    Jeet Heer Retweeted Pete Buttigieg

    "Burn this party down" means trying to bring into the system non-voters (younger people, poorer people, POC). Expanding the party is a threat only if you value the party as a sinecure rather than as an agent of political change.https://twitter.com/PeteButtigieg/status/1230316299026300932 …

    We shouldn't have to choose between one candidate who wants to burn this party down and one candidate who wants to buy this party out. #DemDebate pic.twitter.com/iE8syCzv17

        Imagine a Democratic Party worthy of mourning after its destruction.

        of course, that IS what they view it as, because that's how it's operated for years. @jakebackpack nailed it. https://twitter.com/jakebackpack/status/797817209187864576 …

        Burn this party down could also mean pretending to be a part of the party and having staff/supporters that would rather sit at home than vote for a less pure progressive

        Imagine writing off the difference between Pete and Bernie as a “purity test” when the difference is literally tens of thousands of people’s lives. You’d have to be awfully out of touch or just not really care about ppl to say something like that!
