Just as there is no honor among thieves, there is no loyalty among revolutionaries. Once the movement outpaces its former leaders, they get left behind or killed outright.
In the American context, we are still at a point where Hassan Piker’s dream of blood in the streets has only limited appeal. Throwing normies overboard is still done in the politically conventional way.
Donors. Activism. Primaries. Pressure. And now…? Leadership votes.
First came the calls to replace Hakeem Jeffries. Now come the calls to do the same with Chuck Schumer. After the way the Dems shafted him in two election cycles, it’s a kind of poetic justice that Bernie gets to be the one to drive the shiv in Schumer’s back.
Poor Chuck. Worked so hard to make crazy candidates palatable to the public, dumping millions and millions in efforts to elect them, only to get kicked to the curb like that.
The Democratic Party needs a new and bold direction. I will not support Chuck Schumer’s reelection as Democratic leader. https://t.co/2cSqp25Y4x

But that’s only ONE level of the shakeup going on. ALL of the aggrieved special interest folks are increasingly emboldened.
Remember how the establishment Dems were shamed into rug-pulling David Hogg from his new role as Vice Chair of the DNC because the party itself had failed a racial purity test in the election process.
Just like the French Revolution eventually turned on Robespierre, the DSA has begun devouring itself.
At least, the New York chapter of them is.
People looked around their DNC meetings and noticed a striking difference between who sits in the seats there, and what the average New York demographics look like.
The New York City chapter of the uber-liberal group will consider a resolution stuffed with politically correct messaging at its convention on Saturday that would create a “Task Force to Promote Equitable Organizing Culture” and force its leaders to get diversity training.

The resolution, if approved, would also require extensive training for DSA leadership. A recent internal survey found 60% of the city DSA’s members identified as white while the Big Apple is 34% white, The Post previously reported. The city chapter claims more than 15,000 members.
“The chapter will create an Anti-Oppression Task Force supported by the Membership Committee, which will be responsible for supporting leadership and membership to dismantle oppressive systems and combat oppressive practices in the chapter,” the resolution said. — NYPost
Even Jeffries, who was the target of the DSA’s ‘Your Next’ taunts, called them out for their lack of diversity, having been calling them ‘team gentrification’ for months now.
