Why would you rail against the party whose nomination you're trying to win? How does this help us build a coalition necessary to actually pass the policy agenda on which you're running?
It's as if Twitter centrists with huge follower counts are the only people who aren't voting for Bernie. All of those older black voters in SC who still support Biden...are they "the establishment" trying to stop Sanders?
I know plenty of lifelong Democrats who are middle or working class Boomers who are scared to death that "a Socialist" can never win. I disagree with them. But they are not part of some "establishment" trying to thwart Bernie. They just have different voting preferences.
The Democratic Party is comprised of tens of millions of voters who will determine who the nominee is. Not some smoke filled back room cabal. Just work to persuade Democratic voters, and don't pretend like everyone who's not with you is part of some shadowy "establishment."
Indiscriminate and reflexive anti-institutional rhetoric in a complex, modern society is corrosive of democracy. So is indiscriminate and reflexive trust in existing institutions. The space in between these two statements is called “politics.”
