South Brooklyn DSA

heeeeere's the thing about the whole "old man co-opting a youth movement" shitfit people are throwing... THEY are the one's doing the heavy lifting and making it about Sanders.

let's be real here, a senator showing up to a protest is a pretty basic way of demonstrating solidarity. it's not "co-opting".

you start to wonder if these people even understand the concept of showing up in solidarity.

and the kids? they LOVE the old guy. he's speaking TO them.

the kids who are unfortunate enough to be downwind of this epic shart party the hashtag resisters are throwing are going to take note. they're going to remember how people like tom watson chose to elevate their petty grievances with Sanders over the message the kids are sending.
