Not to mention the audacity of telling people they have the power to change the system and take it back from the oligarchs and corporations and wanting to create a movement to change the system from within! To eliminate the root causes of despair and grievance that led to Trump. The nerve!

And of course those Reddit comments are infinitely worse than killing a Bill to expand Maine's Indigenous tribes' sovereignty or one creating a new top tax bracket. Or pissing off unions so much they tried to publicly draft a candidate to primary her.

/S

Heaven help us indeed.
