We must Unite!

(snip)
We must use the women’s marches as an accelerant to build the flames of protest. Most of all we must unite behind our shared objectives. We can no longer afford to fight among our selves. We can no longer afford to denigrate other Democrats and progressives. We can no longer afford put down our allies because they are “too liberal” or “not progressive enough”. Most of all we can no longer afford to pick our favorite candidates and seek to disqualify their opponents in the eyes of others. Such tactics are self defeating, keeping all of us from being able to support our ultimate nominees for public office with total enthusiasm. We must banish such tactics to our past if we are to effectively confront and ultimately defeat a much bigger evil.
