It's crazy they couldn't see the excitement Bernie was creating. The only one who was excited for Hillary was Hillary.

They certainly could see the excitement Bernie was creating and it scared them because it was a threat to their self-serving agenda.

I hate that the entire political apparatus in the US hinges on a few assholes' egos, but it's what we're stuck with

[-] Tja@programming.dev 0 points 12 hours ago

Few assholes' egos... and hundreds of millions of voters who support them.

[-] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

No.

A hundred million people given nothing but a false choice.

A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.

A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.

RULES:

1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.

2 No Trolling

3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, anti-communism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.

4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.

5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.

6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc. This includes instance shaming.
