Both these guys are repeatedly making sweeping statements that lump "the radical left" all together for the purpose of rebutting the weakest form of an argument E.g. The Guastella jacobin article, "where was he for the last four years"... Well, I recall him writing a seminal piece in 2017 catalyst laying out an actual plausible strategy for socialist politics in America. While he was afaik slogging it out in the philly dsa shitshow, on the "class" side. so wtf are you mad about here, lady It's like, they make some interesting points but they're constantly overstating conclusions and their energy is all out of whack. It's not productive to write off the whole left over tenuous grasps at straws

Eg. Interesting point: Dems are not like Republicans, they love to jerk off the party establishment Wild conclusion: Therefore Bernie couldn't have been mean to Biden and this is so plainly true that the left is stupid babies for thinking it was a significant factor Good take: Negative campaigning is playing with fire esp in this primary, but Bernie probably could've gotten away with being roughly as mean to Biden as he was to HRC (Goldman sachs was 100x harsher than anything this cycle). Biden got away with being the working class dude who will protect SS and Medicare.

Finally: "fell apart under close scrutiny" is a funny way to say "withered on the vine when liberal media undermined her with a barrage of irrelevant questions and their readership didn't want to believe it anyway, even tho they were all-in on a less-well-evidenced Kavanagh accusation months ago" Unless there's something else big that's come out after the giant politico article? Cuz dude, asking whether someone lied to their landlord is not actually a good way of assessing credibility. And this came out in March, but the left is so shitty for only bringing it up at the end? This is incoherent!
