    I think I'm going to start choosing to believe that everything Bernie has done starting with the 2016 election was done to demonstrate the futility of "working within the system"

    punished-bernie "You libs thought they would let you vote to curtail the MIC? Or give yourselves healthcare? Or stop the planet from boiling? Well, witness your futility!"

    It's way less depressing this way

        Bernie constantly getting shot down by the dems serves to radicalize libs.

        Other dems only push reforms they know will be killed by Republicans (then go silent when dems are in power) to show that the republicans are opposed to that policy. Bernie shows socdems that the dems are just as opposed to these policies as Republicans.
