Hillary supports legal pot now? That’s news to me. Did you change your stance on gay marriage just a few years ago when Hillary “evolved” on that issue? Oh, and single payer healthcare? Last time I checked, Hillary just wanted to keep things the way they are. Sounds like you’d align more with Bernie based on what you…

Hillary and the DNC have no interest in helping progressive candidates. None. They have interest in supporting candidates who will support them and their decidedly not progressive policies. That's how buying influence works.
Supporting Hillary Clinton (as I intend to do in a general election if she gets the nomination) doesn’t make anyone a right-wing apologetic. Defending neoliberal economics and cynical dog-whistle identity politics? That does. I’m commenting on the turn this commentariat has taken, when it comes to defending every…

It doesn’t establish anything more or less than it’s important that he stay in the race and keep fighting from the heart.
Sanders’ racial justice platform is much more transformative than Clinton’s, which is why he has support from New Jim Crow author Michelle Alexander, Ta Nehisi Coates, Nina Turner, and Erica Garner to name a few.
Both of them are lacking, both don’t support reparations, but Sanders doesn’t take money from an industry…
Washington and Michigan seem to disagree with you, and I bet we here in California do as well. But I’m blue either way.
So if Hillary wins she’ll owe favours to Wall Street, big oil and big pharma. If Bernie wins, he’ll owe favours to...the working poor.
Yeah, especially now that the mathematical probability of his winning is extraordinarily low but he keeps citing trumped up stats about how the polls claim he’s in better shape than Clinton so they’ll keep digging into their pocketbooks for him.
This is so true. A vote for Hillary is a vote for the patriarchy, within which she is thoroughly entrenched. There’s a lot of complaints here about “Bernie Bros” and “I like Bernie but I despise his supporters”, but in fact the bulk of the vitriol and whining I see here is coming from the Hillary camp. I wish people…
I think it’s obscene that you think so little of the opinions of the working poor.
“It’s like you think magical things will happen.” Basically everyone’s right-wing aunt on Facebook, except now it’s a liberal talking-point.
I dunno what happened to Jezebel since I got re-grayed, but it seems that right-wing apologetics have taken over and a $350,000-per-chair fundraiser—even unholy by Republican standards—is now just “how the sausage gets made”.
high priced fundraising dinners in general are bad. that’s the point. the american campaign system is disgusting.
well, i would imagine “a clean and efficient mass transit system to make our lives easier and more productive.” is a clear example of representation for taxes.
no one likes socialism, but they love the shit out of social programs. you know, like roads to drive and highways to drive on, public transportation, etc
