Michael Moore, who the last time we checked was white, hit back at Nancy Pelosi over the Speaker of the House’s mild critique of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez from Sunday’s “60 Minutes” by saying that “white people” don’t like “giving up power” and that “they never see the writing on the wall”:
White people. Nobody likes giving up power. And they never see the writing on the wall. The new day arrives and no one has the heart to tell them they and their old tired privileged ways are over. https://t.co/jAGjzEjLgp

Hopefully, this means Michael Moore is retiring and putting ending his “old tired privileged ways”:
I take it this is your retirement announcement? https://t.co/5DEqt7qTkR

But it’s not only Moore who is going after white Dems. Check this out from former AOC staffer Waleed Shahid:
Quinnipiac poll: California Dems: Biden 26%, Sanders 18%, Harris 17%
California Dems earning over $100k: Biden 25%, Harris 21%, Sanders 9%
Much of *fierce* opposition to Bernie is disproportionately from wealthy, often white party elites than Dem base.https://t.co/R4ruyL2Jdx

Old and white if you’re Michael Moore or Bernie Sanders? A-OK! Old and white if you’re Nancy Pelosi: Hell No!
