Nina Turner is literally getting endorsements because she backpedaled on her 'progressivism' so I don't know what that has to do with this thread.

Who cares? Its an election. Its literally what every single smart candidate does. That is, to present yourself as an open-minded individual who's willing to LISTEN to all sides. That's what gets you the independent VOTES to get into office. How is it that people still don't understand that very basic tactic by now? That's just fukking crazy to me.

At the end of the day she's still a progressive. That's all that matters to me.

Backpedals on her 'progressive' values to win an election, to the point where she's only getting endorsements because she backpedaled: "b-b-but it's ok! who cares? she's still a progressive at heart! *Agatha Wink*"

fukk outta here. Let any centrist pull some shyt like that and they get universally torched. I don't know why people are so quick to :cape: for these grifters just because they throw out a couple three-letter acronyms a few times, that they don't even stand by. :francis:

You can't actually back-peddle until the moment you literally back-peddle implementation of policies. And election cycle is the opportunity to present how you will approach implementing your policies. It doesn't necessarily mean you're straight up changing your viewpoint. But this kind of nuance isn't understood by everyone.

Her roots are from a progressive point. But somehow democrats who've been moderates (damn near conservatives) there whole careers are a better option??

Yea that's just idiotic. FOH. :mjlol:

Her politics are way more palpable to me so taking a chance with a 'leftist' even a shyt one is preferable to a corporatist democrat or republican, we need the numbers, she has momentum.

I figured you wouldn't have a decent response. You clearly are clueless on how politics work in America.

I scrolled past and didn't respond to this line earlier. This is a clear example of your lack of political knowledge.......Centrists don't need to "back-peddle" as you call it. They are already political fence straddlers. It's literally the nature of being a centrist. They are already in the middle of the political spectrum.

It takes real courage to pick a side and real intelligence and maturity to know how to present your viewpoints for the larger audience (not just your progressive supporters). Centrists dont have this limitation as they tend to check off boxes from both sides of the political spectrum. It's literally safer & easier to be a centrist politically which means you're not held to account as much as people who pick a side.

Stop it. If your argument is that she's still better than any centrist, just say that. But don't come in here with this BS like, "Oh no,b-b-but she's not backpedaling, she just saying she's backpedaling, but she's not backpedaling until she's actually backpedaling, and it's all just 4d chess that only a few people get!"

And if you're just a moderate/centrist. You should just say that. Because if that's true, that means you don't support her based on POLICY, not any so-called "back-tracking".....in fact, that "back-tracking" should appeal to you if you feel her progressive policies are too far left.

Either way, it makes 0 sense to support a centrist over a progressive if you in fact are a progressive.

You come across as disingenuous. Typical for centrists.

They're not even trying to make sense. Nina Turner, a union busting slumlord lobbyist who has tried to abandon or downplay her own policy views to get endorsements and appeal to a heavily pro-Biden district... and you're a centrist if you call it out. :dwillhuh:

But Nina Turner is a real progressive despite not even being willing to stand behind it because... she said she was a few times.

This is exactly what I'm talking about. Pass whatever RNG purity test they pretend to care about this week and the 'left' doesn't GAF what kind of grift you're on.
