          I put time money and effort into the Sanders campaign and I'm not bothered by "disrespect" being thrown around. I think it's important to learn from the mistakes we made. I'm pissed that all that time money and effort was wasted. I'm pissed that nothing came of it. I'm not going to sit around whining about people being mean because I wasted that energy, I'm going to try and take the situation that we're left with and build something from it.

          Stop fucking whining about people being mean and do something. The energy behind Sander's campaign didn't occur in a bubble. Just because he dropped out doesn't mean people stopped experiencing the conditions that made him popular. He grifted us into thinking he could save us with a small donation and a moment of our time, but we should have known better. Only we can save ourselves.

        exactly, thank you. so few don't realize how incredibly powerful the president is worldwide. The US is far far faaaar more right wing in it's dealings with the rest of the world than it even is at home, which is saying something.
