Just got back from early voting. They put a big Medicare for All sign out front and surrounded it with all the candidates running that support it. Good idea for getting those downballot votes for people not following smaller stuff like health secretary, general assembly, etc. Normally they do that with candidate signs instead of issue signs, but nothing's polling higher than Medicare for All right now.

Insha'Allah, Bernie continues to surge

He said if it comes down to Pete vs Bloomberg he'll do the damned Pete dance ...He's right though. Bloomberg manages to be the worst of the worst and I can't stand most of these candidates.

BTW complaining about Bernie Sanders supporters is clearly propoganda because you can't say shyt about him. Imagine judging someone entirely on strangers he's never met. I've never seen this before. Yall fall for anything.

there is plenty of critique about bernie, biggest one being his lack of productivity as a senator, especially compared to the other senators running. and he's

Y'all "I was just about to support Warren before she went and actually tried to win, now I'm truly disappointed " dudes make me laugh

this is the crux of it, they were never going to accept someone challenging bernie in the progressive lane. some of them act like bernie straight up created all the policies he champions, no one else ever had those beliefs/thoughts before him, and in case someone else does believe in them, they shouldn't run and try to win because "it's his turn"....unless it's a handpicked bernie acolyte.

Harassment doesn't mean people noticing your corruption.

If we're keeping it 100, this is the root of the "Bernie Bro" myth.

Person X says some bullshyt and gets called out by Person Y online for it.

Person X hits the

Person Y is now billed as a toxic online harrasser by Person X.


Harrassment is doxing people, slurs, systematic manipulation of algorithms, etc. Harrassment is threats of physical violence or ACTUAL violence.

Harrassment is not someone challenging your statements and assumptions that you decided to broadcast to the entire world on a public forum.

Let me just say that, anecdotally, I've seen a lot of black folks switching from Biden over the last few months to all being Bernie fans. As Biden starts to sink with underperforming, maybe Bloomberg may pick up some steam but what I'm hearing from black people around me is Bernie Bernie Bernie.

I'm in the South btw. A lot of people by default were supporting Biden and that is starting to shift more from what I'm seeing. Not an avalanche or anything yet but its noticeable

one thing about all these white journalists & twitter talking heads is they need to realize they're just an untrustworthy on the subject of bloomberg's racism as bloomberg. they keep ringing the bell on his comments and s&f solely in an attempt to guide the black vote to someone they like, not because they care. they are the citizens and gentrifiers that get a mayor like bloomberg elected. liberal whites who are all "we are one" until they move into your neighborhood and call the cops on you because you're hanging outside of your own house, a place you lived for 20 years before them, the type to "neighborhood watch" certain people on apps like nextdoor, the type of cacs who populate citydata to help potential new residents know which street not to live south of

To be honest I think a lot of the resentment of Warren is due to the fact she is just more competent than him. These progressives can't rationalize that so they just attack her. She's done more as a Senator than he has in substantially less time. Her work as a Lawyer/Professor is drastically more impressive than anything he's ever done. He beats her in rhetoric and symbolism though which is what the grifters like and what the grifters like get's propagated down to the listeners.
