I was at a party once and Bernie was there and he said to me that a woman could never be president. This is a real thing that happened.
I saw Bernie Sanders at a grocery store in Brooklyn yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
A couple months I went into Vermont to visit my sister. While I was there I got roped into watching my niece in a hair salon while my sister got her hair done. So I’m sitting in the salon lobby, bored as fuck, watching my niece and who walks in but Bernie fucking Sanders. At first I was kinda nervous and freaked out, I’d just kinda glance at him every now and then, trying not to freak him out. But then my fucking niece starts crying and fidgeting and shit and won’t shut up. So I’m trying to keep my niece quiet and not bother Bernie, when oops, too late, he gets up and walks over to us. He just smiled and stroked her hair, and asked me what was wrong. I said I didn’t know. Then he looked at me with those penetrating beady eyes and simply said in his deep Brooklyn accent, “she seems like she’s hungry.” Then he lifted up his shirt and breastfed my niece right there in the salon lobby. True story.
Never forgot the guy making calls for Bernie will he was in the hospital bed. He’ll be avenged one day.

While I absolutely agree that Warren should go to hell, seeing this only reinforces my hatred for Bernie rather than making him more endearing. This poor senior, probably on death’s door, supported the sheepdog who backstabbed them and every other Bernie supporter in desperate need of single-payer healthcare and an NHS, by getting behind Biden. I will never forgive Bernie for sucking all the fucking political energy out of easily 95% of the US left when he left the scene and handed their goodwill over to the rest of the fucking Democrat demons. This poor bastard in the image here probably died having seen Bernie bend the knee to Biden.
Every DSA member who hasn’t completely disavowed Sanders and the Dem-entryists by now deserves a punch in the face and should be considered a fucking traitor to the working class. Every Harringtonite opportunist and careerist is every bit as much of a fucking snake as Sanders and Warren. Yes I fucking said it, Sanders is a snake for taking it in the ass from the Democrats for thirty goddamn years, and pretending like he was still our ally after selling out to Clinton, if not after selling out to the military-industrial complex in his own state much much earlier.
Our momentum is pretty much gone, Dems are going to use the scare last week to manufacture consent for using the full force of the state against us (making last year’s police brutality look like child’s play), and I have run out of patience. We could be forced underground this decade because we allowed these fucking losers to lead the working class. Y’all wonder why I shit on DSA leadership so damn much (and to a lesser extent, SAlt and other revisionist orgs who pander to DSA instead of correcting them ruthlessly). This is fucking why. “Succdems killed Rosa” isn’t just a thoughtless truism, it’s a meme for a fucking reason.
We are looking at a scenario that combines elements of post-9/11 hysteria with both Red Scares. So-called “socialists” and police “abolitionists” are using terms like “sedition” and “treason” unironically. If you’re in the US, every liberal you know is about to go insane again like they did 19 years ago and they’re going to treat us like we’re crazy (if not outright dangerous). When (not if, when) BLM-adjacent riots inevitably break out again this summer, liberals who were nominally on our side last year are going to shit their pants and explicitly permit the state to completely fucking devour what little we’ve successfully built since Occupy with the surveillance tools they started building during the Bush years and just like back then they’ll think nothing is wrong when socialists and communists start going to jail and get completely ostracised from their communities on the basis of being “just as bad as the fascists”. I want to fucking die just thinking about the wave of reaction that’s coming.

I was incredibly pissed when I wrote this, and continue to be constantly angry. Maybe it’s not deserved if you’re a deluded uncritical follower of the Harringtonite leadership but you’re definitely part of the fucking problem. I will never know peace again because of these Harringtonite losers.
Well I’m glad you’ve got someone to blame, but thats small solace by the look of it.
Completely original. This is 100% serious. I might have gone slightly overboard in a couple places.
look at it this way:
if nobody’s trying to kill you, you’re probably not really doing the right thing.
Honestly I wonder if the only way to wake up my lib family members is to just let myself get killed by a cop. That’d be much faster than the slow torturous process of waiting for conditions to get even worse in ways that any of us could easily predict now using economics and dialectics.
libs never were and will never be allies.
and saying the right words does not make you a comrade. doing the right things when it counts does.
or wanting to do the right things but being foiled at every step and feeling kinda shitty about it. let’s be real; most of us are millenials and zoomers who aren’t willing to murder our parents.
or wanting to do the right things but being foiled at every step
At a certain point this stops being useful. This is a recipe for demoralization and despair if not executed properly, if it doesn’t lead to accumulating additional meaningful power for the working class.
foiled at every
it means you’re occupying the things that woul foil others. it means you’re creating collective wil. it means you’re not telling the revolution to shut the fuck up and keep their heads down and just be a part of things, which is so frustratingly the default. it means you’re at least a story, at least an education in what didn’t work, and very likely a person who will be available when something does come along, however demoralized you might be.
I would argue Bernie ceased to be useful by around March 2016 if his entryist experiment was even necessary at all (I would argue it wasn’t, since the Jesse Jackson campaign is still within living memory). We wasted at least four fucking years on this shit.
Bernie did a lot of townhalls and streaming in those 4 years covering the plights of everyday americans. His primary performance was not how I’d hoped things would go down, but he still helped radicalize a lot of typically non-political people in that build up to 2020.

Was the senate flipped because or in spite of Bernie/left wing/universal healthcare? I think that it the tactical question one might answer. However I would’ve liked to not see that support, but on the other hand if Biden would’ve won without Bernie is questionable. Which makes me think that it might be Bernie who influenced the capitol hill LARP.
However revolutionary fervor instead of appeasement would’ve been nice.
How dare you accuse us of revisionism! An act which is in and of itself revisionism!
Is it because you don’t consider exchanging technocratic jargon before sex erotic foreplay?
Yeah, I believed in stuff once, why do you ask
