Form a new party!!! Don’t call it Labor or Labour. Don’t call it Green. Don’t call it progressive. Don’t call it socialist or liberal.

Just give it a name that people understand and don’t have preexisting bias against. “For The People”

Take on BOTH the democrats and GOP. Become popular overnight. Keep hammering home it is not about skin colour, race or country of origin, but about the billionaires that aren’t happy with paying no tax and having billions. Make it about the 99%.

It is the only way you’ll get your country back without excessive violence. The two status quo parties are hollowed out from the inside. And both are infiltrated by foreign interests.

That's what Bernie is saying. He's calling all progressives to run as Independent, aka No Party Preference, down ballot so we can shove the Corporate DNC into the GOP where they so desperately want to be anyway.

“People” = “Communist”

[–] RedSuns@lemm.ee 47 points 1 week ago (8 children)

Agreed.

Gotta take a page out of idiocracy here folks.

The Cowboy Party (Named after the most popular/recognizable NFL team)

Or, how about:

The Murica Party

Then you put Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as your president. I’ve had debates about the feasibility of this approach and this is the modern Ronald Reagan play.

The worst part is that Republicans unironically believe that these are all paid actors.

They need to organized this momentum into a proper party, maybe call it the labor party or the progress party. But most importantly they need to not be scared to use actural leftist rhetoric and appeal to class conscious workers.

Go baby go!

It's working kids - despite the blackout from the mass media, people are taking to the streets:

I was at the rally! I was one of the last people let inside before they closed the gate, and thousands of people that didn't get inside watched and listened from outside of the fencing, so the actual number was more than 34,000.

Here's a photo I took...

And here's Bernie...

We gotta put all our energy into what they’re doing. They’re the rare few on the left that really understand what is going on and how to start fighting it.

Trump and gang is trying to have AOC charged for terrorism, so it seems to be working. She should either get DNC leadership now or finally form her own party.

I can really see AOC as president. She's already at the minimum age, but I would like to see her take another 5-10 years to learn how to broaden her appeal.

[–] OccultIconoclast@reddthat.com 61 points 1 week ago (7 children)

I want her to start running right now. Fascism is here, we can't afford to wait.

DNC:

The best we can do is normalize Trumpism. Now, for what's important, how many more terms can we keep Schumer?

[–] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 52 points 1 week ago (6 children)

It's wild to me that democrats by and large haven't realized that the DNC is holding them back. I'll never forgive them for picking Hillary over Bernie. How different would things be now if Bernie had been the nominee?

If Bernie was 20 or 30 years younger, AOC and him would smash the fucking Government of Putin.
