Yeah this is what I was referring to. I don't believe her.
Yeah I know that is a sore spot for some. For Bernie to be put on front street in front of the nation. I admit I was shocked to learn he was a raging sexist too. But I understand the sexism probably came from a good place I suppose :sas2:

But let’s not re litigate all the reasons why Bernie failed to capture the heart of the nation in 2016 and 2020 and focus back on 2028

I hope I live long enough to see a native American president in my lifetime. :salute:

Your whole premise is silly. Just because his cousin said he’s a conservative doesn’t mean he is, that’s his opinion. Bernie Sanders would be a conservative in Karl Marx eyes. I’d be willing to wager if you ask his daughter she’d say he’s center left
1) His cousin is a her, not a him.

2) Why would she lie about his political affiliation? This convo came up because Cyrus is her baby daddy. And he's HEAVY right leaning.

3) And I'm sure his daughter would say he's center left too. Wanna know why? Not because he is, but because she leans left.. and she knows first hand how the world looks at these conservative fukks. She has a good relationship with her dad. Why would she want that?

:manny: I don't know. You referring to something specific?

To be clear, I think she allowed herself to be one of those pieces. Not saying it was specifically her fault just that she was moving foolishly.
We got lina khan and everyone in regulatory in fine with it, we would have gotten nothing. Establishment was dead set on winning that election no matter what

Bernie was right - Joy Anne Reid.



No shyt Sherlock, but you ran a smear campaign against him when you knew better. Like you knew better, shared his beliefs and still decided to run a smear campaign. Now that you are out at MSNBC, you want to tell the truth? :camby: I look forward to the whole liberal establishment admitting that they were wrong about Israel and Gaza five years fom now when it doesn't matter. :pacspit:

I think this is the wrong takeaway from her admission, and overall, it’s not a helpful framing if the goal is to see any real progress from the left in this space. Her thesis at the time actually aligned with how many Americans were feeling—whether people want to admit that or not. It also didn’t help that the so-called Bernie Bros were engaging in “my way or the highway” politics, often alienating potential allies with their rigidity and hostility. She stated that she agreed with Bernies take on capitalism was correct, but his blind spots to race was inexcusable which even I at that time agreed with. To be fair, I think a lot of people learned valuable lessons from that era. Even Kyle acknowledged that the worst Democrat is still better than a Republican, which speaks volumes about how the stakes have shifted. And if you actually listened to the interview, Joy has consistently been on the right side of the Gaza issue. Her stance has been principled and clear, even when others wavered.

How do democrats defeat this?

By not allowing billionaires to purchase every single social media platform and regular media with right wing algorithms. This has been a problem, and no trending on some right wing platforms isn't going to happen. The left is a decade behind which may be too late.
