(hexbear.net)
Welcome to c/electoralism! politics isn't just about voting or running for office, but this community is.
Please read the Chapo Code of Conduct and remember...we're all comrades here.
Shitposting in other comms please!
Reposting in the proper comm. Accurate analysis of the election, best thing from bernie in a long time, but he still won't call Gaza a genocide
If only he didn't uncritically support Kamala until today
And defend Biden not dropping out for months lmao
Nah, it's still bullshit. He made it sound like the Democrats catered specifically for the Black working class, a laughable position. And he still won't call it a genocide, so fuck Sanders.
B-but she said the words, she said bitcoin!!!!!! What more could they want!??????
BERNARD SANDERS
START A BREAKOFF PARTY AND MY LIFE IS YOURS
bernie sanders, welcome to PSL
Despite his embarrassing levels of liberalism in recent years, I can't hate the man. Correct analysis by him, and hopefully he uses his last years to put together a foundation for something that goes beyond the Democratic Party and its corporate machine.
Hopefully he uses his last few years to put several tons of TNT under the Capitol building's foundation.
All those Bernie running videos from 2016...turns out he's been running this whole time so he'd have a little extra time at the benches, if you know what I mean.
That unfortunately can't be successful without major country wide electoral reform to remove first past the post style voting. I could only really see that happening if the capitalists think that they need to destroy the current two party system to get better control of worsening conditions. Basically asking the masses to calm down and they can vote some greens and libertarians into power as a treat.
If he was willing and prepared to do that then he should have spent the last 8 years doing so.
Unless he admits to having acted like a coward and an opportunist then there's no reason for anybody to trust him, he switches effortlessly between closing blue ranks and offering carefully measured critiques that will permit him to stay at the table.
The only way he doesn't change his position and morphs back into a harmless democratic party loyalist in good time for the next election is if he keels over and dies first.
The problem is he doesn't have any credibility, you can't show up in the aftermath and assert that you always thought the emperor had no clothes.
If he can't risk the basic embarrassment of being wrong about the Dems losing the election due to abandoning the working class, then what can he be trusted with risking?
As I said in /r/BreadTube when someone linked this:
