Is there a new meme about Socialist Dem or Dem Socialists? I missed the memo. Can someone plz let me

[Madam45for2923]

know!! Much appreciated!

We just had a nice BLUE WAVE on election night a few days ago ...but am seeing people giving credit to "another party"? WTH?

Is it a 3rd party? Is it the Greens? Are we now telling people vote 3rd party in DU? (I hope not!)

Are they the pure branch? If so are they proposing economic justice and social not so much?

Or is it the other way around? But still pure?

Pure one way but not the other?

Are they friends of DEMS? Do they wish us well?

I love my DEM party and I really want to know!

Inquiring minds wanna get on with the memo that seems to be going around!

[Madam45for2923]

1. DEMS FTW!

[Eliot Rosewater]

2. I admire your bravery. Openly supporting the Democratic Party , WOW!

Openly calling out those who will work AGAINST the party

WOW

I will watch in admiration.

[Madam45for2923]

3. Of course I will! Always! Nothing gonna catch me & my/our party unawares!

[greeny2323]

4. It's nonsense

The Democratic party won bigly. People voting for all the D's.

[Madam45for2923]

5. Feels like there's an effort to pass a meme with different information. People are even congratulat

congratulating themselves in front of us.

Me thinks there needs to be some 'splaining.

[lunamagica]

6. IKR? some are taking credit for the huge DEMOCRATIC PARTY win

[Madam45for2923]

7. Some people making a point, a huge to-do & congratulating themselves in front of us! What the ...

[lapucelle]

10. The DSA refused to endorse the Democratic nominee in 2016.

[Control-Z]

19. Gawd, I feel stupid for asking.

DSA?

[Madam45for2923]

21. I deleted it was DFA that chose to announce non-endorsement of Northam just in time for the election

8. Democratic Socialists of America is an organization,

not a political party. If you'd like to be a member, you have to give them money.

[Hekate]

9. The OP just below yours is by a guy who is very dedicated to the Socialist cause...

But I'm sure he caucuses with us, since he's been here forever

[NCTraveler]

11. However you want to word it...

There are some Democratic Socialists out there who proudly proudly place their stake in the Democratic Party. They are far and few between but they are out there. They are often referred to as Democrats by those without a negative agenda. Welcome them with open arms. They didn’t just join the party to show up they are here to make sausage. Some being mentioned are staunch Democrats. We should push for more of them in viable areas.

[Madam45for2923]

14. OK. Did they endorse the Democratic nominee in 2016?

[NCTraveler]

17. I dont know. Never heard of her.

Somewhat important if endorsing.

I think there might be a little bs here. This individual is very pro-capitalism with social leanings in other areas, overall. They were endorsed by the Democratic Socialists of America.

[David__77]

12. There are socialist and non-socialist Democrats.

I think that’s good.

[delisen]

15. Inside every Dem 2017 victory is a hyphenated

progressive-something Energizer which is responsible for all Dem wins.

So send campaign donations to the progressive-something Energizer factory otherwise Dems will lose.

[Madam45for2923]

16. Nope I am a DEM. Not gonna send money to anyone who does not endorse our PREZ Candidate.

[delisen]

18. Nor am I.

[Squinch]

20. Sounds like the same old same old effort to sow division "from within" in the only party that

stands between all of us and total destruction.

That's a whole lotta dumbass, that is.

[KTM]

22. I only see an attempt to divide by the OP

Some Democrats, who were endorsed by the DSA, won. Yayyyyyyy !!!

Whats with the agenda to tear them down ? Dont we have a rule about that ?

Is any part of this sentence true, or is THAT the attempt to divide ?? "Is it a 3rd party? Is it the Greens? Are we now telling people vote 3rd party in DU? (I hope not!) "

[mcar]

23. Seems some are trying to take credit for our big Dem win

Those who put little to no effort into it. Hmm.

[Madam45for2923]

24. Very strange & creepy.

[Blue_Tires]

25. Success has a thousand fathers...

[Me.]

26. Is It Sleight Of Hand

Like a type we've seen before? Putting a D after your name to win an election? If so, sooner or later it will be caught out.

[NCTraveler]

27. After reading one of the "socialist" showing us the way posts...

I was left wondering if the author looked into the candidate at all. Said candidate sure is big into capitalism.

[ismnotwasm]

28. Its mostly nonsense

My representative, Pramila Jayapal is very much a Democrat, (endorsed by Bernie even) yet she believes in healthcare for all and forging a reasonable path toward free collage—both “Socialist” in nature. The difference is Jayapal understands how our government actually works, and doesn’t waste time on button pushing bullshit. She gets to work, and I expect great things from her.

[Orsino]

29. Maybe an effort to claim credit for the blue wave by lefties.

I dunno how much we owe to those of us far to the left or even to Donald Trump himself. The Democratic Party has certainly benefitted, and one would hope the party is largely responsible and able to build on the trend.

Democratic socialism might be a good branding for a New New Deal or something.

[JI7]

30. They were hoping democrats would lose

[left-of-center2012]

31. Stirring the pot, much?

[joshcryer]

32. Couple of far leftists win in a few blue states...

...and it gets turned into this socialist takeover of the Democrats.

Meanwhile we are running an anti-choice pro-gun guy in Alabama.
