Cripple. History Major. Irritable and in constant pain. Vaguely Left-Wing.
Fuckwits. Should have taken shitwit seriously a long time ago.
Caesar slander! He was assassinated by conservatives for not sufficiently fellating the interests of the ultra-wealthy.
Blyat.
I wish that was true, but Bernie lost the majority of pledged delegates. Superdelegates were the only means by which he could have won the convention. If superdelegates were not a thing, if it was only pledged delegates, Bernie still would have lost.
You are not really fooling anyone feigning to be Bernie supporter but an actual DNC sock puppet.
Lord.
Dem primaries-- much of whom are full of blue MAGA and rigged by DNC elites-- selecting a non-popular candidate who will do the bidding of corporate donors will not win the actual election.
Rigged how?
Bernie is popular when polled on national level (by the way, in a hypothetical election between Trump and Bernie, showed the latter would be way ahead).
Okay, so it should have been easy for him to get out the vote in the primaries, right?
But if polled among the elites and blue MAGA such as yourself? Of course he is not popular.
I literally pointed out that I’m a Bernie supporter. Did you forget to read the comment before replying or something?
Would you like to remind me what Bernie’s weakest demographics were in the Dem primaries, in 2016 and 2020?
Just ruthless state oppression, when you get down to it. This is literally Nazi Ger-
So you are indeed one of those.
“BlueMAGA is when you look at a fascist-voting electorate and don’t see The Indomitable Rise Of The Proletariat™ in a fascist electoral victory”
It is as if Bernie, a more popular candidate, wasn’t deliberately sidelined.
More popular as measured by…?
It is as if Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, another popular politician, wasn’t selected to head the Oversight committee and chose instead a geriatric, monied politician.
That has nothing to do with Dem primaries or the electorate, man.
And finally, ask yourself, is not running on those popular platforms gave Democrats the win in elections?
No. If it was, why would Bernie not have won the Dem primaries? If these positions were so overwhelmingly popular when expressed by politicians and not as abstracts, why would Bernie, an undeniably charismatic, fucking spotless politician with years of experience and a sharp wit, lose to Clinton, and then Biden?
Or are you going to call people dumb? Who is really the dumb one for losing against annoying orange?
I didn’t realize intelligence was measured in votes. I guess I have to concede that your position is correct - by that measure, fascism is smart, while all the losers are dumb. Like the Dems. And the PSL.
After all, if they were smart, they would’ve won, right?
I’m a two-time Bernie voter. If there was a real primary in '24, I probably would’ve been a three-time Bernie voter. I marched for him back when my leg was good. I donated. I hammered on doors.
People are not as left as you think they fucking are.
You have it the other way around. It is the Shitlibs™ preferring literal fascists by not going left enough on common sense policies that the rest of other developed countries take for granted.
“They didn’t go far left enough; therefore, the smarter choice was to vote for the furthest right option available.”
👏
By not running on popular policies, Shitlibs are tacitly allowing literal fascists to take power.
Tell me more about these popular policies. Or rather, tell me more about their popularity in the US electorate.
I dunno man, when you actually sat down and talked to him he seemed to really understand what was going on.
They smile and nod and agree and then go back to the same old fucking lines, 99/100 times.
Get me in a room with an unsuspecting conservative, and I can get them to agree with Marx, Malcolm X, and Mao; their agreement means nothing, because their views are based on passing feelings, and will pass with those selfsame feelings. The media they like to consume, that caters to their feelings, also manipulates those feelings. You are up against their entire media consumption habits.
This week he was talking about civil war because he has realized what the administration is doing to him and people he cares about.
And next week he’ll change his mind again.
Sure it was stupid to vote Trump, but it was more stupid of Democrats to lose to an orange man by not appealing and refusing to acknowledge those who have economic anxieties brought by mismanaged globalisation.
Average red fascist preferring literal fascists to the dreaded Shitlibs™
But they are tone deaf when you point out that the Democratic party is not willing to run on the platform on Medicare-for-all, build more social housing and increase federal minimum wage (and ditch Israel), which made the party unappealing and lose consistently.
Oh cool, those are winning issues in the Dem primaries, right?
What’s not mentioned in this excerpt is that this was sponsored by Third Way, a think tank that is singlemindedly devoted to convincing Democrats to cut the left out of the party. God knows the DNC has its problems, but it’s misleading to frame this as a mainstream Democratic conference.
“Moderates say party should go moderate” shocker
It doesn’t matter at this point. US hard power is largely worthless with US soft power wrecked.
Trump’s priorities are infinite support for genocide, and no support for people defending themselves from genocide.
Do you realize that when you criticize Hillary and Kamala for running a “bad” campaign, you’re implying that Trump ran a good one?
No.
If I play a terrible game of chess, just absolute dogshit, and lose, that doesn’t necessarily mean my opponent played well. They could miss a checkmate 10 times in a row. They could sacrifice their queen for no gain. They could leave themselves open and only be spared by the barest fate of wandering attention failing to see any number of perfect attacks against them.
Ya think maybe, just maybe the thing Kamala and Hillary have in common that America rejected is the obvious answer?
Their lack of charisma? A tempting thought, but no. Their moderate politics? A popular position on here, but not really what I’d buy.
What Kamala and Hillary truly had in common is that they campaigned before an audience of malicious idiots. And malicious idiots always prefer their own.
Papers over the many, many things they both were not right about. Clinton especially - whatever bad decisions Harris made, and she certainly made bad decisions, she was also dealt a bad hand. Clinton had a decade of planning and still screwed the pooch.
Mask-off, I see.
