As progressives notch win after win in Democratic primaries, the 26-year-old activist said it shows that the party "didn’t lose Gen Z; they just needed candidates to vote for."

Just over a year ago, David Hogg, then the newly-minted vice chair of the Democratic National Committee, found himself unceremoniously pushed out after he called on the party to back primary challengers to unseat members of a moribund establishment.

Now, as progressives notch victory after victory against the party’s conservative old guard and are once again galvanizing young voters thought to have been lost, the 26-year-old reformer says it proves he was right all along.

    EEU social democracy is dying quickly too. It did not work. There is no left. Ever since the Reagan and the fall of the USSR and the “third way”, the so called left does not believe in anything any more. Only power for themselves and taking certain positions to get elected.

    History is full of examples of democratic socialists getting slaughtered, literally. The US is responsible for much of it. The plutocrats are definitely going to try to kill them or put them in camps.
