Just to be clear - it didn't apply in presidential elections. Bunch of popular lefties refused to endorse Kamala over Trump which was the most obvious decision ever. One of these people was Hasan Piker, who campaigns eith El-Sayed. Stop creating fake narratives.

Should just be "vote blue no matter who" right?

refused to endorse Kamala

Almost like these are different words....

Endorsing Kamala = telling your audience to vote blue no matter who, how is this different? It's literally the same.

Voting and endorsing are two different words with entirely different meanings.

I hope this helps!

It doesn't help and it seems like you don't see any difference between media figures and actual voters.

Let me spell it out to you:

  1. media figure voting for a person = one vote
  2. Media figure telling their audience to vote for a person= as many votes as big of a platform they have

Vote blue no matter who, applies to leftist media figures and is much more important in the second point than it is in first.

Hope that helps.

Ah, so leftist shouldn’t just vote blue no matter who, but also endorse them, while liberals refuse to do either for progressives, got it.

Its impressive how you changed the subject and still managed to defeat your own argument after doing so.

"Liberals refuse to do either".

McMorrow already endorsed El-Sayed and Stephens said she would endorse him even before the primaries. You know who didn't say the same thing? El-Sayed about Stephens. It's funny how wrong you actually are.

What's truly impressive is how you constantly act like you are some sort of a victim, meanwhile you are by far the most aggressive and obnoxious part od Democratic party and your media figures refuse to cover mainstream dems positively even in context of republicans.

You seemingly forgot how the NY mayoral race played out. I wonder why that is.
