Bernie dying as a martyr will have been better for the left than if he had done that because of the lasting impact it's had through people seeing how shitty he was treated only for wanting to give people human rights.
But we need people willing to push it and fuck over the Democrats. That's who I hope someone like Nina Turner ends up being, but we know anyone who would also wouldn't be allowed to win.
~~I mean just as the tea party had a shit ton of capital behind it, so will this.
Meanwhile the left is trying to rebuild out of the gutted unions, random Anarchist groups, and the husks of other mutual aid groups all funded on like $2/mo donations cus the working class basically loses money every year just to live. ~~
Edit: sorry Im a little drunk and misread your comment. You're 100% right, the left should have let the Dems die like yesterday.
If Trump starts a third political party while the left still nestles into the cleavage of the democrats it will be an embarrassment.
Oh, so it’s going to happen then. Just like how the pandemic happened after Bernie’s campaign was already toast, so there went any leverage.
Bernie should have split the dems after Super Tuesday and said no concessions, i am the compromise.
But no, he’s “Joe’s friend”, so we all have to descend further away from any hope
