    We criticize them for vastly different things though… The right says they’re communists and we say they’re not communist enough (or at all, really).

      Problem is that not all critique is equal. Someone can just barf in “dems suck” into an online argument, and that won’t tell which side of the aisle they’re on…

        in a discussion about why democrats suck, talking about, republicans are not relevant at all. if someone makes a valid argument it does not matter if they are a republican.

        “the dnc only back establishment candidates and will actively hurt progressive candidates even to ensure a republican victory” has nothing to do with republicans, and you can assume that i would make the same complaint of the republicans
