Summary
Senator Bernie Sanders is intensifying his fight against U.S. oligarchy, targeting wealthy individuals like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg.
Sanders argues that these billionaires manipulate the global economy, influence elections, and control the government, hindering democracy and exacerbating global inequality.
He believes this issue is crucial, impacting various aspects of society, including climate change, healthcare, worker protections, and poverty.
I mean yes. Is it me or does Bernie like to state the obvious sometimes?
Oh you think everyone agrees with that? If it’s obvious to you then the message isn’t for you
Too bad Bernie is a democrat. He will never be president.
Bernie isn’t a Democrat, he’s a registered independent who caucuses with the Democrats. That’s why the DNC hates him.
There’s nothing he can be to become president. Democrat was the only shot he ever had.
And the democrats failed all of us. Reason, and the appearance of hope has failed. All that’s left is reality, and the further rapid erosion of our systems under increasingly corrupt leadership that no longer feels that they should hide their indescretions.
Clearly defeating oligarchy isnt his most urgant issue considering he could have made a workers party in 2016, 2020, and 2024 yet every time he backed the Democrat candidate. He willingly gave up the fight and deserves no pity or attention.
oh yeah. losing elections would have changed things greatly. no third party is going to pull enough from the two current parties,
yeah or the reality we face today. the fact that republicans win at all indicates the problem. Yeah democrats are not what we would exactly want but republicans have gotten crazy comic villian level of bad and they still get in. If republicans were losing pretty much every election there would be a chance of a third party gaining traction but as it stands its a non starter.
The Dems lost anyway… If Bernie had started a party that did okay this time, it would do even better next time… Until it’s the Dems who are the “3rd party” and can either fall inline or get fucked
but the dems have won and a third party has never won and its bad enough having republicans in power half the time. having them in power for decades in the slight hope that they will be dethroned after that is the height of madness.
Considering Trump co-oped his rhetoric im pretty sure Bernie could have won without corporate support. He would have at least pushed the democrats to the left by threatening their left wing voter base. Or perhaps he would have convinced more people to vote who normally wouldnt have because the two options suck. Its easy for Bernie to say “wow I wish there was a workers party” but he literally could have made it and he has no excuse.
this same thing keeps being brought up with third party but it never happens. democrats lesson is the extreme left does not vote for them and going left does not help. Meanwhile rebublican administrations bring us more and more right and the dems oftentimes can’t even get us back to we were before another round of more right. could, perhaps but not really.
He needs to organize taking over the DNC and replacing the shills with real people. 3rd party can’t work unless the system is changed first.
I think he’s begging people to continue trying the peaceful route… One of my biggest issues with him is that he never really seemed to fully grasp the true depths the oligarchy will stoop to, and what would be required to stop them… He did nothing to stop the Clinton people’s bullshit, as though his mind just would not allow him to believe they’d do it, just accepted Clinton’s bullshit “victory” without fighting. Maybe that’s it… He has all the right ideas, he’s just not willing to actually fight, get dirty, accept that when dealing with sociopaths you have to assume they’ll do anything and prepare/act accordingly. Idk
Oh now it is.
Thanks Bernie.
Can this fossil just retire already?
