Reading about a progressive organization


A progressive organization questions in my mind already - is this group calling itself progressive and is it really an organization? Can’t imagine anyone I trust calling themselves progressive right now since that word has been hijacked by Sanders and clones, misused and abused, and is therefore meaningless to me   is plunging itself plunging itself is such an odd choice of words – plunge is a quick move that mostly seems negative to me, like under duress or in fear so I sense desperation or thoughtlessness into the presidential campaign, for real?! This ‘progressive organization’ is ‘plunging’ into a presidential campaign that started the day after the horrific election stolen from Hillary three years ago? Surely, they’ve been working frantically to have that election invalidated and, finally, after all that hard work, realize they can’t get this done so now they have to do something DESPERATE like PLUNGE – my heart is racing because this must be great news unveiling plans to spend $75 million on digital advertising to counter President Trump’s early spending advantage in key 2020 battleground states. WTAF – my heart dropped and my head is spending. 2020 battleground states? Digital advertising? Ads that Twitter will refuse to run so that Trump’s news agencies (ALL NETWORK AND CABLE NEWS, as well as all of his fake news pimps like Breitbart, et al, can have all of the space to ‘report’ Trump’s messages? Like that? And where, if they don’t manage to shutdown Facebook, they’ll be insisting that Zuckerberg spends billions more dollars fact-checking all of these ads after the right-wing trolls REPORT EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM? For real? This isn’t feeling like such a great idea anymore but I haven’t read enough . . .  let’s keep going
The effort, aww, shit – it’s just an effort? Not a bold, fool-proof plan?  by a nonprofit group called Acronym and an affiliated political action committee, HOLD ON JUST A LONG MINUTE OR TWO – progressives hate PACs, remember? They will have to condemn their own damned selves? This seems weird as hell to me. But how tricky to use the name Acronym instead of Anonymous.  is an outgrowth of growing concern by some Democratic officials We have officials? Can we name them? Better yet, can we identify Democratic non-officials, like Sanders and clones who want to destroy the party in the name of progress?  That would make me smile.  that Mr. Trump could build an insurmountable edge in those key states through massive early advertising efforts. Damn, my mind wanders. Remember those couple of years before Mr. Sanders  (of #TeamSanderstrumPutin) announced he was running in 2016 when he flooded the internet with all of those fake ‘draft Bernie’, ‘would you vote for Bernie’, ‘Bernie created everything progressive and don’t believe your memory or history when it tells you that he has stood in the way of progress and that all progress actually made was MADE BY REAL DEMOCRATS that he criticizes and wants to destroy’ -- and the progressive organizations (one using multiple names) that pimped meme after meme after meme and petition after petition after petition, mostly based on false premises, to totally saturate the internet with ‘free’ ads Mr. Trump has spent more than $26 million so far nationally just on Facebook and Google, ahh  Google/YouTube, where right-wing will always be able to buy themselves to the top – where I can enter MY NAME, the TITLE OF MY ARTICLE, and get 10,000 returns of things other than MY ARTICLE WITH MY NAME?  That Google? And Facebook that they pretend they want to fact check when they don’t even face check their own shit?  Seriously?   more than the four top-polling Democrats — Joseph R. Biden Jr., Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg — have spent in total on those platforms. And there we have it – THE MEDIA’S TOP FOUR – not the top four of THE PEOPLE.
“The gun The gun?!  WTF is he talking about? on this general election does not start when we have a nominee; it started months ago,” said David Plouffe, who managed Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign and was a key adviser to him in 2012, and who recently joined Acronym’s board. ”If the things that need to happen don’t happen in these battleground states between now and May or June, our nominee will never have time to catch up.“ Let’s just talk about battleground states. Why are we allowing these first four states that don’t resemble reality so much power? Why aren’t we insisting that all primaries be held on the same day, and letting ALL OF THE PEOPLE SPEAK? Why isn’t someone progressive enough to think about what would actually be best for the party/country/world?
