1. The Jacobin message also downplays the history of oppressed people

If your response to LGBT issues or the concerns of people of color or women's rights is that economic revolution will satisfy all of these concerns and you don't want to talk about them, that's problematic.

I supermistrust the Jacobins on human rights and equality issues. The attacks on Mayor Pete, for instance, are a reminder of the typical hateful attitude of Jacobins toward gay men.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
