Greenwald, Cole, W R Pitt, ...go on down the line

Many left leaning websites. 
Many people I admired once. 

They made zero effort to get behind Hillary as soon as she was nominated. 
In fact they actively worked against her. It's all there in their writings. 

Because these asshole elitists didn't lift one finger to elect Hillary my wife and I will most likely lose our health coverage now that tRump is in. 

No it's not their "fault" but you catch my drift. 
Must be nice to be an elite like them and pontificate from lofty and highly educated secure perches. They're so clever. 

Onward to revolution.

1. I haven't read W.R. "24 Business Hours" Pitt in ages.

It doesn't surprise me he worked against HRC.

7. Ironically, W R Pitt called President Obama every vulgar name in the book because of the ACA,

and because he incorrectly thought he wasn't covered, but found out later he was. He never apologized for the slurs used against President Obama, only to those on DU for using such language. 

Hopefully not, but there is a real possibility that the ACA that he was cursing along with President Obama, might just leave 20 million people without insurance. Who is he going to rant against then? Perhaps himself?

20. When "God_Bush_And_Cheney" Andy was dying, Pitt questioned the validity of it

I'll never forget that one. It comes as no surprise that there would be a long trail of **** ups after that, I wouldn't know, I ignored and rejected anything from then on.

26. I called WRP on his sexism more than once. Even got him to change something.

Once. 

Remarked on wannabe gonzo journalists a time or two, as well. ï¿¼ 


And I so agree...a lot of progressive men still have a Dudebro problem. It is really ****ing irritating. Holds back so many things that could have been good--for everyone.

40. You guys and your circular firing squad

Make me sick. 

If this is what this site has turned into you can have it. 

Bigger fish to fry.

44. They also consistently trashed President Obama during both

terms, often using "damning with faint praise," ignoring real progress he made. Their goals were to create fear, uncertainty and doubt, about our President and, by extension, the Democratic Party. I imagine they are gloating now, but I won't see it. Now that they are no longer on DU, at least with their well-known screen names, I can avoid them. Another was Manny Goldstein, whoever he might be in real life. A relatively clever writer, he built a strong network of followers here and helped to suppress more rational, serious DUers. 

Now, he's off running an splinter website, JPR, where one hopes he stays. 

None of those people are actually progressives, but are more or less skilled at pretending to be.
