Fucking ooof.
I'm not sure what this has to do with anything. To start Kathy isn't running for office. Second, there's such a thing as being principled. I'm not going to make an exception for Kathy in this case simply because she's also a progressive and no one else should either. I actually believe in the fact that abuse for marginalized people doesn't only exist on the internet. This is a Muslim woman coming off of one of the most horrendous acts of anti-Muslim violence in recent memory. Pulling this nonsense where Kathy wants to count score of abuse is gross. Finally, why is it that we need to be nice to Kathy for the sake of a win? Isn't this Muslim woman also a voter who will contribute to pushing towards electing progressive candidates? Does her vote count less than Kathy's? If we risk "pushing away" Kathy what does that say about how she's possibly pushing away this Muslim woman? If Kathy is really an ally she should be able to take this critique of her behavior in stride.Man, the left just seems dead set on eating its own.
Focus on the fucking goal people. The policy disputes comes later, first y'all need win and put people in place to lobby and work with.
