It is something we wouldn’t do if genders were reversed. Something to think about.

Not me, I remember!

You do know Warren ran for Senate, right?

this is all true, but at least Warren seems to speak in specifics.

Joe Biden sucks. He among other things, has the same connections to big banks as Clinton, voted for Iraq, and *authored* the 1994 crime bill.

Yeah when people talk about privilege, do they ignore the stakes for brown and black people around the world? Because they’re real. They have suffered. They will suffer. The world wants Sanders to be President.

Sanders’ supporters are poor. He’s got 45 percent of the primary vote. This discussion of who’s showing…

Most of Sanders’ supporters are poor. He’s got 45 percent of the primary vote. This discussion of who’s showing privileged among privileged white people is a little ridiculous. The stakes are high in this election. Much higher than “not Trump.” After decades of policies which have left the poor out to dry, we have a…

What about when poor people talk about revolution?

It almost did. Obama 2008 was a progressive run for the presidency. If not for Bush 1 and 2, we would not have our first black President.

AMY GOODMAN: I wanted to go to Killer Mike, hip-hop artist Killer Mike, who you two have a love affair going. I mean, you both have great respect for each other.

My opinion is the same as Coates’: Sanders is wrong and reparations, on the better candidate at the same time.

Chiming in to say, glad that dude was never more than a passing figure in my periphery.

“Bernie believes that solar, wind, geothermal power and energy efficiency are proven and more cost-effective than nuclear—even without tax incentives, and that the toxic waste byproducts of nuclear plants are not worth the risks of the technology’s benefit.”

Do you dispute this?

Thank you for writing this - I’ve noticed the exact same thing. One of the last times I posted anything on Jez about being excited to vote for Bernie, I got attacked and sworn at for being an idiot, naive, etc. Unicorns were mentioned (wtf). The attacker didn’t care that I’m in my 40s, and have had plenty of time to…

It does feel like we’ve entered some sort of parallel universe, doesn’t it? Remember when taking campaign donations from lobbyists was a bad thing? Earlier this year, the DNC also opened the doors to contributions from lobbyists, which Obama had banned in 2008:

How dare you, this is about winning an election. Nothing more. Now get in line.
