We could have had Bernie. I can’t even imagine how different so many things would have been…
We weren’t allowed to have him, some rich people would have slightly less money.
Ohhh fuck thats right I forgot my oligarchal overloads for a minute
Who do I vote for so rich people can have a lot less money?
That’s the fun part. You can’t. They have had studies since the '70s that show that if they’d pay everyone a thriving wage, they’d be even richer than they are. Funny thing, when the working class has disposable income we buy shit. They are no longer interested in their net worth. The new high score is how many people they can kill with needless suffering before we realize that scarcity actually disappeared in the '70s, and everyone should be living their best life, and we decide to kill them back.
I think rfk is running on that
Lol. Lmao even.
Sanders lost by over 1000 delegates or around ~3,700,000 out of ~30,000,000 total voters.
He lost pretty heavily in most populous states.

I’m aware of the results. Are you aware of super delegates and how they skewed the reporting? Many people were discouraged from even voting because the polls showed Hillary with a commanding lead before the public voting even began. The DNC pushed Hillary through because they felt it was “her turn”. Idk about anyone else but I felt completely disenfranchised by their actions during those primaries.
They also fought pretty hard against giving Bernie any screen time or any attention to keep it all on Hillary. I felt that the DNC decided who it was going to be before he even had a chance.
What do you mean?? Don’t you remember as soon as he seemed to have a lead every supposed “lIbErAl MeDiA” propaganda outlet ran with “Bernie loves Castro!” “Bernie said a nice thing about Cuba! Communism!! Communism!!! Beeee afraiddddd!!”
I’d be feeding my cat so much more salami.
Never let your cat forget that a better world is possible. ✊🥲
I voted for Sanders in the 2016 primary, but at this point I think he would have been destroyed, McGovern-style, if he’d been the nominee either time. He never had to face a truly negative campaign in the primaries and there’s no telling how he would have fared if Republicans (and some Democrats!) really twisted the knife with stuff like “the rape essay”, his employment history, his association with socialism, etc. We made out so much better with a moderate-seeming guy like Biden who managed to secure most of what Sanders would have been realistically able to pass while giving it a nice centrist sheen.
Nah, Bernie could have been great
The polls at the time showed him doing better against Trump than Hillary, given that he would bring out the progressive vote along with the usual dem vote. Which is why him getting railroaded out by the “her turn” group was such a blatant travesty. And why I blame them for Trump getting elected.
People forget that there was a sizable “Bernie or Trump” crowd as well. Essentially people that just want ANY change from the permanent status-quo we’ve had for the last 30-40 years.
There were a couple of people who loudly said that before the election, but afterwards it turned out to be a negligible number of people who actually meant it.
Could’ve lost the middle ground undecideds.
Oh well. They get constant catering by dems and they’re really just Republicans anyway considering how far to the right “the middle” is around here.
I mean looking at how elections have gone in the US, the undecided between the two parties often decide the elections. It’s a fairly important group to cater to if you’re all about winning.
Is she really suggesting cats should only eat processed garbage cat food their whole lives? Reason #744 to support Bernie!
I remember how much this pleased me at the height of Bernie’s campaign. :(
Based Bernie, per usual
Bernie being pro-cat even though they can’t vote is very in character, standing up for the maginalized
Israel is trying to figure out how to call him anti-Semitic
My cat when it sees me opening the fridge: I am once again asking for your salami support.
This is my cat anytime I’m in the kitchen. She thinks that the sole purpose of that entire space is to store her food.
Try telling your cat that salami isn’t possible because of gridlock in Congress.
Salami seems awfully salty for cats
They can get hydration out of ocean water. Little sadistic fuckers have really good kidneys. I doubt a small amount of salami will harm them.
If cats can eat grass, entire mice, and weirdly even potato chips then I’m pretty sure salami is fine
Cats don’t handle salt well, they have very sensitive kidneys.
