    Yeah, wake me up when they start arming and actually resisting.

    Rallies are fine but they’re not enough. Conservatives need to be removed from power.

    The capitalist systems that created this living hell need to be dismantled. We shouldn’t settle for homeless people on the street whole the ultra wealthy have private yachts and multiple mansions.

    Reminds me of the student-led protests going on right now in Serbia, where students and the opposition party both have this mutual agreement of “we’re both against the current regime and we both want good liberal things so we are aligned” but absolutely 0 cooperation, with the opposition sitting on the sidelines just occasionally cheering them on, with an expectation they’ll get put in power because who else is it gonna be.

    If this comparison isn’t just a misinformed delusion, then get comfortable with the way things are right now USA.

    Poor Bernie should be retired and living in Florida having sweaty octegenarian orgies, but instead America’s collective stupidity has been forcing him to try to single-handedly save the country from itself for the last 30 years.

      This is really pissing me off to be honest. How the hell is Bernie practically the only person worth a shit in government? We are so fucked as it is, let alone when the one person who actually fights for us kicks the bucket… :/

    He’s defending the Dems from a challenge on the left, by redirecting activist energy into the party. He’s done this before.
