Seriously. This cannot be said enough - some doctors do blame the patient if they don’t know. (And this applies to many things, not just Lyme). It makes me so angry - one dead relative and one almost dead- both from cancer that was not caught. In relative 1 it was “in his head” and relative 2 “it was a flu” (that…

Some (not all) doctors ARE experts at blaming the patient if they don’t know what’s going on. They also can’t fathom a simple shift in perspective that maybe its not the depression causing the pain, that its pain causing the depression. They might injure their egos if they did.

So your logic is: elect someone who you KNOW will make things overwhelmingly worse for at least four years, in the hopes that people then turn to your candidate/vision, rather than elect someone who will maintain the status quo for at least four years, and then hope people turn to your candidate/vision?

I’m just not convinced of this revolution. It’s the Republicans who are getting people to show up to vote, St. Bernie can’t even get all these pockets of so-called hidden progressive voters to come out to vote for him in states where he needed bigger wins.

No, I did not say that at all. There won’t be a “revolution” with Trump. There will just be disasterous policy and a terrifying number of real people’s lives will be ruined as a result. And the energy in the country will swing towards wanting a nice, safe, experienced candidate (read: establishment), and all this…

What’s stupid is that electing Bernie or Trump is going to start the revolution. You want to change the narrative? It’s not going to be top down in the U.S. (we’re too contratian). Start at local levels-city council, school district, mayors, state legislators. If there aren’t progessives running-run yourself. Most…

Supporting Bernie isn’t naive or stupid.

If they wanted a revolution they would all be running for whatever miserable little district they live in and have some comprehension that change starts locally, not by electing one wild eyed finger wagging lifetime politician.

Thank you! It’s really, really, really hard to start revolutions. Most Americans have it pretty good, and small incremental changes are hard to notice in your everyday life. There wasn’t a revolution when W. became president. There won’t be one if Trump were to become president. But things will continue to get…

Nothing egotistical about believing you should be leader of the free world!

What fucking kind of “revolution” does she think is going to happen? Has she forgotten that all of Trump’s dumbfuck supporters are the ones with the guns?

I can understand why a lot of these under-30 Sanders supporters are under the delusion that America will “finally wake up” if Trump or Cruz are elected instead of HRC, but there’s no excuse for people as old as Susan Sarandon.

Seriously thank you for saying that. This whole pure white dove shit about Bernie is bat shit. You can’t be in politics and be a pure white dove.

Bernie's ego can be spotted from space.

Ugh. I have heard the argument “well if this super right wing person gets in it will help bring about the socialist revolution sooner” so. many. times. from people on theleft at different elections over the years. It never happens. You just get a crazy right wing government and the rollback of rights and progress that…

Trump will do real damage if he was elected to real people. So, no. He can't be allowed to become president.

W. did not usher in the revolution when people refused to vote for Gore. Why do people keep insisting that this election would somehow be any different?

Bernie doesn’t have any ego in this thing?Please. You couldn’t be a politician if you weren’t operating profoundly from the ego.

Her argument makes zero sense on any level. This is Joker-level logic

I like when rich people talk about revolution. Because they’re in no way going to retreat to their gated and guarded communities when shit gets real.
