What happened with AOC in Munich? I see no discussion on here but a lot of bashing on social media.

42. Winning what?

Continually adjusting our agenda based on what we think will win is exactly what has allowed the right wing to become so powerful and dominant.

Abolition was once a "pipe dream." Women's suffrage was once a "pipe dream." Organized Labor was once a "pipe dream." The National Park system was once a "pipe dream." Medicare and Social Security were "pipe dreams." The Land Grant college system, and Cooperative extension and the entire food safety infrastructure were once "pipe dreams."

In each of those cases, there were people saying what you are saying here. Usually the lead in is "don't get me wrong, I agree with you BUT..." "It isn't practical." "Now is not the time." "First we need to win." "Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good."
