Is the "Fight Oligarchy" Tour a Democratic Power Grab?

Bernie Sanders and AOC's "Fight Oligarchy Tour": A Strategy to Maintain Democratic Party Hegemony? The recent "Fight Oligarchy Tour" featuring Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has sparked debate about its true objectives. A recent video interview with a political analyst suggests the tour's primary goal isn't to combat oligarchy, but rather to consolidate power within the Democratic Party. The analyst argues that Sanders' past campaigns, while appearing progressive, ultimately served to energize voters who were then channeled to support establishment candidates like Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. "They always create these 'sheepdog' movements," the analyst states, "designed to shepherd people back onto the Democrat plantation." This claim, while controversial, highlights concerns about the strategic use of progressive movements to maintain the status quo. The video's analysis warrants further investigation into the motivations behind the tour and the broader implications for American politics.
