Real Esquire, Not the Magazine
Listen fam I tried to let it go but you still posting in this Elizabeth Warren thread trying to explain to me how I’m not really about progress because the media has me fooled into thinking Elizabeth is a better candidate than Bernie.you dont really beleive she's a better candidate. you dont. but the media has tried to push that narrative.
or i should say. she is a better politician for those that want a little change but not too much. you know the types, those that are doing well for themselves financially already but do realize these super rich have gone too far. you're not a biden voter idiot.
But if you realize how bad it actually is. and you realize the kind of movement that old man bernie started a few years back when everyone swore he couldnt have a movement, and he couldnt move the needle. to now the entire primary pretty much being an indictment on bernie's policies. every other question asked is more or less "do you agree with bernie on this? Yes or No"
when someone can pull that off that has an insane decades track record and you've seen him actually pull up on these companies and with the movement make them do something that they would not have done without the public pressure. pretty much there is no current day better candidate for the job. period.
Thats if you Truly care about ALL american citizens not just some and just want to feel good.
and why choose a movement with heavy policy changes (bernie) over supposed just heavy policy changes(warren)?
Because a movement of the people will keep it so that when sanders is out of office and liz is out of office this will continue. you need to wake people up. not politicians. the people control the politicians when they are WOKE. When they are asleep the corporations and super rich control the politicians. you see how that works? this is not new. we are in a time loop. we did this before. its called FDR. Thee exact thing was going on back then. to many rich rich people and big companies taking all the slices of pizza until the PEOPLE fought back. This is THEE only way to maintain the momentum after liz and old bernie is gone. Bernie is just a dude, but he represents people on the front lines actually fighting for their rights.
Its lowkey like asking would i rather vote for bill clinton(when he came into office) or a white martin luther king jr. even after being in the so called good times during bill's tenure. I would still rather vote for king because it will last a very long time. That fighting for the people stuff is what gave you unions, which helped non union workers as well receive proper wages. This is bigger than not trump or even someone a little progressive.
First, try not to insult the person you are trying to convince. How can you be well received if you lead with the idea that I can’t really believe she is the better candidate and the media just has me fooled. If I’m too dumb to make my own decisions why bother engaging with me.
Second, I get your point. You don’t like Liz because you believe Bernie is a more authentic progressive candidate. I actually got your point 20 posts ago. You have posted more in this thread than the Bernie thread. I get that you don’t like Liz, but why spam the thread trying to downplay Liz. Go to the Bernie thread and extoll his virtues.
Third, throughout your posts in this thread, you have never asked why someone prefers Warren to Bernie but I will tell you why I do. I’m a black man. Bernie seems to have solutions for many demographics but is unwilling to provide any concrete plans for black people because he doesn’t want to get into identity politics. It’s intellectually dishonest. Either you are willing to do the big things or you are not. I can’t have a candidate telling me by his priorities that healthcare is important and we must do all we can but black issues are not. His “rising tides lift all boats” approach is insufficient in comparison to the very specific policy proposals Warren has provided. While I’m sure Warren is not perfect on black issues she has more than won me over based on that aspect of her campaign.
Fourth, don’t feed the ducks.
