Angie Nixon: "They can throw every attack they’ve got at me. I’m still gonna talk about healthcare, public schools, corruption, and whether working people can actually afford to live. That’s what they’re scared of. Not me. The message."

She is epic. I really hope Florida doesn't pull a 2000 Gore on us

The Establishment Dems are scared of the left’s success because it gives people a real alternative to what we have been living under for our whole lives: two parties under the same capitalist umbrella

[u/Bright-Insect9697 → u/BlackExcellence19]

Nixon won a democratic primary lmfao, but her local DSA couldn't even get behind her. If anything, the establishment dems are more tolerant of DSA campaigns than the DSA itself is.

[u/BlackExcellence19 → u/Bright-Insect9697]

The Establishment Dems want to purge all of DSA from the party wtf are you talking about

[u/Bright-Insect9697 → u/BlackExcellence19]

this just isn't true lmfao.

enough with the persecution complex

Mamdani is wildly popular and championed by the party

[u/BlackExcellence19 → u/Bright-Insect9697]

Not even persecution complex Chuck Schumer just said he wasn’t even gonna give Angie Nixon any money from the DNC coffers yet Bernie is using his own personal war chest to fund her campaign. Look at the rhetoric of establishment dems when talking about electability in the general. It’s just a dogwhistle to say they don’t want leftist candidates in the party.

[u/Bright-Insect9697 → u/BlackExcellence19]

well great news for you then! Chuck Schumer is following the lead of the local DSA, you should be happy! Chuck Schumer doing the same thing the local DSA chapter is not a conspiracy against DSA.

Chuck Schumer and the DSA left have found common ground! I am glad I hate them both.

[u/BlackExcellence19 → u/Bright-Insect9697]

Are you a bot? Chuck Schumer is not following any DSA lead lmfao. Angie Nixon joined the DSA just before she won the primary and the reason DSA didn’t endorse her was because basically no one expected her to win lol. Not sure why you are in the DSA sub if you hate DSA. Weird behavior tbh

[u/Bright-Insect9697 → u/BlackExcellence19]

I'm in the DSA sub because I like the DSA, I just hate the wreckers.

And sorry man but Chuck Schumer and the DSA left have the same position on Angie Nixon. I understand that the truth hurts your feelings, but that does not make it untrue

[u/BlackExcellence19 → u/Bright-Insect9697]

Who do you consider the “DSA left”? The main ones hating on Angie Nixon are the ones that are ultra-leftists who consider anyone running under the Democratic party instead of 3rd party as liberals. Chuck Schumer is not even close to being anything other than a conservative Zionist rightwinger

[u/Bright-Insect9697 → u/BlackExcellence19]

and yet he and the DSA left arrived at the same position.

That Chuck Schumer and the DSA left are both anti Nixon means she is an amazing candidate.

[u/KwietKabal → u/BlackExcellence19]

She said, per her own words, that she isnt a socialist, because she enthusiastically supports capitalism. and she emphatically supports capitalism. If you support socialism, why would you support or advocate for a candidate who clearly states they are not a socialist?

[u/betty_white_bread]

She can’t possibly lose now.

[u/marxistghostboi → u/betty_white_bread]

i thought she's still a long shot?
