Some recent critiques levied at DSA's organizational strategies peddle in an aesthetic-radicalism that risks distracting the working-class from organizing itself into a disciplined political force.
He had a heart attack, he could barely withstand the media blackout/blitz, last yearcompared to 2016 he was hemorrhaging support, he was sidelined, drowned out and ignored by the majority of Americans
His movement played no role in the protests and many of his top supporters have latched themselves to the democratic apparatus
And frankly Trump had a bigger role in radicalizing and mobilizing the left then bernie ever did, bernie has been there for 40 years, 2000 nobody heard of him, 2004 he was seen as a joke, 2008 nothing in the face of Obama's grift
Play great man history if you want, doesn't change the fact he's done
drowned out and ignored by the majority of Americans
What planet are you from? He had an unprecedented string of early primary victories and was the clear favorite until an unprecedented fix was called in. If the Tara Reade story or the pandemic hit a month earlier Bernie would have likely be in the White House now.
Arguing that we should run candidates in a party people take seriously has nothing to do with great man theory, either.

Literally the only unprecedented win was Nevada, everything else was expected or a crapshoot, he ate shit hard, he practically had no voter base in large parts of the country, he lost southern black voters to a segregationist and you want to tell me this guy was a harbinger of radical politics, please

bruh this is some grade A cope shit, if he was the man you claim he was, he would have stuck in there and fought for every state and every delegate, he would have used his base to generate a media blitz around covid and took the primary to the convention. But he didn't because even he knew his movement was cratered, all twitter barks and no grassroot bite
bernie definitely isn't a radical socialist anymore, but that entire primary was completely rigged.
no politician has ever won the first three primaries, either republican or democrat, except for bernie sanders.
no time in history have the leading candidates all dropped out to endorse a single entity prior to super tuesday.
the exit polls all somehow differentiate from the expected outcome, and everyone favors joe biden, rather than being split.
the fix was definitely in. which is just another reason that electoralism is a crapshoot.

You're just out of touch with reality. I don't know how else to put it.
