  1. Her point is that Bernie spent decades as a politician who barely enacted any noticeable change through development and passage of legislation. That’s why his wiki is so lacking. Bernie wasn’t a “doer” or a guy that got things done. He was the guy that stood out on the left side of the room and held down that line while others were doing things. It is a big difference between the two candidates
  2. That would be awkward for old man Bernie after he takes office and goes deep on all these corrupt actors
  3. Just continually doubling down on how stupid and useless the bad asses are... wow. Yes, I have (and do) serve in all branches of the military. Navy seal, Army ranger, Delta Force, Israel Defense Force... I’m also the first commander of special elite group in Space Force, and am consultant to the next Rambo movie. When badasses have representation on elite badass forces, they don't just pull someone randomly out of a hat to sit in. Do you seriously think that's how it works? Jesus Christ.
  4. It depends on the state imo. Bernie would prob be ok down ballot in union states like Michigan but would be a disaster in a state like Texas. “Socialism,” “communism,” and “raising taxes” would tank Dems in Texas. I’m not expecting to lose the US house if Bernie is the nominee but we won’t make gains in the Texas legislature like we could have.
  5. Bernie wins the nomination, and in the first debate, the moderator asks Bernie, “Are you a socialist and are you going to raise taxes?” Bernie says, “Yes and Yes.” That will be the end of the debate and the election will be over. Trump can pull out and wank his little mushroom on live TV and it won’t matter.
  6. A platform labeled “Socialism” in Texas is a losing platform. That is plain as day for anyone that knows the state. It might work in the Midwest or other places, but not Texas. You might as well run under the platform of “population control” or “bureaucracy.”
  7. I’m not that in-tune with how the electoral college would likely shake out in Bernie-Trump head to head, but there is probably a reason why Hannity and Trump defend Bernie while Trump goes to the extreme to attack Biden and Warren. From a Texas perspective thinking about the State legislature, Bernie would be terrible for down ballot candidates.
  8. If you are a Bernie supporter and realize you have adopted right-wing talking points, at what point do you hear Ding Ding Ding.
  9. Mitt
  10. Do stupid people ever wake up and realize, “holy shit, I am a fucking idiot!” or do they just continue on with their day as if everything is normal
  11. I’ve already pointed out your warped sense of reality from snorting social media ooze. This is another indication that you have a problem. Close the social media accounts. Intervention
  12. We all know you have identified yourself as part of the problem. Only you can do something about it
  13. Of course. There is no justification for your position. I suggest you reflect and seek intervention.
  14. Yeah. And as I scrolled through. You and two others are part of the “loser brigade” and are part of the problem. If you aren’t unequivocally supporting any democrat during the general, you are part of the problem. Seek help
  15. Take a look at poll results bro. That should be some indication that your thought process isn’t “normal.”
  16. Because you are a fucking idiot and those aren’t two actual real choices, only two stupid choices your idiot brain has put together from snorting the ooze of social media for too long. Get help
  17. When mommy brings me a plate of only 6 tendies, I throw them out the window because I deserve 10 tendies!!?! You people are part of the problem. Something happened in your past that I suggest you explore. Maybe it’s as simple as having a twitter account and spending too much time on it. I get it. Or maybe your parents failed at establishing an appropriate level of emotional intelligence. Don’t blame them. Parenting can be hard so don’t hold it against them. Either way, intervention is warranted.
  18. WhAtAbOuT Christmas!! It has been awkward watching you grasp at straws. I used to think only one side uses the BoTh SiDeS fallacy.
  19. Being on purpose (or manufactured) doesn't mean it isn't also outrage. #FireChuckTodd was trending 7th last night. That's too bad. You should watch and read the quote. This being manufactured is critical to understanding the situation. Strawmen are a sign of a weak position. Maybe another strawman or maybe you haven't read this thread.
  20. This manufactured episode reminds me of an interview a former VP of Facebook gave and he described how Facebook and social media in general is being used to “rip apart our social fabric,” “tapping into short term dopamine feedback loops,” and that “you don’t realize it but you are being programmed.” https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/amp/blogs-trending-42322746
  21. It has been rather bizarre to watch unfold.
  22. If folks can’t watch the video in the Newsweek article I linked, here is a quote. Hosting a panel discussion on MSNBC yesterday, Todd said: "I want to bring up something that Jonathan Last put in the Bulwark today, and it was about how—and Ruth we've all been on the receiving end of the Bernie online brigade.” "Here's what he says: 'No other candidate has anything like this sort of digital brownshirt brigade. I mean, except for Donald Trump. The question no one is asking is this: What if you can't win the presidency without an online mob?'“ "'What if we now live in a world where having a bullying, agro social media army running around popping anyone who sticks their head up is either an important ingredient for, or a critical marker of, success?'”
  23. Its not outrage. It’s delight!! 👍 I recommend you watch the video in question. This is as manufactured as manufactured gets. This is great example. I’ll link in a second. https://www.newsweek.com/fire-chuck-todd-trends-quote-article-comparing-bernie-sanders-supporters-brownshirts-1486641
