Frightened Dems realize the DSA they birthed is coming for them
It’s a truism that revolutions always eat their own, and that’s happening to Democrats—and we “normals” are the only thing that can stop it.

A truism of leftist revolutions is that the Old Guard is never sufficiently pure for the younger generation that it trained. More scarily, the younger generation is usually willing to engage in mass slaughter to carry on the pure form of the revolution, whether with or without the help of select Old Guard members willing to save their own skin by embracing the slaughter.
Right now, we’re witnessing a few in the Democrat Old Guard who suddenly feel the revolution’s claws scraping at their jugulars. We can only hope that normal Americans stop the madness before the blood really flows.
Going back to the French Revolution, the pattern has been the same: Revolutionaries rise up against real or perceived oppression, they train a new generation in the revolution’s values, and the new generation goes on a bloody tear:
The French Revolution started in dead earnest when the Girondins brought down the monarchy. The Girondins, in turn, were purged by the Jacobins/Montagnards. The same Terror that brought the king, queen, and aristocrats to Madame Guillotine eventually put the Girondins in the tumbrils, too.
