[–] Clent@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 child) That's right wing spin. Only the politically ignorant believe it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago (1 child) Lol. No. Only the politically ignorant think that the DNC is anything but a power hungry juggernaut, set on choosing candidates based on their own agenda regardless of the will of the people. They don't even really seem to care if their candidate gets elected. I really don't understand how more of a fuss wasn't made when they cheated Bernie out of a fair shot, were sued by donors and used the defense "We were so blatantly favoring our favorite that anyone who thought we were being impartial wasn't paying attention and deserved to be swindled out of their money! Yes, we broke rules to get Sanders out of the running, but we were very obvious about it and they were our own rules and we can break them if we want, so get fucked." And the court was like.. "Yeah... sounds good." https://observer.com/2017/08/court-admits-dnc-and-debbie-wasserman-schulz-rigged-primaries-against-sanders/ permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Clent@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago You're still hurting over Bernie. That's cute. Politically that was a long time ago and you're still holding a grudge over it. This is why the Democrats lose. Many on the left needs to be placated with something new every election cycle while the right votes without any hesitation. permalink fedilink source parent
