Official Bernie Sanders HQ: Not Me, Us!

[afterlife2009]

man i just saw a headline on status coup saying bernie pulls his cenk endorsement, smh, this has to be the sjw part of the left. oh you made a joke as a 20 something year old in a blog post, sorry cant back you now. i dont fukk with this move by bernie, i know theres a larger picture and you shouldnt die on the hill of cenk but still, its typical bullshyt by that portion of the so called left

Whatever you want to call it -- "professional class left" or "Professional Managerial Class" is going to ruin Bernie like they did Corbyn/Labour. He has these types in his campaign in his ear

One thing you hear from Bernie people is that he has an effect on people who would normally be hostile to left politics. They hate the Democrats but like Bernie and it's because they think he cares. This is the class war politics that the establishment HATES and why this new "left" is hedging their bets or concern trolling by "pushing Bernie left"

This "We need bernie to do better, less racist/sexist, we need push him to the left." crap is gonna be part of why he loses.

People love to call Jacobin a Bernie outlet and it is but they were trolling him hard on open borders back in April. Electoral suicide. This is lowkey why 2016 Bernie was underrated as a general election candidate because he had a more hardline stance on immigration and identity politics. And even if I agree with his new immigration stuff I know why it could be toxic in a general election. Whatever this new left wing is, is shyt.

Anyways, this is why it's tough for Bernie right now because there is no coherent "left" and Bernie's old school version of it doesn't fit in 2020 with the fake wokes. Once Bernie is gone, we will have a left movement run by upper middle class millennials running on intersectional socialism, a movement which will be indistinguishable from Human Resource department politics. We're fukked

I do have this sinking feeling that all the swing states will be swept up by Trump

If that's the case then how is the progressive movement any different than being a coastal elite in terms of viability?

im starting to think, and i know people have said it already but im more and more convinced its either gonna be biden or bernie. i also think and seder has mentioned this that if the nom is warren or bernie, bloomberg will run 3rd party. its so funny that nobody will care if he lets trump win, but the rethugs literally did a coup to have bush jr win but it was ralph naders fault, it was bernie and jill steins fault hilary lost. unity, but let even warren, still a neoliberal be the nom, and theyre all totally fine with having bloomberg hand it to trump cause god forbid they pay taxes. so were not even allowed warren at this point, not even the left of neoliberalism is acceptable. center of neoliberalism is the furtherest left you can go or youre a communist. fukk this country.

A Bloomberg 3rd party run may not hurt Bernie that much interestingly enough

The NYTimes put out a tom perez article out today and for anybody who's still confused about 2016.....

The D.N.C. Chairman Knows No One Is Happy. Neither Is He.
It’s a particularly fraught moment for Mr. Perez. But whoever took over the Democratic Party in 2017 was always going to have a lot of work to do. The D.N.C. reached its nadir when Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz was forced to resign during the party’s 2016 national convention after it emerged from hacked emails that she had helped rig that year’s primary to help Hillary Clinton, and had scheduled debates to limit exposure for Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont.

This is why I side eye all the "Bernie needs to better on black issues." Uhhhhh he's losing to Joe fukking Biden. The Clinton campaign and her media allies were evil, man. I agree with "what have you done for me lately" but the fact that they turned his radical organizing in the 60's as a negative was pure evil.

Idk why people lose their mind when you post Zaid tweets. He worked on Liz's 2012 campaign and at CAP. He has an interesting perspective even though he has some nuclear hot takes. I like that he's not like everybody else in the left liberal journalist blob.
