Sanders's lost disillusioned us all in some way, but even now you can still see some people hooting for CTH to insert itself into the conversation about every left-ish movement. And I feel like among these people, only a small number believes that CTH has some kind of big, real-world impact. The majority just want to hear the hosts' takes and make it their own takes. They are relying on CTH to think for themselves. I just want to ask these people why do they take the podcast this serious, especially after they have been wrong many times.

    This is why they’re wrong . Bernie wasn’t the “last off ramp to destruction.” He would have governed fairly similar to Biden, which you can tell since he keeps pretty quiet on criticizing his “good friend” and because he wouldn’t have had the political capital to do anything worthwhile anyway.

    Agreed, Bernie would have many similarities to Biden. Also, the closer we get to any concession, the resistance from Capital would increase. Any off ramp to destruction would inherently lead us closer to the same destruction we are trying to avoid. My opinion, revolution is a mind fuck but the only path out.
