Sounds like something a landlord would say.

We already did, actually 

What’s grimly hilarious about this is that people who treated Sanders supporters as if they were cultists hanging on their messiah’s every word are now flabbergasted at how many of them, for whom Bernie was always a compromise candidate and a means to an end, won’t just, y’know, do whatever he says. 

I mean, if you haven’t noticed the distinct toxicity of the online Biden camp (which is largely made up of ex-KHivers) and the vicious hatred for Sanders and Sanders supporters they’ve been displaying for a very very long while now, I’d suggest maybe you haven’t been paying attention. Which is totally fine, paying…

Not that I would ever in a million years support Trump, but isn’t one of Biden’s major supposed selling points that he could get remorseful Trump voters to switch over to his side (he can’t, btw)?

See there’s a perfect illustration of the argument I’m talking about! Couldn’t have written it better myself. 

So after years of hollowly, cynically trumpeting a clumsy caricature of intersectionality in service of protecting capital, the party lined up behind the single most reactionary right-wing candidate in the field (well, save Bloomberg); a racist, mass-incarcerating, anti-choice, anti-immigrant, imperialist, sundowning…

It’s ok — I mean it’s not, another Trump admin is gonna be a genuine nightmare, (not that a Biden admit wouldn’t be as well) — but I’m fully prepared for brainrotted liberals to blame the left. That kinda shit used to upset me, but it doesn’t anymore. The Party has made it very very clear over the last several decades…

I mean...do people seriously think Trump isn’t gonna win? Do they actually think the Dems’ repeating 2016 (appealing to a mythical normalcy, the cult of competence, and “moderate Republicans”) with an even worse candidate is gonna play out differently somehow?

People pushed left by Bernie’s campaign: it’s ok to be sad. It’s ok to be angry. It’s not ok to give up.

He gave a big speech about it earlier in the season, defining the term as he sees it (which, again, is basically just social democracy — the last legit democratic socialist to attain any sort of real power was Allende, which didn’t end up working out too well!), but I agree he hasn’t made it much of a campaign…

I think Sanders is about as good as you’re gonna get out of a politician in the US, which is to say nowhere near good enough. Like it kinda drives me nuts that he calls himself a “democratic socialist” when democratic socialists are a real thing and he’s not one, or that he brands what’s essentially a liberal…

A “white moderate,” you might say?

It’s really not that complicated — there is no such thing as a genuinely left-wing politician operating within the structures of bourgeois US democracy (and yes, this obviously includes Bernie and other social democrats). Especially on the federal level. Of course AOC’s gonna moderate towards the center; she has to!…

In my state public sector workers are considering striking for hazard pay and access to PPE after one of them got sick with coronavirus and died. I’ve been trying to puzzle out a way since I read it yesterday to express just how smarmy and gross an argument like MD’s is under these circumstances, but I’ll just say…

Well I’m sorry to hear about your dark times (I like disco though!), but I’m curious as to how you feel about these issues now. Obviously a lot of your former comrades rejected Dengism and adopted a Hoxhaist stance. How did your commune handle the Sino-Soviet split; were you in the anti-revisionist camp? What was your…

Hey Randolph! Big fan. Given that you’re a former US Maoist, wondering if you’d indulge me a bit here. How do you feel about the Deng Reforms — necessary given the material conditions of the PRC at the time, or a plot by capitalist roaders to concentrate power in the hands of a developing national bourgeoisie?…

Biden looks like shit and kept losing himself mid-sentence today — meanwhile, Trump’s approval rating continues to rise despite his manifestly inadequate, self-serving response to a massive public health crisis that’s potentially going to kill millions of people in the US. Great job, Dems, you’re going to lose. Again.…

Please come back 😢

Tbh we could use some socialist death panels right about now
