Barney Frank once said that Bernie alienates his natural allies, and every action since March or so when the writing was on the wall has illustrated that. There’s a reason why so few of his fellow congressmen supported his campaign - he was not particularly well-liked by his coworkers, and that’s putting it mildly.

That’s not Bernie.

The majority of the rage I’ve seen is due to hypocrisy not necessarily due to trying to get the most liberal candidate in any given election into office. I think a lot of people are pragmatic and make compromises. Sanders...doesn’t. Just look at how he refused to endorse Ossoff in the primary because he didn’t feel he…

Bernie has used this one photo as proof of his street cred for decades. Maybe he could do something NOW.

“Idon’t think we should abandon our principles so easily, but I understand what he’s trying to get at.”

I’m sorry, but is everyone just in some magical bubble and ignoring the compromises that a middle America Democrat has to make? Bernie’s RIGHT in the sense that we absolutely need more Democrats on the local and state level to make a change.

The left is divided on Bernie because he prioritizes a narrow set of economic ideas over other issues that are priorities to many people on the left. For example, I don’t care if we break up the banks if it means I have to lose reproductive rights to do it. My priority is my bodily autonomy. Sure, I would like to…

“Just wait your turn, girls. Once we make the white men rich and happy again, this’ll all be solved.”

Gonna be honest, this stupid unity tour and the way Sanders is getting to be spokesman/policy setter while not being a Democrat has me about ready to leave the party.

Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck Bernie Sanders. Fuck…

Love that the intellectual purity required by Sanders and his supporters on economic issues doesn’t extend to women. Fuck you, you fucking hypocrites. You can’t claim a progressive platform while consistently giving women the finger when it suits.

What good does it do to get more Democrats into Congress if they’re still going to vote with and like Republicans? That’s his logic? People find that appealing?

Preach. I genuinely agree with 99.99% of his positions but more and more I am realizing there is something really nasty about him. The primary shit once his candidacy was no longer viable really did hurt Hillary in the general and I think he’s more obsessed with his brand than actual legislative success

Bernie only cares about white men. He doesnt care about women and POC. Im surprised Tom got mixed in this, the dems need women especially WOC since they vote democrat. Also it rich that bernie complaining about a purity test when thats what he’s been doing. He just did it with ossoff.

I used to be indifferent to Bernie - that stopped during the primary campaign - but now I just can’t abide him. Who made him god of Democrats? I mean, he’s willing to use the party and then discard the party at the first opportunity and that makes him no friend to the Democratic party.

So he supports this guy, but was dissing Jon Ossoff, who is an actual progressive?

In my region deer are a pest animal thanks to there being few natural predators after wolves were driven north by farmers. If we don’t hunt them and eat them we will be hitting them with our cars instead. I also find peace in being more connected to my food source. Saying that buying farmed meat unless you’re too poor…

You do realize that the vast majority of hunters eat their kill, right? I don’t support fucking helicopter hunting and frankly don’t love the whole guns thing, but killing animals in the wild vs on a farm isn’t actually that different, except the hunters often have more respect for the animal than those of us that get…

Seriously? This is one scenario where the urban-rural divide is real, if this is honestly how city people think. I don’t support the “AWW POOR WHITE RURAL PEOPLE JUST WANNA BE RACIST!” idea, but hunting is not a systemic problem or criminal.

No, it isn’t. Eating meat is fine. Torturing an animal to get your jollies is psychotic. And there is a world of difference between animals being humanely slaughtered for food and animals being ambushed, mauled by hunting dogs, bleeding out in a clearing so some redneck can feel like a man.
