Ok I will continue 'mouthing off'.

Clinton won the popular vote. Bernie would have had to get nearly ALL the superdelegates to vote against the popular vote to win. All they did was cement Clinton's victory. His campaign also raised and spent more money.

I don't know where your reading of 2016 has come from. Is this just copium that Bernie didn't win? which part of the less votes from more money is the capitalist conspiracy?

And again, Biden beat Bernie even harder than Clinton did. People vote for who they want to be president. America doesn't want Bernie to be President.

And look at that, the popularity of Bernie has moved the Democrats further left.

    It's crazy how you can be so wrong. The DNC colluded with Hillary against Bernie, it was proven in email leaks circa 2016. As for 2020, again, Biden won against Bernie in red states that went to Trump, Bernie beat Biden pretty handily in blue states.

    Bernie hasn't pushed the dems meaningfully to the left, just the population. The DNC is just as Neoliberal as ever.

    Again, keep mouthing off.

    But he didn't win the popular vote in 2016 or 2020! What do you think that means? Yes obviously he beat Biden in the more left wing states, because he is more left wing. But because he is less popular, he lost overall. The DNC 'collusion' was some emails then the emailers resigned. When they weren't colluding, he lost even harder. They're not rigging elections. This is QAnon level shit. The Dems are meaningfully more left wing. That's such a blatantly, irrefutably obvious fact I don't know what to tell you. Look at the shit Biden has done, it did not happen in the Obama era.

    You don't understand the process of primaries, I suppose, and again, Bernie won the states that ended up going to Biden. Bernie would've won regardless, likely winning what Hillary lost.

    It's a known fact the DNC colluded, there's mountains of evidence. The dems are not more meaningfully left wing, Biden hasn't pushed America any closer to Socialism, lmao.

    Keep mouthing off, it's funny.

    Well you're refusing to educate me if I am wrong. Point to a single action the DNC took that cost Bernie the election. Biden and Clinton got more votes so won. Why are you hung up on some states?

    I'm not sure why you keep instructing me to mouth off, kinda weird.

    I showed you, the DNC collaborated with Hillary. Read up on that collaboration behind closed doors.

    I'm hung up on Biden winning states that didn't matter for the general election because they went to Trump anyways. Biden ran on being the "safe" option even though Bernie was polling better.

    The fact is, the DNC won't move left because they need donations from wealthy Capitalists.

    So your problem is that we should only care about the votes of Democrats in safe blue states? Is the idea we shouldn't count the votes of Democrats in red states in the primaries? This makes no sense.

    Yeah the DNC being meaningfully anti Bernie is QAnon level conspiracy nonsense. At a basic level of analysis it makes no sense. I've read up on it plenty and it only confirms this. Ideological, partisan nonsense that is honestly embarrassing for the left wing.

    I would vote Bernie and I think he should have been President. But he didn't get the fucking votes so he isn't. Tough luck.

    Nah, you just don't understand primaries nor do you understand electoralism, and dismissing it at QAnon bullshit because reality disagrees with you just proves me right.

    I already told you. Bernie would've beaten Trump regardless, Biden was only popular in states that ended up going to Trump, and carried that momentum through the Primary process. It's likely that Bernie would've won flat out had the primaries been simultaneous, plus there's the previous DNC fuckery you keep walking back and pretending didn't exist.

    All of that is to say that the DNC and major news outlets absolutely massage the narrative in favor of the most bland and benign Capitalist they can, in this case Biden, despite Bernies policies being far more popular.

    It's quite simple, and no matter how hard you defend the current system, it's fucked regardless and designed to change as little as possible.

    This is basically just paragraphs of cope at this point. Trump people have a similar set of arguments. "The mainstream media blah blah blah", "The SYSTEM is fucked", "the DNC blah blah blah" same shit, different coloured hat. If only you guys had the grace of Sanders himself to know when you lost.

    None of this has any substance. What-ifs, would-haves, and conspiracy.

    I really don't know what to tell you, you only screech and squawk without actually countering anything I've brought up. You call it "cope" when your only tactic is to compare what I'm saying to Trump supporters. Guess radlibs are gonna radlib, I suppose.

    You didn't, lmao. You're akin to a flat-earther, thinking that money doesn't control politics. Just look up the Koch Brothers and see what they've done to destroy the minds of American voters.

    You do realize that I never said it was about which campaign raised the most money, correct? Clinton was an establishment dem and had the rest of the establishment dems behind her, who in turn were bought by large Capitalists in one way or another.

    You're legitimately a flat-earther, believing that every election is sacred and that the media and who's funding the media and who's funding political parties doesn't matter.

    Again, check out the Heritage Foundation, the Koch Brothers, the entire Oil industry, and so forth.

    Ok! Together we'll overthrow these awful capitalists! I'd say we should give two votes to every leftist, but they still probably wouldn't use them lol
