Pressuring lawmakers, even the good ones, is vital, but all the yelling and name-calling isn't going to change the fact that the Squad is, at most, only 8 people in a 435-person House. This is a war the Left isn't nearly strong enough to wage right now. https://prospect.org/politics/establishment-strikes-back-aoc-versus-centrist-democrats/
Far as US electoral politics is concerned, the focus should be to redirect the energy and resources of the Sanders campaign down-ballot. A progressive, possibly socialist, Congress (and below) is more important than the presidency. Your pressure would actually mean something too
As is, the modern Left keeps skipping steps. Went for the presidency with barely any local/state power or Congressional representation. Now we're treating a tiny group less than half the size of the Tea Party caucus as if they're already the dominant faction in Congress.
Sanders was in the House 20-some years, and by necessity played (and still does, largely) an accommodationist strategy with the Dems, because he didn't have numbers to do more. He never took the kind of openly adversarial approach the current members already do.
So never let up the pressure, but keep things in perspective too. Mindless, clickbait invective is unproductive anyway, but right now especially. That energy is better poured into getting the Left the numbers & institutional power to be able to actually wield real influence.
