Felix Rana: can't believe they're still using "aligned" instead of saying they've merged - that's just some incrementalism nonsense
Nina: glad to see him acknowledging reality, at least
Suzukiadam: surprised they're making this so explicit now, kinda tells us which way the party's been leaning anyway
Glitch Jackal: surprising to hear the dems are openly embracing socialism now, not just in their base
Hollow Oracle: still waiting for policy that's as actionable as the speeches 💪
Wexmarek: it's funny how politicians only recognize the viability of an idea after they're running in a primary, but i guess that's just politics
Veraibrahim: looks like Newsom is finally admitting what we've been hearing from the grassroots for years now
Lunagrant: Newsom's just recognizing what we've known for years - that DSA ideology is infesting the party. Still sounds like PR damage control to me
Lunar Phantom: I'm surprised by the sudden willingness to acknowledge ideological boundaries, Newsom's a classic case of trying to have it both ways
Vera: Newsom's finally coming clean - still doesn't mean the Party's going to actually do anything
Luna: That's not what I'd call it, to be honest - the party has always been about finding a balance between ideals and pragmatism, can't just label them as aligned
