This honestly isn’t true, because the demographics Sanders has staked his campaign on are unreliable voters. They couldn’t even carry him to the Democratic nomination, much less carry him to victory in a general election.

There is “abuse” from every candidate’s supporters. The media chooses to focus on Bernie because he is a threat to the pearl clutching liberals. Biden will lose if he doesn’t appeal to Sanders’ base. That is just a fact, especially in the context of coronavirus. There will be an entire class of unemployed people who…
Thanks for writing this Ashley - I am a brown woman for Bernie, and I feel seen.
Thank you for articulating all this erasure and spin. You outlined my frustration, and that of many, many others. When I went to the LA Sanders rally, I saw every kind of American in attendance. For exactly the reasons you address. I hope this article gets the attention it deserves! Heck yeah, I want a revolution.…
You still have had FAR more privilege in your life as a white feminist, than I, as a multiracial, feminist, disabled woman who supports Bernie.
We get it. Possibly better than you do. COVID-19 is tearing apart the tattered remains of our social safety nets, and threatening to drag half the population down with them, the planet’s burning, and the current administration is stealing everything not nailed down and trying to strangle democracy.
I am a Bernie supporter and I think Biden is going to fall flat on his face at the most inopportune moment - Tuesday November 3, 2020.
Unlike Joe Biden who is a holy saint, if you ignore the groping, and support of segregation that is
There’s at least one actual statistical analysis that shows Bernie supporters are just as proportionally hostile as every other candidates supporters, so maybe we can fuck off with that argument already?
Can’t wait to hear in these comments how Bernie Bros are actually worse than Nazis.
Remember when new Bond films had great themes... I sadly don’t because all the themes while I’ve been alive have been rather meh. I mean Eilish’s is... alright but it seems pretty standard fare, pretty much the Sam Smith one without the teeth-grindingly bad high-pitched stuff he does.
It is reductive though. First of all, why does rap get called out when virtually all music has a loose relationship with the truth? Second, rap is rooted in black oral storytelling traditions like toasting.
Warren lied.
Several candidates released statements late last night. Pretty sure that waiting until damn near noon the next day EST is pretty patient.
I find this super super interesting! I do think one of the reasons BTS made it in the West is that they are more easily able to fit into the authenticity myths that Western audiences demand - coming from a smaller company, being actual songwriters, etc - but obviously, to match that myth, a lot of other incidences are…
I always feel bad for the girl groups - BTS has definitely had crash diets, but I do think BTS (as a function of being male, to be clear), has more creative control than many girl groups (although I think f(x) and MAMAMOO are good exceptions, particularly re: their ability to gender-bend in style and control their…
You spend the top bit of this article shitting on girl groups, including judging them for their plastic surgery & body size (I lost my mind when you made that comment about how they need to eat & must be famished) & style of music, yet turn immediately around & praise their boy band equivalents for essentially the…
I have a degree in nutrition and have worked out for 2o years. I have taken HGH which he 100% has. A fat 40 year old doesn't change their muscle/fat comp in 12 months like he does without help. Not about being lazy you dolt, taking HGH doesn't change the amount you have to work out it greatly reduces the required rest…
I mean he doesn't mention all the steroids, but that's none of my business.
You see this as different from associating blacks and fried chicken or watermelon? And there, as pointed out by Dave Chappelle, fried chicken is delicious! Filipinos have been called “dogeaters” as a slur for decades (read the book with that name).
