He wants to replace the current group of old, complicit, corrupt neoliberals with young, maybe(?) less complicit and corrupt neoliberals. He does not want to replace them with progressives.
Edit: based on my browser history, I believe I formed the impression reading something in a Lemmy thread about a month ago probably related to this article, but I can’t find it again so I’m just gonna say I must be wrong.
I guess every media outlet that I’ve looked at is reporting this wrong for saying he was backing young progressives. Even his website claims that. But I know Democrats love to tease at being progressives to appeal to voters, and then shift back to the right.

Hmm,
maybeI’ve fallen for misinformation.Edit: I can’t find the thing that initially gave me the impression that David Hogg wasn’t progressive, so I’m removing the “maybe.”
Source?
I can’t find it, so I’m retracting the claim.
