(4,007 posts)He is the perfect stand in for all progressive Democrats and for you to use as a punching bag. Your talking points are not specifically related to Hogg, rather they are the same talking points commonly used against all progressives.
It works just fine like this, and is completely aligned with your oft-expressed political position.
"Oh good grief! It baffles me why anyone wants (any progressive) to be our party's standard-bearer. They don't think before they speak. They are emotional. They act impulsively. They want what they want and they want it NOW but aren't willing to think strategically or to accept cooperative incremental progress. They cannot accept compromise or give and take and finding common ground EVEN WHEN it puts us closer to our ultimate goals. They see enemies in friends and alienate them... then they see friends in sworn enemies and welcome them with open arms."
Argument about what the word "progressive" really means coming in 3, 2, 1...
