    Are you saying wanting alternative solutions is part of cointelpro? Im not sure i understand the significance here or what point you are trying to make.

    If there are other options available why is that a bad thing to focus on? Or why is it better to be focused on negatives about one person this far out from an election?

      I’m saying that after the FBI does its utmost to disrupt opposition programs at the behest of the republican and democratic establishment, using the fact that there is no viable opposition and blaming the individuals for not coming up with one, in order to silence complaints about the establishment candidates is pretty shitty.

      And just because COINTELPRO ended, does not mean the practice did. They just got cleverer about it.

      As for the reason why to focus on negatives this far out from an election, why are democrats focusing on the positives this far out from an election? This is just a reaction to the dems trodding out potential candidates, presumably in order to test the waters. Another example is gruesome newsom, I’m already seeing the resignated libs saying shit like “well I don’t like him, I don’t agree with him and I’ll be the first in line to demand a better candidate but if they run him I will vote for him because it’s blue no matter who”.

        It seems like the democrat establishment doesnt want him to win the primary.

        Its really weird the political spectrum of people attacking him seems to be all over the place but im guessing almost none of them are actual voters in maine.
