(6,859 posts)On this one issue alone (racism) we have to be ideologically pure. Mainline Dems pushed racists out of the party beginning in 1948 and we should never look back.
The Rogans of this world need to apologize to US before we allow them back in the party. We owe them NOTHING. By minimizing the effect of Rogans racist comments we are betraying our AA and Hispanic brothers and sisters. No amount of hipster comedy is going to make those racist comments acceptable.
Rogan likes Bernie? Bernie needs to use the power of his popularity to push the racists out of his party or even better, make them see the error of their ways.
If I start making racists comments, feel free to throw my ass to the curb as well. It is conduct unbecoming any liberal and especially, any Democrat.
Racism is a deal breaker. Now and forever.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
