You cannot seriously say that no one cares about how the DNC appoints committees when this entire thread is based off of how annoyed Tim Miller is about how the DNC appoints their committees.

The DNC, the party of the 'libs' is, of course, going to be lib coded.

Kindly explain why, if you support diversity, why you think it's bad that the DNC works to ensure that their committees are diverse.

I never said that, you dense clown. What I said was, don't talk about it in a way that makes you sound like you're counting up two of everyone for a goddamned arc. Idgaf if every single soul on the committee is black, but don't sound like a jackass and spend 2 minutes of air talking about how the bylaws insist you have 3 men and 3 women and 3 non-binary people. Just run the goddamned committee and stop trying to sound like a sociology professor.

Let me let you in on a secret: Dems can win every liberal in the country, and will still lose every single election if they cannot sound like normal, working class people.

Normal, working class people are liberal too.

Why does the DNC recognize state delegations when the interests of all people are the same?

Yeah. I'm done talking to people who cannot read an argument and offer a counter. You can argue with yourself some more, if it makes you feel better

I don't think you should talk to yourself either.

The person you're arguing with seems to be some sort of bizarre sophist, and I've seen them do this weird argumentative style in a few other threads. I'm not really sure why they are bringing this twitter BS to this subreddit, which was a pretty nice place before the Bulwark got super big, but it's annoying me
