No liberal is safe

    Bernie’s whole thing of “Not Me, Us” was about building dual power?

    This is wishful thinking. He never said anything to this effect, and was very transparent the whole time (dating back to 2016) about playing the electoral game straight up. He was never ever ever going to break away from the Democratic Party and try to establish some leftist organization. Anyone could have seen this after he chose to ran in the Democratic primaries and/or after he campaigned for Hillary after he lost the first time around.

    Make of his strategy what you will, but don't imagine it was something it never claimed to be and then get mad at him for betraying a fiction.

      Then he's absolute garbage lol, fuck him for doing something good and backing off because he's an electoralist.

      Chen is absolutely right when he said that Bernie could have stopped this. He could have but chose not to and I will in fact blame him because he's willfully not being part of the solution and even misleading people into thinking he's something more than he was.

      Also bro, you need to chill with the incredibly liberal and reactive defense of imperialist garbage. I'm tired of having these conversations with you.
