    Ahhh… Wat? How is it neoliberal propaganda to expect a public postmortem? Why would its release be damaging?

    What evidence is there that neolibs don’t control the DNC anymore? Shumer is still minority leader. Most Dems are still backed by AIPAC… What meaningful change has occurred?

      How is it neoliberal propaganda to expect a public postmortem?

      Because it’s literally never been publicly released before…

      Because Martin said he’d release it internally at the DNC, like every other post election…

      Why would its release be damaging?

      I honestly think it should be released, but the damaging aspect is it’s about Joe Biden’s choosen chair did to try and for e Biden and Kamala on us.

      The DNC chair is a dictatorship, acting like the new one is responsible for the old one is as dumb as blaming a hypothetical Dem president in 2029 for what trump is doing in 2026…

      What evidence is there that neolibs don’t control the DNC anymore?

      That the voting members picked the chair of Minnesota who spent a decade running fair primaries and turned it from purple to one of the most progressive states in the country… Simply by not fighting progressives.

      That he’s been dumping the VF money on state parties for over a year, and a neoliberal.would never do that because they want to save it all for the presidential…

      Shumer is still minority leader.

      Because that vote was two weeks before the DNC chair, so at the time the neoliberal threat of bankrupting a state party for not voting Schumer/Jeffries was valid, neoliberals had done it before and will do it again if they regain the DNC.

      Most Dems are still backed by AIPAC…

      They were protected by a biased DNC, they no longer are. Go work on primary campaigns against them, but youre running out of time for this cycle. But being “non biased” means the DNC isn’t kicking out shitty neoliberals, that’s literally what primaries are for…

      What meaningful change has occurred?

      You do keep hearing about Dems “over performing”, right?

      That’s because state parties have the funds the neoliberals were hoarding.

      Like, the problem here is you want a DNC that’s biased for us. And Martin wants a DNC that does what it’s supposed to, which honestly isn’t really anything. The Dem party should be structured from bottom-up, and Martin is giving that “power” back to the state parties.

      The big change isn’t that we get a progressive bias, the big change is no one is holding them down anymore.

      That’s all it takes, and if a Dem wins in 2028, then they name the next DNC chair.

      So if you don’t like Martin, support the furtherest left candidate in the Dem primary, and hope they appoint an explicitly progressing chair.

      We just completed a step that took 30 fucking years, we can wait another 2.

      All depressing turnout in Dem primaries does, is help neoliberal like Kamala or Newsom. If they name a chair we’re fucked.

      Edit:

      Almost forgot, he codified DNC regulations preventing anyone from endorsing or getting involved in down ballot primaries…

      Which, if you’ve paid attention the last 30 years or so, has been the main problem people have had with the DNC.

      The correction isnt “biased, but for us” because that still wouldn’t be unbiased
