re: #132 Targetpractice

Darth, don’t bullshit me because I’m not in the mood. You know what Sanders has been doing since he lost because you’ve been on Twitter nodding along to it. He’s still out there spreading the Gospel of Bernie, telling folks that the key to future Dem electoral victories is to bring the “White Working Class” back into the fold by ditching “identity politics.” That the DNC lost because they didn’t do enough to address the “anxiety” of the WWC. And in so many ways basically saying the only reason the DNC lost last year is because he wasn’t nominated. He’s already back to branding himself as a party outsider, running next year as an “independent” while he preaches about the ills of a party he holds no loyalty to. His remarks about KS-04 pretty much fit the mold we’re familiar with: The only way the “revolution” can succeed is by co-opting the DNC, running on the party’s money, and if it fails then the party is responsible.

Okay, you have a point…he’s a bit of a self-promoter…who isn’t in politics? As far as WWC voters go, the Democrats probably still be fucking up that balance in 2020 because they’re a party run primarily by white people. Sure, they have MORE POC than the Republicans, but so does the Green Party.
