But like if defunding the police was actually a good idea then maybe having the Sierra Club and various state NARAL chapters endorse it would also have been a good idea. But it’s not a good idea and I seriously doubt these groups thought it through. https://t.co/xLrfWzjxwg — PolitiTweet.org

On the politics there is some retroactive forgetting here but what happened is that a lot of mainstreamish liberal groups briefly hopped on the defund bandwagon and that become a lever for GOP attacks. https://t.co/AuLVyPmXxE — PolitiTweet.org

This seems to me to be not primarily about the 2020 election but about letting social media vibes and a vague desire to be good allies override critical thinking about policy and the nature and purpose of issue advocacy groups. — PolitiTweet.org
