They know that most people on assistance

° Are white
° Live in GOP run states

They just prefer to repeat racist tropes

And listen, Republicans are the true menace here, but whatever. It's "The Establishment Democrats"...

You're out here pointing fingers, but you didn't think that there you'd catch any?

Had the something like 11% of Berners who voted for Trump in 2016 decided to vote for Clinton instead, we likely wouldn't be here. Had Bernie dropped out & vociferously supported Hillary, we likely wouldn't be here.

Pure nihilism.

Sue @suebeeblue.bsky.social · 13h

Of course they don't.

OTOH, progressives have set us back at least a half century by finding or making up any reason to not vote for Al Gore, Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris because they weren't progressive enough, regardless of what the stakes were.

Maybe he isn't so "anti-establishment, after all.

Maybe we should listen to Black women, who were telling us months ago that Platner was suspect, and maybe we should have listened to Black women who were telling us that Fetterman was suspect. Maybe...

damage that losing SCOTUS is repaired, but damn, in 2016, people on the left told me that SCOTUS wasn't an issue, they yelled, "Bend The Knee!!" and all that.

But, yeah, it's all our fault.

And the Left's insistence that it's "All Or Nothing" instead of understanding that incremental progress is better than massive regression has lost us Roe, and likely gay marriage, and Loving after that.

Run a fucking viable progressive candidate, then. It's really that simple. Understand that most people aren't terminally online like us, and they don't get slogans like "Defund The Police" or "M4A" (Mandela Barnes losing a perfectly winnable Senate seat in Wi the same year that WI swung for Biden

Fetterman is an example of voters having the information about a candidate, but choosing that candidate over the fully vetted candidate who wasn't posing as a populist progressive.

Sue @suebeeblue.bsky.social · 17h

If it was true, I would.

Bernie hasn't done jack shit in 30+ years in office to demonstrate any of these things.

They were such a great live band, just incredibly fun and entertaining.

I'm 100% sure that there should be minimum standards for candidates, and having a big tent doesn't mean that we have to accept people in who happily bash Democrats while running to be Democrats.

Apologies after these posts and the tattoo became known ring hollow.

His campaign manager's remarks after she resigned, and the fact that he's making his campaign team sign NDAs, it's quite telling.

11 people sitting at a table. A Nazi comes along and sits at the table.
Now there are 12 Nazis at the table.

I feel like the people running for a national seat should have a minimum standard, like not have a past littered with problematic words and actions, or if their past is problematic, they've

Would you admit that Bernie is not a Democrat, he doesn't fundraise for the DNC, and yet somehow, he demanded DNC funds to run for POTUS as a Dem, and then when the people did not choose him, he had a tantrum and refused to endorse or campaign for the candidate for weeks, and cried "rigged"

Sue @suebeeblue.bsky.social · 18h

Why are you defending this dude, still? What is your absolute lowest standard fir a US Senate candidate? Is it simply "white male who says things I like"?

Multiple people have said that he knew what that tattoo was, that he referred to it by the German name.
