Re: Fund/PIRG/GCI: the Incorporation of the Progre (none / 0)

I don't think that Jasmine has ever actually organized a day in her life.  She clearly has horrible people skills.  I am willing to bet that she wouldn't be able to maintain relationships with volunteers if she tried.  And if she worked with paid staff, her turn-over rate would be through the roof.  I sincerely hope that Jasmine never works on a campaign for progressives and/or democrats.  I would be more than happy if she worked for the republicans because it would be a guaranteed loss for them.  

Jasmine-

I have read all of your ignorant comments.  Don't take your inability to organize out on people that have done more for the progressive movement in the past week than you have in your whole life.  And yes, I am very aware that this is an ad hominem attack.  It's hard to argue with someone's reason when they do not have any.

What is your motive? (none / 0)

Can you be more transparent on the nature of your group?  How many are you?  Who funds your protest group.  What is your goal. Increase your salary?
Lessen your hours or just disband GCI?

Because this is an organized takedown of GCI and the progressive movt.  Republicans have a counterpart.  So it seems this is not just exclusive of the Dem Party.

Talking about people skills?  Look who is talking--debating  by bullying and  punching below the belt.

Re: What is your motive? (none / 0)

Umm, are you seriously saying the GCI is synonymous with the progressive movement?

And what would really be lost with no GCI?

I'm not advocating a position here, but this is strikes me as a fairly paranoid post.

I'm fully prepared to accept that GCi does very useful things, but I'm not prepared to accept that they are building a base or delivering infrastructure to a progressive movement. They are fundraising and they are doing paid door-to-door GOTV canvasses and they are mostly doing it with young activists who don't have a connection to the communities in which they work.

This is not evil, but it isn't building a movement either.

Does Jasmine work for GCI? Of course she does. Ignore trolls, esp. Astroturf Brand<c> Trolls, and they go away.
