarks at a dinner that took place a whole 13 months prior reveals a lot of problems with Warren's 'values.' She was weaponizing identity politics because she was behind in the polls going into Iowa. Plain and simple. | 0 |
| 1638566009987649538 | @whstancil @BenSpielberg You've gone far beyond subtext and are just tilting at windmills. | 0 |
| 1638564625146077185 | @whstancil @BenSpielberg Inserting your own feelings is not "reading subtext". | 0 |
| 1638529315955417089 | @whstancil @BenSpielberg So you agree that you’re arguing with something Sanders didn’t actually write. | 0 |

| 1638396118584430592 | @BenSpielberg @whstancil 100% agreed. I enthusiastically supported both of their campaigns. It was a huge disappointment when it she didn’t drop out in the same way the moderates did for Biden. | 10 |
| 1638383060390379520 | @BenSpielberg No, that's absurd. Failing to simply drop and endorse Bernie the moment he requests it does not reveal some problem with Warren's values. | 10 |
| 1638474432153808898 | @acmiceli @yosemitehker @BenSpielberg @whstancil No one in this thread has said it was Warren's fault. Bernie hasn't either. But this is the imaginary cohort w whom you and Stancil want to argue. | 9 |
| 1638485667440365568 | @acmiceli @yosemitehker @BenSpielberg @whstancil ok, why didn't warren move on and work with the sanders campaign? or does this only work one way | 7 |
| 1638380745965068288 | @BenSpielberg well I'm capable of reading subtext, you see | 7 |
| 1638564625146077185 | @whstancil @BenSpielberg Inserting your own feelings is not "reading subtext". | 3 |
| 1637107357837656065 | @BenSpielberg yes, and the older you get and the more the ‘specific somethings’ add up, that becomes a more difficult position to hold. but the fact will always remain that we are workers—and THEY, who lock arms w/CEOs are not. | 3 |
| 1638428262404886529 | @yosemitehker @BenSpielberg @whstancil The it-was-Warren's-fault arguments are nuts, riddled with misogyny and a sense of entitlement — not to mention a lack of accountability for Sanders blowing his shot at building a campaign that could win at the national level. Thanks, @whstancil for disputing this ongoing BS... | 3 |
| 1638999096240537600 | @BenSpielberg @davidsirota I appreciate David for trying to reform the existing system. Far too many on left and right have given up and just want to overthrow the system (with no concern about what comes next). Cheers to David! | 2 |
| 1638070942055235585 | @BenSpielberg @HowardSchultz I’m pretty sure the world could fill the tens of thousands of store fronts currently occupied by Starbucks given half a chance | 2 |
