why is it that if you speak against your party youre threatened and called names by your own party?
It will be a nice change that the Dems allow freedom of opinion from within the party.

That's what's known as "identity politics" aka "tribal mentality". Members of both parties are guilty of that and is why corruption's been allowed to fester. If one speaks out against issues they don't agree with they fear they'll be ostraciized or expelled by the group. In many cases they're right, unless the highest value held by the group is that of ethics and truth rather than power.

there are some Dems that disagree with AOC but they dont call her out and attack her and tell her she isnt part of the Dem party.

Funny you should mention her as she crossed my mind when I wrote my last comment. There's been plenty of criticism of her within the party which was made public, particularly in the WP, NYT, Politico, NPR and PBS. While I've not read any extreme inflamatory insults about her by her colleagues, she has however been put under extreme pressure to conform to the party line.

what you dont see is, them telling her to leave the party, or the "rhino" or pelosi "I will primary against her,
THE CULT did all that. Or if you aren't with me, when your state needs help, i will block funding.

The Repugnant party is split- now Liz Chaney isnt republican enough? They will have to re-org and that will take years. the Republican party of Reagan, the Tea Party, and the CULT. Where was the tea party, the fiscal hounds under Clumpy?. I am sure they will be out again with Biden. THey will say we cant afford that NOW.

In this case its because they supported an impeachment based on fake news. Trump never advocated for violence and in fact always advocated for peace and respect for law enforement.

No, they supported the impeachment because it was the right thing to do. Trumph's repeatedly advocated violence at both his rallies and on his Twitter feed, saying things like "if you see someone getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of him; after a protester got pummelled at another rally he condoned it stating "the audience hit back and I thought it was very appropriate, we need more of that"; "Id like to punch him in the face"; telling police "Please don't be too nice" when apprehending and placing suspects into custody; etc. If you don't think any of that encourages violent behaviour, you're delusional.

There have been dozens of criminal arrests made over the years where the person arrested invoked Trump's name in the police report and court documents as the reason for their behaviour. Here's an article from last year which cites 54 such cases
