Wow has the press gone downhill. Maybe they aren't paid enough to care, but that piece ain't worth a dime. Allow me to rewrite this article to what it SHOULD have reported if there was any interest in informing the public:
While the Democratic party has historically been known for being far more willing to criticize its own members and polices when compared to Republicans' willingness to do the same, there is an emerging group of Democrats that no longer do so. They are being called the Blue Maga.
Unlike citizens who will "vote blue no matter who" because they fear another Trump presidency will be the death knell for the United States, the Blue Maga contingent insists that not only must one vote that way, but that all Democratic policies, people, and decisions go unquestioned. It is notable because it is the same sort of reflexive obeisance that they condemn in Trump supporters.
Nicely done
