Not gonna lie, most of them weren’t very organic. And I think this kind of propaganda only makes outsiders even more sceptical.
If you already have a narrative where people are being alledgedly brainwashed by Bernie Bros, It’s not a big step to think they were forced to do this as well.
Most of them are semi professionally produced, some even with a script and set. That’s just not a good look.
Best would still be if the DNC had accepted an invite for observation or something. But that would obviously be biased too.
I’ll just accept I will not know for certain what really went on in the Bernie campaign. But I don’t trust the DNC one bit.
EDIT: Here's the brainwashing that the Bernie campaign did to those poor people: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwlndDvarpg (you can see this poor soul clearly reading from a script off-screen).
They even had a workshop on how to do it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8l-rmmmzPhk&t=15m26s (Timestamped at the moment where they ask people to record stories and share stories with the #MyBernieStory hashtag on November 25, 12PM EST. It even goes through a step-by-step process on how to use the Bern app in order to record your story). Absolutely despicable.
a lot of that work is more properly called mobilizing and not organizing. Jane MacAlevey has some great stuff on the difference
Then plug that army of new organizers in to local community and union organizing drives where their energy and training can be very valuable and make a real, immediate, tangible difference.
Instead we were expected to immediately transition to the Biden squad 🤮
I try to not be too hard on Bernie, so many of us are here because of him.
Yeah this is the sad part for me too.
Bernie with Trump’s “fuck the establishment” energy would’ve been a sight to behold and likely unstoppable, especially once the pandemic hit.
I know right?
Good copypasta 5/7

I agree with this, just wanted to say the post is a pasta-style rewrite
It's a copypasta.

I found it frustrating when I stuck to the script. It was cool to just shoot the shit and only invoke election shit when you could.
