the thing about being a leftist and being always right is that there is actually no feeling of "i told you so" satisfaction because the things we're right about tend to be things like "ratfucking for joe biden in 2020 will give us trump in 2024" which sucks and everyone got mad at us for saying that
i will never forget the stereo despair of watching the democratic primary context close rank around joe biden while covid had its first surge it was one of the worst few weeks of my life
I generally agree with this sort of take, but Bernie was viable against Trump in 2016, not 2020. Trump campaign was organized in 2020 and wanted desperately to run against “socialism.” The argument you’re making is effectively that it would have been better to lose to Trump in 2020, which, maybe.
all this argument over Sanders and nobody talking about how Sanders had said that he would support an Elizabeth Warren candidacy, but instead he ran against her
hi, it’s me again to say all our choices suck and i hate it (my brain might also be filled with lead, idk)
I'm sorry your comfort pretendian who was so dogshit she lost her own state in the primary had to have a primary and couldn't just go "I HAVE A PLAN!!!!" and win. That must have been hard for you
