Congrats on being able to afford a mortgage and I’m assuming you have healthcare.

Biden will only get Sanders’s voters if he takes some of his policies and makes them his own. People will still be suffering from medical debt and lack of healthcare regardless if Trump loses. Calling folks “yahoos” for caring about working people and not simply having a myopic middle class vision that only sees Trump…
I recommend everyone read this article. https://www.currentaffairs.org/2020/03/what-liberal-feminism-leaves-out
The Root wrote one of the most cringe worthy pieces about Warren that I have ever read. It was written as if it was a fairy tale, good fucking god.
I agree with you that some people dislike identity politics because it doesn’t center straight white men, but that is largely a strawman argument meant to dismiss real criticisms of identity. We can argue forever if a woman will ever become president in this country, but in reality nothing will change unless we…
Yea, but that is precisely why she didn’t gain enough support. We are entirely polarized. It’s either your with the establishment or you’re against it (Which I don’t necessarily think is a bad thing). Warren definitely appealed to the latter in the beginning of her campaign. My point is that by voting for Biden you…
I mean, both parties should be burnt to the ground. They’re essentially monopoly corporations that force you to support in one way or another because we don’t have proportional representation. I mean, Sanders is right about his rhetoric, it’s just unfortunate that he has to play their game. And believe it or not, I…
These people are online! It’s a tiny minority of idiots and do not represent the people who canvassed day in and day out for Bernie Sanders. I’m just so tired of hearing about this “bernie bro” phenomenon. It’s largely amplified by the propaganda wing of the DNC (MSNBC, CNN, NYT etc.) Bernie himself has never said…
I want free shit and I want the capitalist class to pay for it. It’s quite simple.
20k people showed up to a rally in September when Warren was seen as the media darling and compromise between the establishment dems and the progressive left wing. She hasn’t been able to get momentum since. And please, Warren’s campaign began because she tapped into funding she had leftover from her senate run, which…
The reason why Sanders is beating out Warren is because many in his base don’t look to him as a savior. They see Sanders as a vehicle for radical change. His entire messaging, “Not me, Us” gives credence to this. I know full well that Sanders will have the hardest time getting anything passed in congress. It will be…
The fact that you think Sanders’s supporters are the “other side of the Trump coin” shows just much you do not know about politics. Radical centrism will always be a losing strategy. Liberalism that clings to notions of civility in an absolute fucking crisis will also lose.
Warren is not doing well because she does not have a grassroots movement behind her. Activists from all over the country are putting their support behind Bernie. Over 25,000 people showed up to rallies in Richmond, CA and Tacoma, WA for Bernie. He just has that popularity that Warren lacks. Yes, it might be a little…
