Also love how they jump right to assuming I am a right winger because I am disputing their dumb ass take.

    Posh brunch libs despises the working class and needs to be hurled into the centre of the sun immediately.

    The left should reach out to the workers abandoned by neoliberals who are currently drawn to various forms of right wing nationalism. But how do we actually do it? They hate the actual left even more than they hate liberals. Who has had any success agitating then?

            Lots of people have done that without much success. What was different this time?

                I think a large part of Sanders' ability to reach people came from him looking like a "real politician", an old white guy in a suit with a D next to his name. He looked too nice and too familiar for the "pierced bomb-throwing anarchist" bogeyman to apply to him.
