I did a research paper this summer on this subreddit and there was a published study that found that 74% of attacks on Reddit came from 1% of source subreddits. I assume that subs like r/Drama are the 1%.
That's kinda lazy and repeated all the time Obama was pretty much right we can easily handle Russia by imposing sanctions that hurt Putin and his allies. We are so much more powerful economy there could never be a cold war dynamic again
Whats funny is hes an independent now so now the dems will be even more split. If bernie loses again the bernouts are going to vote for trump twice just to spite whomever beats him.
As a Dem, this is why I feel I need to vote for him in the primaries. Not because I think he will make a good president, but because Bernouts are man children and this is the only way to get them to vote.
Since the president of my country made constitutional ammendments that basically make him president for the forseeable future, iāll miss our crazy entertaining election drama, but at least now i can enjoy this.
Bernie Sanders was close to bowling over the most well funded and well connected power group in history (whatever the fuck you want to call Clinton's influence network) ... with one damn stump speech and numerous moments of inexplicable weakness.
All those aggressive Sanders activists have inched closer to positions of power everywhere. Now imagine him getting angry. Yeesh.
It's going to be glorious watching the Democrats eat each other alive, Trump get indicted midway through, Pence revealed to frequent gay prostitutes, and Comrade Jeb finally winning it all after a slow and steady campaign
Money is real tight and not I'm not getting paid till the end of the month, but dammit my $27 donation has been made. Can't put a pricetag on hope let's do this 2020
For all the whining Berntards did about āastroturfingā during the 2016 primaries, they failed to see that the āI JUST DONATED $27. MATCH ME!ā posts that hit r/all every single day is what actual, effective astroturfing looks like.
They love him... until big money candidate enters and wouldn't you know it all these accounts who don't post on reddit and now talking about how great big money candidate is.
I remember r/politics the moment Hillary lost. It was like a completely transformed place. All the hysterics about Trump were gone for the most part and the people left standing in the ashes were back to being spiteful because of the Bernie thing again. But I'm sure now the subreddit is totally organic.
It was even worse when Hillary beat Bernie. It was a 180 on the whole subreddit. They hated Hillary when Bernie was still in the race then suddenly everyone was a lifelong hilldog fan and never doubted her
Yeap, that day the shill accounts were activated all over reddit, not just r/politics. Subreddits with 1000 followers were receiving 12k upvotes, subs like fuckthealtright and r/esist became "popular" overnight. They stopped right after Hillary lost and were activated again after a few days. Ever since reddit has been a fucking shithole.
the bernie shills suddenly stopped, though then the mission became "overturn the result at the convention" and it kind of picked up a bit again. after the convention it became purely anti-Trump
tbh i'm still torn as to whether it was paid astroturfing or not. it felt like something was switched off 1) after the last primary and 2) when clinton collapsed. i was posting in /r/politics (as a clinton supporter) tons back then and it was very noticeable
but then if you're a bernie supporter and the last primary is over, maybe you just stop caring and stop posting religiously to /r/politics
Bernie had Revolution Messaging. They specifically do astroturfing. They even said "The team also nurtures and helps grow the communities on Sandersās already popular Facebook and Reddit pages" on their website in 2016
Bernie spent more on social than Hillbot. He paid revolution messaging close to 30 mil. It's a valid strategy but his act as some morally pure conscience of America bugs me.
There was a PAC (or it might have been a marketing company) called "correct the record" and they released a financial statement at some point detailing where they were spending their money, and they listed reddit - they literally admitted they were paying reddit.
There was a tiny bit of drama, then it was buried. The theory was that they purchased the politics sub, specifically to help Clinton get elected.
On the day she collapsed outside a rally and had to be dragged to a van, all the moderators of politics suddenly disappeared. There were threads about her collapse, and even threads *gasp* positive about Trump. It was like this for a few hours, then all the mods returned and it went back to normal. People theorized that the moderators were off in discord trying to figure out what their strategy was going to be with regard to the collapse video.
Are you mentally stunted or do you not understand how quotes work? He said that "(((they)))"""literally""" admitted (((they))) were paying reddit." I quoted that part and asked him to source it.
I already know correct the record was a thing you feverish brainlet.
I don't know about specifically paying reddit but their pitch was to respond to people on the internet to make people like Hillary so hard to imagine they wouldn't be on reddit.
CTR was actually just an attempt to do the social media Trump meme thing but for pro-Hillary memes. They ended up being so horrifically boring that nobody ever saw them, causing people to instead invent conspiracy theories about how CTR spent their money. It's fun to think the DNC might have done something smart like buying out reddit moderators, but in the real world they just threw that money into the garbage.
It was an underfunded and totally out in the open team of clumsy people with professional resumes trying to translate PR to politics as if totally unaware of what viral social media political trolling had become. As a Clinton supporter, I found it not only infuriatingly stupid, but totally undermining to the few legit supporters who had been battling online without any support.
It was more blatant than that. The weekend leading up to the collapse there was some gay Trump drama. After she collapsed, the initial wave of stories that Sunday morning were claiming she had heat stroke. Nobody was buying it so the narrative changed later in the day to pnemonia. The Monday after, all the stories on politics were about the Trump drama that people no longer gave a shit about. All the comments were freaking out about Hillary collapsing. The next day on Tuesday, there were no shilled stories or commenters at all and politics looked like it had before the election cycle even started. It was bizzare and the most obvious example I've ever seen of a subreddit being astroturfed. Then on Wednesday it was back to business and the narrative being pushed was how brave Hillary was for fighting through illness. Basically it took them two days to change gears and figure how to spin an event.
There was that one dude who was blatantly making sockpuppet subreddits and botting them to the frontpage, and after a few of them got banned he made /r/marchagainstnazis and just said fuck it and gave the first post on a brand new subreddit something like 60k upvotes in just a few minutes.
Buzzfeed and NYTimes told retarded bimbos and California soyboys that not supporting her is sexism and that she'll get rid off all the idpol boogeymen.
Middle aged housewives who pay attention to 24/7 news channels and have heard her lionized as some feminist icon since 1992 love Hillary.
Literally the reason my mom and her friends voted Hillary in the primary was because "she deserves a chance to lead after the things her awful husband did to her".
The "feminist" who stayed with her husband for political gain after he cheated on her with an intern in front of the whole world. The feminist who clings on to a long-dead marriage for power and financial gain. I'm not American, and I've always found her gross because of this. Whatever else comes out of her mouth is insincere because of it.
And lots of Bernie supporters demographics are younger versions of Trump supporters' demographics. I.e. progressive kids of Trump supporters. So they may be economic progressives now, but they were raised hating Democrats, hated Democrats all throughout 2016 and will turn into their Democrat-hating economic conservatives when they hit the critical age/asset ratio level at which young idealists turn into their parents
Or she was really smart, knows how to do stuff and did do stuff.
2016 style populism was all about anti-establishment male posturing and big promises that the populists who made them have no idea how to keep. Mexico's not paying for Trump's wall and America isn't going to turn into Venezuela for Bernie's young white male socialists.
People who don't get Clinton aren't old or knowledgeable enough to know the difference between a fake promise and someone who knows how to do shit. They're the political equivalent of the guy who thinks a girl who talks to him so long as he's picking up her bar tab at the time is a better choice for a 4-year GF than the one he has to get to know first.
When trump masturbate do you think he uses just the thumb and forefinger, or are his hands small eough that he can get a couple of fingers around lil Mr toadstool?
It's fucking hilarious that Trump and Hillary were literally the first and second last popular presidential candidates, ever. Man that was a weird election.
90% of slimeball news networks focus literally on nothing but trump bad hillary good for two years straight
People voted because the only choices presented were justin bieber vs. Nickelback. Half the nation chose to stay at home or vote third party, everyone else basically treated iy as another american idol with less stabbings.
pre-primary MU polling had Sanders (and even OāMalley) beating Trump easily, Trump beating Hillary, and Hillary beating all the (R)s who werenāt Trump.
Bernie came close to even with the other (R)s and lost to one of em IIRC, I think it was Rubio that beat him lol
neolibs long for an america that never existed, aka pre-trump where everything was fine and normal and nothing bad ever happened
typically neolibs had good lives then and have good lives now, but don't like having to read about border cages and sexism in the oval office, as if both those things haven't been going on since basically forever
hillary had a politically safe but still āprogressiveā platform, name recognition, a much more favorable public image whenever she wasnāt running for something, and would also be first lady prez
sheās also the only one of the three with actual foreign policy experience, but who gives a shit, thatās all neocon indoctrination anyway
Is that actually the case? Penis it more likely that once Hillary won the Bernie supporters became less vocal, and then the Hillary supporters become more vocal? They don't necessarily have to be the same people.
This is why /r/politics collective reaction to her collapsing at that 9/11 memorial was so funny. Instantly the place turned anti-Hillary for an afternoon while the shills were waiting for marching orders.
well yeah, once Hillary officially became the only (D) candidate, attacking her became politically disadvantageous even in the short-term, and defending her became advantageous
so youād have fewer people willing to criticize her and more people willing to downvote criticism of her
Ah yes, those were a good 24hrs. Just like the 12hr reprieve due to Hillary being thrown into a van like a side of beef. Or the temporary moment of sanity when Hillary put Pepe: An Explainer on this Racist Symbol on her campaign website (until the mods removed it).
You canāt convince me that Bernie isnāt Dumbledore and his supporters are like Dumbledores army who are fighting against professor Umbridge (Hilary), the ministry of magic (the DNC and mainstream supporters), the death eaters (Trump supporters and republicans) and He who shall not be named himself (Trump).
Every time we donate to Bernie, we show these villains that we will not be defeated, and that love will triumph over hate!
Lol, there's a pretty good reason why Donald Trump threw his support behind the Bernster during the Democratic primary, and I don't think it was because he was starving for a challenge.
Ultimately it was a reddit comment that really cemented my feelings on Bernie. A few years ago I, like many, had nothing but admiration for his integrity and progressive agenda - but I couldn't escape the impression that the sheen had come off. I couldn't really put my finger on why, but then I read a comment along the lines of "if you need the lead piping in your town removed, he's your man - leading the country, not so much".
That pretty much nailed it for me. As a "details guy" I imagine he's great, as your local congressman he'll come out to bat for you and get a particular problem resolved - but "big picture" problems, with all their nuances and the strategic compromises required to tackle them, not really his forte.
Trump is the president lol, what the fuck does it matter. If a literal mongoloid can stumble his shitty adult diapered self blindly into the presidency I could give a fuck less about ādetailsā. Anything is better than another smily faced fake Democrat corporate goon who will do nothing for anyone that isnāt paying him, or some dementia ridden Republican boomer grandpa rattling off the last thoughts of his dying brain as American policy.
Nah. I dunno if the DNC gives a shit what the voters think. Dozens of candidates are running, which will likely all but ensure that no consensus candidate emerges. If no candidate wins 2,026 delegates (out of 4,051), the DNC-appointed superdelegates decide the winner.
They barred superdelegate from pre-announcing their support this time (or voting at all if the primary is uncontested at that point), which looks like a positive reform vs 2016. But it also eliminates the pressure to pre-declare for any specific candidate, which increases the potential for backroom anointment in a crowded primary field.
Looks like they all love him again with strong messages of 'most popular politician' and all concerns about bernie bro's can be chalked up to russian trolls. Donation links abundant even caught one match me.
Looks like Revolution Messaging is firing on all cylinders.
Initially, yes. They'll worship him as commie mommy's great grandfather, but then Hillary Clinton will sneak cyanide in his state-issued pills and they will celebrate her womanly rise to power.
Going to be a lot of drama on this one. Last time in order to sow division peeps pretended to be for or against bernie, we got Bernie or bust bots that made Clinton supporters hate him.
People and bots are going to keep that stuff going.
You're right Democrats can't pull the anti-semetism card against Bernie Sanders. So they plan on pulling the race card against him as they did with Laura Moser in Texas.
Prediction, the DNC stabs him in the back again by rigging the primaries even worse than before because the DNC corporate shills would rather have Trump than an actual leftist as president, the Democrats implode and the orange man smugly wins the election again.
I forgot, before they do all that the Democrats will try really hard to use identity politics to paint him as racist and sexist. It won't go very well.
i predict that Kamala Harris will win the primary and the generals because she has so many identity boxes that this idpol shit might actually work this time around
Americans are retarded but not that retarded. Other than corporate and social media spamming this idpol shit to brainwash and distract the public it doesn't seem like the actual public gives a fuck about how many identity boxes she checks. Normal people are fed up with this idpol bullshit including Democrats who live outside rich pretentious shitholes like San Fransisco and New York.
i know you might get that impression if you get your opinions from anti-sjw retards on youtube, but overall idpol shit works in elections and it's played by both parties precisely because they know it works
Hillary might have lost, but she was bad at running for president period and she wasn't black
of course it's not the only thing that you need to win, but it can help tremendously
Idpol shit works for rightwingers because humans usually put self-interest first so telling a white majority that they're the good guys and that the Mexicans will come to fuck their wives works for a lot of them, especially the retards. It will never EVER fucking work if you tell them that they're the bad race that oppresses others and other stupid shit like that.
Obama and his campaign never made the mistake of focusing on idpol or telling people they're the bad apples, he couldn't because this divisive intersectional cancer wasn't popular back then amongst liberals, not in 2008 or 2012. The only ones obsessing over race were some insane rightoids that were making fools of themselves by repeating ridiculous Kenyan conspiracy theories. It didn't go well.
Obama didn't have to focus on it. It was a meme. Same thing as the "it's her turn" meme a lot of people fell for. Hillary's mistake was definitely the deplorables thing. But the idea that idpol doesnt work from the left is just nonsense.
Trump literally said that being or voting for a democrat is a mental illness - nobody even remotely gives a fuck
Hillary says that half of the Trump base are deplorables with a bunch of other qualifications - it's one of the worst out of touch comments of any politician of all times
like sorry but that shit outraged people because they wanted to be outraged, along with other things Hillary said, simply because she is not a likable character
Trump is memeing, he created the standard of the troll politician so he gets away with it. The standard has drawbacks, like constantly being ridiculed and not even being taken seriously by anyone with an IQ above 10 even if they're voting for him.
Hillary was trying to appear like a respectable politician, saying shit like that holds a different weight than when Trump says it because when a serious politician says it you take it seriously, when the orange shitposting man says it you know he's trying to piss off liberals and doesn't care if it's the truth or not. You might not consciously notice these differences but your brain does so you know deep down it's not the same.
This of course isn't in difference of the shitposting moron, but please don't pretend it's the same or that the public should have reacted differently.
I don't think you understand my point, I specifically talked about "left" idpol being a losing strategy, I'm obviously talking about focusing on or obsessing with identity politics like the blue checkmarks are doing are doing or Hillary's campaign tried to do, not just reacting or fighting back rightwing identity politics.
There's a difference between the two, one is aggressive and makes you look like a loon and the other defensive and makes the others looks like loons.
I still don't understand your point. The "I'm with Her" bullshit wasn't just a meme and it extended far beyond the slogan, it was an actual campaign strategy, they actually seriously accused and focused on accusing both Bernie supporters and collectively all Trump supporters or being racists and sexists. Also you haven't exactly explained what exactly was the "idpol meme" during the Obama campaign.
I don't think it's that idpol itself works particularly well, it's that baseline politics have always been about ethnic identity and voting blocs. Voting is about representation, and generally you want your interests represented by someone who at least looks somewhat like you.
I mean would you have called it idpol when the majority of the country was white and we only got white presidents? If so then idpol is meaningless since it describes politics since forever.
i'm sorry, but idpol shit either does not work for generals, or has no effect on generals
idpol has no effect on hispancis or african americans because they'll vote 70:30 and 95:5 regardless of basically anything, so what you're left with is the risk of alienating white americans (the largest voting population)
Idpol works well on certain minority groups and to woke mayos but outside of that I think it probably has a net negative effect.
Granted, it may still be better to use than to omit, but a lot of the democratic base is probably getting alienated, especially the ones not inside progressive cities.
You know, it doesn't even matter if burgers are dumb or not. There's a very small subset of people that actually have an effect on policy. Whoever wins is whoever serves those interests better. Everything else is a show.
It used to be a show, they've starting losing control of the narrative since the internet was popularized which is why Bernie and Trump exist. Which is also why they started heavily censoring the internet in a desperate attempt to silence anyone deviating from the narrative under the pretense they're doing it to save the public from "fake news". And unlike what we've been told they don't just censor rightwing heroes of free speech: https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2017/09/19/goog-s19.html
Lmao San Francisco is poor as fuck. Don't get me wrong, the tech bros are doing fine but the average person in San Fran has to decide if they want to live in an apartment or have all three meals a day
I predict Jeb! pivots left, campaigning on "practical liberalism" (contrast with compassionate conservatism). Sweeps the Dem nomination, wins every single electoral vote, and leads first the country then world in a glorious age of peace and prosperity.
This was never in doubt. Jeb! Is the second coming of Jesus, Buddha, MLK, and Gahndi. Mohammad is actual quoted as saying āinshallah, one day a man named Jeb! will become the leader, and will usher in the golden age of manā
Really, if I could compare Jeb! to anyone, heās the emperor of man from 40k before he was made a cripple.
Jeb! is beyond the left/right dichotomy. His political spectrum spans across higher spatial dimensions. He is actually president right now because he does not experience time as linear and occupies multiple timelines simultaneously.
the DNC corporate shills would rather have Trump than an actual leftist as president
not enough people realize this.
that's not even a controversial take, that's a literal fact. they might hate republicans, but at least they're playing the same game. they'd rather battle it out with them than have a rogue true lefty come in and flip over the table.
To be honest I really doubt he will win the primary for a number of reasons. However I like him running and think he should do so for the rest of his career because he often is the only progressive voice and he is able to steer the debate to more pressing concerns than if our economic growth has the right exponent. To be honest I can't wait until a candidate says we should limit growth for the good of the people and the planet.
I mean they probably don't have to do any active rigging at all with such a crowded primary field. If no candidate gets 50% of the delegates (tough order when every Democrat who's ever lived is running), then the superdelegates choose the winner.
Believe it or not he's only 5 years older than daddy. Don't get me wrong, orange man looks pretty fucking awful but he's pretty lively for a semi-senile old fuck
In the 2016 primaries, a bunch of Europeans, mainly Swedes and Brits, were active on /r/Sandersforpresident. They had this thing where anyone could volunteer to phone bank people to shill for Bernie.
Ultimately that meant a bunch of Swedish teenagers sending phonecalls to Midwestern American households trying to convince them to vote Bernie.
The self-righteous, self-absorbed, and self-appointed EnoughTrumpSpam people got their historical asses handed to them. I'm willing to spend whatever money I would've tossed on reddit gold to do the same to these bitter zeroes.
I mean I guess I'll be still coming here to follow up on the latest guerilla warfare between the democrats. How the sentiment shifted from Bernie circlejerk to Hillary was just so fascinating. The potential for drama this time is even higher with Bernie, Warren and Harris in the race. Someone already said Harris has the upper hand since she is black and a women, Trumps kryptonite. Like the women card worked in 2017.
I want to block /r/politics in /r/all but I can't because anything remotely related to Trump is banned from /r/news so I have to check in every once and a while to see what he's done this time.
I do, but Trump's idiocy is increasing at such an exponential rate by the time the paper is on my driveway he has already backtracked, denied and then restated whatever he just did 10 times over.
Did he really just say that he wants a fundamental and unprecedented transformation of the US economy?
Sigh. Let me go on record as saying that I clicked on this video with the most open of minds . . . maybe he'll want things to be fresh and good and non-partisan? . . . and I instantly got full-blown /r/socialism (which btw, has never been tried and if you disagree, I have several divisions of T-34s for you to talk to, capitalist running dogFN).
[FN] Are you suspicious that I used the phrase "capitalist running dog"merely to avoid ending a sentence with a preposition? If so, you are correct; also, get thee to a gulag.
Social democracy has been tried in several countries and it seems to work just fine for them. Honestly the most effective system is gonna be some hybrid of capitalism/socialism, its what made the 1950s/1960s the golden age in the usa.
I mean that's definitely why we pulled so far ahead of the rest of competition, but the many socialist post-war economic policies, such as the high taxes up to 91% in the 1950s and wages earned keeping up with inflation/productivity, led to creation of a very strong middle class(plus strong unions). It wasn't until the late 1970s/early 1980s when Regan started to dismantle many of those policies to protect corporations that we started to see decline that we now have today.
There is zero correlation between tax rates and revenue collected as a percentage of GDP. The US has collected more relative tax revenue over the last couple decades than it did when top rates were higher. Also, wages are keeping up with inflation. Not sure what decline you are talking about because people are definitely wealthier now than they were then. Income inequality doesnāt mean everyone is worse off.

Its not just simply about how much you tax, it also about who you tax. We are currently taxing the wrong people(poor people/working class) when we should be taxing the shit out of the mega rich(those with a net-worth in excess of 5 - 10 million) and corporations(including their environmental impact and used resources).
wages are keeping up with inflation
blatant lie
Not sure what decline you are talking about because people are definitely wealthier now than they were then. Income inequality doesnāt mean everyone is worse off.
GDP is too basic to be a good measurement for economic prosperity and doesn't take into consideration how that wealth is being distributed within a country. Also I disagree with the notion that people are better off then they were in 1950s/1960s, they didn't have trillions in student loan debt and could find careers easily with just a high-school diploma(my dad a retired cop who gets 95% of his pension for the rest of his life and currently owns four houses).
Poor people basically pay zero federal taxes. The middle quintile has an effective rate of ~10%. What are you even talking about, Chapotard?
I disagree with the notion that people are better off then they were in 1950s/1960s
The poverty rate was substantially higher in the 50/60s, the crime rate was higher, and life expectancy was lower. But now you need a bachelor's degree to get a decent job. Cry me a river.
Stereotypical neolib that serious/agenda posts politics all over reddit.
You spend way too much time in enough spam/circle jerk subs to take anything you say seriously, but listen up faggot, you can call me a retard, a tranny or even a libertarian, but don't ever call me a chapo, that just crosses the line. You kind of remind me of that absolute retard Dave Rubin and his incoherent rants on twitter about bernie.
what the economy tanked before reagan took office and continued to tank while he was in office, that is also a hilarious take on the 50s, I would attribute 99% of the us post war boom to either the general post war economy and the marshall plan.
Ah yes the 60s, a golden age of absolutley 0 civil unrest which definitely did not lead to the upheaval a general upheaval of dozens of traditional systems and American culture as a whole.
Also lmao @ the Eisenhower Era being a "hybrid of capitalism/socialism." Ike was domestically a continuation of Truman's cultural movement towards Suburban America. Maintaining New Deal policies is not even remotely 'socialist.'
Ah yes the 60s, a golden age of absolutley 0 civil unrest which definitely did not lead to a general upheaval of dozens of traditional systems and American culture as a whole.
People actually had the time/money to care about social issues.
Most social strife is born out of poverty, not wealth. You think the union advocates of the 1900s were well off?
Plus even if the hippies were well off that didn't at all translate to the blacks who were fighting for the civil rights bill being well off themselves
Yea, but not completely and I see the 1930s/1940s as economic strife bubbling to surface while the 1960s/1970s were more focused on social inequalities. Basically I think you have to deal with the economic issues before you have a lot of time to devote to the social ones. Of course you can tackle both at the same time, but the 50/60s saw the USA in one of our best economic positions and the I believe civil rights movement wouldn't have existed(or would have come about later) without that economic prosperity giving people the ability to get educated(college was basically free) and become "woke".
Except he doesn't want a social democracy. Bernie is a closet socialist that praised Venezuela and the Soviet Union. He adopted the social democracy meme to not immediately turn away every voter mildly interested in him.
man the next few decades are gonna be rough on you if you think bernie sander's milquetoast-ass, not even socialist platform is "full-blown r/socialism"
Take away their clothes and throw all of them into a small bathtub full of honey, the votes are equivalent to the soap they all manage to pick from the sin(k)hole.
All of the life savings he's gonna get in donations have been accumulated over the last four years and are meager as a result. I'm also not sure if his supporters have acquired new wives to sell to Saudi Arabian slave traders 4Bernie yet.
Lol, the American Democratic party is going to cuck themselves into losing to a career Gordon Gekko impersonator two elections in a row.
Dude is going to be "Breadline Bernie" the second he takes the nomination, and all that "most beloved politician in America" nonsense is going to evaporate into thin air along with his political relevancy.
'the most beloved politician by state' is such a bullshit measurement anyway, if he had 78% in say Florida, then it would carry some weight, but he is close in popularity to another Vermont senator nobody even knows or cares about - that's the case with virtually all low population homogeneous states
He did once invite Daniel Ortega on an official "state visit" to Burlington when he was Mayor. Unfortunately old Danny Boy was busy committing human rights abuses, but he did send someone in his stead who is rumored to have carried out political murders on his behalf. True story, you can look it up. Hardly the first leftist dictator he displayed fondness for either.
It would be so easy to render the man politically obsolete that it's not even funny... Well, it is pretty funny, but it probably wouldn't be for him.
The only reason he gets to carry on with the compassionate grandpa bit is because he's never been a serious enough player in a national election for any of his opponents to risk ostracizing his supporters by playing hardball with him.
Literally every "human rights abuse" done by the Sandinistas pales in comparison and is sometimes justified by the absolute brutality of the Contra opposition.
You're doing the equivalent of calling America an evil menace for bombing Japan, without considering the tens of millions slaughtered in WW2 by the Japanese Empire.
Which opposition figures did Ortega have executed? In 1981 and in 2018 protesters were killed in clashes with police, but I dare you to show me a Latin American country where this hasn't happened.
Literally every "human rights abuse" done by the Sandinistas pales in comparison and is sometimes justified by the absolute brutality of the Contra opposition.
You're doing the equivalent of calling America an evil menace for bombing Japan, without considering the tens of millions slaughtered in WW2 by the Japanese Empire.
all that "most beloved politician in America" nonsense is going to disappear within the first 10 seconds of the first attack ad someone takes out on him.
exactly this. all the "Bernie would have beaten trump"cels are forgetting that unlimited dark money and big data were able to turn Clinton from 'boring former senator and secstate' to a corrupt baby-fucking Satanist who stole the primary in a matter of months. someone who conservatives weren't able to take down after 20 years of investigations.
even if Bernie doesn't turn out to have any skeletons in his closet, 7 days of Clinton-grade weaponized bullshit might literally kill him.
No worries, he can make it up to the blue-collar voters by regaling them with the tale of how he once got kicked off of a leftist commune for being too lazy. I'm sure that will play well in the rust belt.
If he gets the nom, he's up against Trump. There is nothing that TRUMP of all people can say about Bernie and Russia. It's flat out ridiculous to say that any scandal any Democrat may have in their past is going to be a negative when they are going against Trump, who is on record about wanting to fuck his own daughter. Bernie faces real obstacles from his Dem opponents, but if he actually runs in the general election, what can possibly be said about him that can't also be said about Donald?
fyi he probably didn't. He went to sister city to Burlington in the Soviet Union on official business, but jokingly called it a honeymoon because he got married soon before the trip.
Going by historical precedent and looking at other presidents who used a wheelchair in office, I predict at least three successful terms, maybe a bit of a fourth.
While I'm sure its not legally possible...how fucking lit would it be for him to have A Lotsa Teeths run as his VP, win, then kick it? A 29 year old President? Yassss plz.
The Constitution is going to be getting some major bug testing in the next years, why not this? I have a feeling the SC would say you can't purposely set out to create a contradiction though.
Can't wait until all that donation money has to go to whoever the DNC decides, and to once again watch that old pussy roll over and start campaigning for them.
Well, r/politics is already inundated with neurotic individuals weaving elaborate delusional fantasies about repressing the opposition and every narcissist is pontificating like they've just been venerated as a cult leader. The histrionics of 2016 were just the prelude and appetisers to the sumptuous banquet of drama that is 2020.
I mean anyone can run as a Democrat or Republican, for the most part. But yeah, we're fucked, he's going to win the nomination and Trump will eat him alive.
I'm baffled he's running after the whole "thanks for shilling for an outsider candidate, I'm going to give all your money to the person you hate now" debacle, are his fans really okay with that?
Churchill was wrong, a conversation with the average voter is not the greatest argument against democracy. Instead, reading the comments on /r/politics is.
Democrats are going cuck him even worse than they did with Laura Moser. If there one thing Democrats hate more than Mayos then it a socialist Jew running for President.
Lmao this reminds me of the long dm I had with u/ shareblue. They literally just ask people to post stuff and act like you are part of some great resistance when you were just shilling for the most corrupt candidate possible.
Since his socialiat policies already piss of the mayos, I hope he runs under a full blown communist dictatorship platform this year, really get under their melanin deprived skin
What is with all the cutaways in this video? Did they need to shorten his statements into coherent sentences? Seriously, keep the camera on the guy who's talking.
Not going to lie, I cried. I have no faith left. My boyfriend was able to calm me down, to remind me that Bernie could still win California.
I honestly have no hope left. I honest to god don't think I'm going to be able to keep going if he doesn't win.
I know everybody says that, but I really mean it. I'm going on suicide watch. Fuck Hillary, and anybody who voted for her.
She doesn't give a fuck about the future of this planet.
I honestly don't know how I'll be able to keep going. I'm already planning going to the hospital if he doesn't win, because I will most likely try to take my life.
People hate discussing suicide, but there comes a point where it does seem better to be dead than to watch everything you love in life be broken Around you.

As a Dem, this is why I feel I need to vote for him in the primaries. Not because I think he will make a good president, but because Bernouts are man children and this is the only way to get them to vote.

All those aggressive Sanders activists have inched closer to positions of power everywhere. Now imagine him getting angry. Yeesh.

Yeap, that day the shill accounts were activated all over reddit, not just r/politics.

1 nomad1c 2019-02-19
tbh i'm still torn as to whether it was paid astroturfing or not. it felt like something was switched off 1) after the last primary and 2) when clinton collapsed. i was posting in /r/politics (as a clinton supporter) tons back then and it was very noticeable
but then if you're a bernie supporter and the last primary is over, maybe you just stop caring and stop posting religiously to /r/politics
1 Gonzzzo 2019-02-19
Bernie had Revolution Messaging. They specifically do astroturfing. They even said "The team also nurtures and helps grow the communities on Sandersās already popular Facebook and Reddit pages" on their website in 2016
1 preserved_fish 2019-02-19
Bernie spent more on social than Hillbot. He paid revolution messaging close to 30 mil. It's a valid strategy but his act as some morally pure conscience of America bugs me.
1 lcasebc 2019-02-19
There was a PAC (or it might have been a marketing company) called "correct the record" and they released a financial statement at some point detailing where they were spending their money, and they listed reddit - they literally admitted they were paying reddit.
There was a tiny bit of drama, then it was buried. The theory was that they purchased the politics sub, specifically to help Clinton get elected.
On the day she collapsed outside a rally and had to be dragged to a van, all the moderators of politics suddenly disappeared. There were threads about her collapse, and even threads *gasp* positive about Trump. It was like this for a few hours, then all the mods returned and it went back to normal. People theorized that the moderators were off in discord trying to figure out what their strategy was going to be with regard to the collapse video.

CTR was actually just an attempt to do the social media Trump meme thing but for pro-Hillary memes. They ended up being so horrifically boring that nobody ever saw them, causing people to instead invent conspiracy theories about how CTR spent their money. It's fun to think the DNC might have done something smart like buying out reddit moderators, but in the real world they just threw that money into the garbage.

It was more blatant than that. The weekend leading up to the collapse there was some gay Trump drama. After she collapsed, the initial wave of stories that Sunday morning were claiming she had heat stroke. Nobody was buying it so the narrative changed later in the day to pnemonia. The Monday after, all the stories on politics were about the Trump drama that people no longer gave a shit about. All the comments were freaking out about Hillary collapsing. The next day on Tuesday, there were no shilled stories or commenters at all and politics looked like it had before the election cycle even started. It was bizzare and the most obvious example I've ever seen of a subreddit being astroturfed. Then on Wednesday it was back to business and the narrative being pushed was how brave Hillary was for fighting through illness. Basically it took them two days to change gears and figure how to spin an event.

The "feminist" who stayed with her husband for political gain after he cheated on her with an intern in front of the whole world. The feminist who clings on to a long-dead marriage for power and financial gain. I'm not American, and I've always found her gross because of this. Whatever else comes out of her mouth is insincere because of it.

Nah, not to get too serious in /r/Drama, but Trump won white women in that demo, according to exit polls.
1 wonderful_wonton 2019-02-19
And lots of Bernie supporters demographics are younger versions of Trump supporters' demographics. I.e. progressive kids of Trump supporters. So they may be economic progressives now, but they were raised hating Democrats, hated Democrats all throughout 2016 and will turn into their Democrat-hating economic conservatives when they hit the critical age/asset ratio level at which young idealists turn into their parents
1 THOT-AUDITOR 2019-02-19
I'm talking about the middle aged housewives in urban centers, not the Fetanyl-Americans.
1 PM_ME_YOUR_DARKNESS 2019-02-19
Opiate addled housewives arguably decided the election, so I'm not sure it's fair to ignore them.
1 wonderful_wonton 2019-02-19
Or she was really smart, knows how to do stuff and did do stuff.
2016 style populism was all about anti-establishment male posturing and big promises that the populists who made them have no idea how to keep. Mexico's not paying for Trump's wall and America isn't going to turn into Venezuela for Bernie's young white male socialists.
People who don't get Clinton aren't old or knowledgeable enough to know the difference between a fake promise and someone who knows how to do shit. They're the political equivalent of the guy who thinks a girl who talks to him so long as he's picking up her bar tab at the time is a better choice for a 4-year GF than the one he has to get to know first.

pre-primary MU polling had Sanders (and even OāMalley) beating Trump easily, Trump beating Hillary, and Hillary beating all the (R)s who werenāt Trump.

seems like a pretty logical outcome tbh

1 vintermann 2019-02-19
Ultimately it was a reddit comment that really cemented my feelings on Bernie. A few years ago I, like many, had nothing but admiration for his integrity and progressive agenda - but I couldn't escape the impression that the sheen had come off. I couldn't really put my finger on why, but then I read a comment along the lines of "if you need the lead piping in your town removed, he's your man - leading the country, not so much".
That pretty much nailed it for me. As a "details guy" I imagine he's great, as your local congressman he'll come out to bat for you and get a particular problem resolved - but "big picture" problems, with all their nuances and the strategic compromises required to tackle them, not really his forte.
1 thedeevolution 2019-02-19
Trump is the president lol, what the fuck does it matter. If a literal mongoloid can stumble his shitty adult diapered self blindly into the presidency I could give a fuck less about ādetailsā.

1 DefectiveDetective 2019-02-19
Kamala Harris. The scandal is that she did things district attorneys do when she was a district attorney.
1 Arthanias 2019-02-19
The scandal is also that she refused to do district attorney things to Steve Mnuchin after receiving money from him.
1 dreamedifice 2019-02-19
Nah. I dunno if the DNC gives a shit what the voters think. Dozens of candidates are running, which will likely all but ensure that no consensus candidate emerges. If no candidate wins 2,026 delegates (out of 4,051), the DNC-appointed superdelegates decide the winner.
They barred superdelegate from pre-announcing their support this time (or voting at all if the primary is uncontested at that point), which looks like a positive reform vs 2016. But it also eliminates the pressure to pre-declare for any specific candidate, which increases the potential for backroom anointment in a crowded primary field.

1 DrPessimism 2019-02-19
Prediction, the DNC stabs him in the back again by rigging the primaries even worse than before because the DNC corporate shills would rather have Trump than an actual leftist as president, the Democrats implode and the orange man smugly wins the election again.
I forgot, before they do all that the Democrats will try really hard to use identity politics to paint him as racist and sexist. It won't go very well.
1 Tytos_Lannister 2019-02-19
i predict that Kamala Harris will win the primary and the generals because she has so many identity boxes that this idpol shit might actually work this time around
1 DrPessimism 2019-02-19
Americans are retarded but not that retarded. Other than corporate and social media spamming this idpol shit to brainwash and distract the public it doesn't seem like the actual public gives a fuck about how many identity boxes she checks. Normal people are fed up with this idpol bullshit including Democrats who live outside rich pretentious shitholes like San Fransisco and New York.
1 Tytos_Lannister 2019-02-19
i know you might get that impression if you get your opinions from anti-sjw retards on youtube, but overall idpol shit works in elections and it's played by both parties precisely because they know it works
Hillary might have lost, but she was bad at running for president period and she wasn't black
of course it's not the only thing that you need to win, but it can help tremendously
1 DrPessimism 2019-02-19
Idpol shit works for rightwingers because humans usually put self-interest first so telling a white majority that they're the good guys and that the Mexicans will come to fuck their wives works for a lot of them, especially the retards. It will never EVER fucking work if you tell them that they're the bad race that oppresses others and other stupid shit like that.

1 DrPessimism 2019-02-19

1 siempreloco31 2019-02-19
The biggest meme of the Obama election was idpol. Don't play dumb.
1 DrPessimism 2019-02-19
Obama and his campaign never made the mistake of focusing on idpol or telling people they're the bad apples, he couldn't because this divisive intersectional cancer wasn't popular back then amongst liberals, not in 2008 or 2012. The only ones obsessing over race were some insane rightoids that were making fools of themselves by repeating ridiculous Kenyan conspiracy theories. It didn't go well.
1 siempreloco31 2019-02-19
Obama didn't have to focus on it. It was a meme. Same thing as the "it's her turn" meme a lot of people fell for. Hillary's mistake was definitely the deplorables thing. But the idea that idpol doesnt work from the left is just nonsense.
1 Tytos_Lannister 2019-02-19
Trump literally said that being or voting for a democrat is a mental illness - nobody even remotely gives a fuck
Hillary says that half of the Trump base are deplorables with a bunch of other qualifications - it's one of the worst out of touch comments of any politician of all times
like sorry but that shit outraged people because they wanted to be outraged, along with other things Hillary said, simply because she is not a likable character
1 siempreloco31 2019-02-19
you can't have both TDS and nobody cares
1 DrPessimism 2019-02-19
Trump is memeing, he created the standard of the troll politician so he gets away with it. The standard has drawbacks, like constantly being ridiculed and not even being taken seriously by anyone with an IQ above 10 even if they're voting for him.
Hillary was trying to appear like a respectable politician, saying shit like that holds a different weight than when Trump says it because when a serious politician says it you take it seriously, when the orange shitposting man says it you know he's trying to piss off liberals and doesn't care if it's the truth or not. You might not consciously notice these differences but your brain does so you know deep down it's not the same.
This of course isn't in difference of the shitposting moron, but please don't pretend it's the same or that the public should have reacted differently.
1 DrPessimism 2019-02-19
I don't think you understand my point, I specifically talked about "left" idpol being a losing strategy, I'm obviously talking about focusing on or obsessing with identity politics like the blue checkmarks are doing are doing or Hillary's campaign tried to do, not just reacting or fighting back rightwing identity politics.
There's a difference between the two, one is aggressive and makes you look like a loon and the other defensive and makes the others looks like loons.
1 siempreloco31 2019-02-19
I don't think you understand mine. This is a meme, as in not real.
1 DrPessimism 2019-02-19
I still don't understand your point. The "I'm with Her" bullshit wasn't just a meme and it extended far beyond the slogan, it was an actual campaign strategy, they actually seriously accused and focused on accusing both Bernie supporters and collectively all Trump supporters or being racists and sexists. Also you haven't exactly explained what exactly was the "idpol meme" during the Obama campaign.
1 siempreloco31 2019-02-19
Hillary's level of idpol obsession was on par with Obama's except for one point when she called the other side a basket of deplorables.
1 Zeriell 2019-02-19
I don't think it's that idpol itself works particularly well, it's that baseline politics have always been about ethnic identity and voting blocs. Voting is about representation, and generally you want your interests represented by someone who at least looks somewhat like you.
1 Tytos_Lannister 2019-02-19
that's literally what idpol is lol
1 Zeriell 2019-02-19
I mean would you have called it idpol when the majority of the country was white and we only got white presidents? If so then idpol is meaningless since it describes politics since forever.
1 Tytos_Lannister 2019-02-19
well it also was statistically more likely for a mayo to be elected when mostly mayos were around
i guess it does
1 BUILDWALL 2019-02-19
i'm sorry, but idpol shit either does not work for generals, or has no effect on generals
idpol has no effect on hispancis or african americans because they'll vote 70:30 and 95:5 regardless of basically anything, so what you're left with is the risk of alienating white americans (the largest voting population)
1 IHeartCommyMommy 2019-02-19
Idpol works well on certain minority groups and to woke mayos but outside of that I think it probably has a net negative effect.
Granted, it may still be better to use than to omit, but a lot of the democratic base is probably getting alienated, especially the ones not inside progressive cities.
1 SpiceAndEvNice 2019-02-19
You know, it doesn't even matter if burgers are dumb or not. There's a very small subset of people that actually have an effect on policy. Whoever wins is whoever serves those interests better. Everything else is a show.
1 DrPessimism 2019-02-19
It used to be a show, they've starting losing control of the narrative since the internet was popularized which is why Bernie and Trump exist. Which is also why they started heavily censoring the internet in a desperate attempt to silence anyone deviating from the narrative under the pretense they're doing it to save the public from "fake news". And unlike what we've been told they don't just censor rightwing heroes of free speech: https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2017/09/19/goog-s19.html

1 inkoDe 2019-02-19
To be honest I really doubt he will win the primary for a number of reasons. However I like him running and think he should do so for the rest of his career because he often is the only progressive voice and he is able to steer the debate to more pressing concerns than if our economic growth has the right exponent. To be honest I can't wait until a candidate says we should limit growth for the good of the people and the planet.
1 dreamedifice 2019-02-19
I mean they probably don't have to do any active rigging at all with such a crowded primary field. If no candidate gets 50% of the delegates (tough order when every Democrat who's ever lived is running), then the superdelegates choose the winner.

I mean I guess I'll be still coming here to follow up on the latest guerilla warfare between the democrats. How the sentiment shifted from Bernie circlejerk to Hillary was just so fascinating. The potential for drama this time is even higher with Bernie, Warren and Harris in the race. Someone already said Harris has the upper hand since she is black and a women, Trumps kryptonite. Like the women card worked in 2017.

Did he really just say that he wants a fundamental and unprecedented transformation of the US economy?
Sigh. Let me go on record as saying that I clicked on this video with the most open of minds . . . maybe he'll want things to be fresh and good and non-partisan? . . . and I instantly got full-blown /r/socialism (which btw, has never been tried and if you disagree, I have several divisions of T-34s for you to talk to, capitalist running dogFN).
[FN] Are you suspicious that I used the phrase "capitalist running dog"merely to avoid ending a sentence with a preposition? If so, you are correct; also, get thee to a gulag.
1 MrWalrusKing 2019-02-19
Social democracy has been tried in several countries and it seems to work just fine for them. Honestly the most effective system is gonna be some hybrid of capitalism/socialism, its what made the 1950s/1960s the golden age in the usa.
1 trilateral1 2019-02-19
what made the 1950s/60s the US' golden age was that every other developed country was demolished by WWII.
1 MrWalrusKing 2019-02-19
I mean that's definitely why we pulled so far ahead of the rest of competition, but the many socialist post-war economic policies, such as the high taxes up to 91% in the 1950s and wages earned keeping up with inflation/productivity, led to creation of a very strong middle class(plus strong unions). It wasn't until the late 1970s/early 1980s when Regan started to dismantle many of those policies to protect corporations that we started to see decline that we now have today.
1 Diligent_Chad 2019-02-19
There is zero correlation between tax rates and revenue collected as a percentage of GDP. The US has collected more relative tax revenue over the last couple decades than it did when top rates were higher. Also, wages are keeping up with inflation. Not sure what decline you are talking about because people are definitely wealthier now than they were then. Income inequality doesnāt mean everyone is worse off.
1 MrWalrusKing 2019-02-19
Its not just simply about how much you tax, it also about who you tax. We are currently taxing the wrong people(poor people/working class) when we should be taxing the shit out of the mega rich(those with a net-worth in excess of 5 - 10 million) and corporations(including their environmental impact and used resources).
blatant lie
GDP is too basic to be a good measurement for economic prosperity and doesn't take into consideration how that wealth is being distributed within a country. Also I disagree with the notion that people are better off then they were in 1950s/1960s, they didn't have trillions in student loan debt and could find careers easily with just a high-school diploma(my dad a retired cop who gets 95% of his pension for the rest of his life and currently owns four houses).

This is your brain on Chapo: The goal of taxation isn't to raise revenue for the government, it's to punish rich people.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income_tax_in_the_United_States#Effective_income_tax_rates
Poor people basically pay zero federal taxes. The middle quintile has an effective rate of ~10%. What are you even talking about, Chapotard?
The poverty rate was substantially higher in the 50/60s, the crime rate was higher, and life expectancy was lower. But now you need a bachelor's degree to get a decent job. Cry me a river.

Also lmao @ the Eisenhower Era being a "hybrid of capitalism/socialism." Ike was domestically a continuation of Truman's cultural movement towards Suburban America. Maintaining New Deal policies is not even remotely 'socialist.'

1 Sarge_Ward 2019-02-19
Most social strife is born out of poverty, not wealth. You think the union advocates of the 1900s were well off?
Plus even if the hippies were well off that didn't at all translate to the blacks who were fighting for the civil rights bill being well off themselves
1 MrWalrusKing 2019-02-19
To be honest I think you are confusing economic strife and social strife.
1 Sarge_Ward 2019-02-19
The two are just about intertwined
1 MrWalrusKing 2019-02-19
Yea, but not completely and I see the 1930s/1940s as economic strife bubbling to surface while the 1960s/1970s were more focused on social inequalities. Basically I think you have to deal with the economic issues before you have a lot of time to devote to the social ones. Of course you can tackle both at the same time, but the 50/60s saw the USA in one of our best economic positions and the I believe civil rights movement wouldn't have existed(or would have come about later) without that economic prosperity giving people the ability to get educated(college was basically free) and become "woke".

Lol, the American Democratic party is going to cuck themselves into losing to a career Gordon Gekko impersonator two elections in a row.
Dude is going to be "Breadline Bernie" the second he takes the nomination, and all that "most beloved politician in America" nonsense is going to evaporate into thin air along with his political relevancy.
1 Tytos_Lannister 2019-02-19
'the most beloved politician by state' is such a bullshit measurement anyway, if he had 78% in say Florida, then it would carry some weight, but he is close in popularity to another Vermont senator nobody even knows or cares about - that's the case with virtually all low population homogeneous states
1 CPT_Clarnence 2019-02-19
He did once invite Daniel Ortega on an official "state visit" to Burlington when he was Mayor. Unfortunately old Danny Boy was busy committing human rights abuses, but he did send someone in his stead who is rumored to have carried out political murders on his behalf. True story, you can look it up. Hardly the first leftist dictator he displayed fondness for either.
It would be so easy to render the man politically obsolete that it's not even funny... Well, it is pretty funny, but it probably wouldn't be for him.
The only reason he gets to carry on with the compassionate grandpa bit is because he's never been a serious enough player in a national election for any of his opponents to risk ostracizing his supporters by playing hardball with him.
1 Vladith 2019-02-19
Literally every "human rights abuse" done by the Sandinistas pales in comparison and is sometimes justified by the absolute brutality of the Contra opposition.
You're doing the equivalent of calling America an evil menace for bombing Japan, without considering the tens of millions slaughtered in WW2 by the Japanese Empire.

1 Spurdospadrus 2019-02-19
exactly this. all the "Bernie would have beaten trump"cels are forgetting that unlimited dark money and big data were able to turn Clinton from 'boring former senator and secstate' to a corrupt baby-fucking Satanist who stole the primary in a matter of months. someone who conservatives weren't able to take down after 20 years of investigations.
even if Bernie doesn't turn out to have any skeletons in his closet, 7 days of Clinton-grade weaponized bullshit might literally kill him.

Bernie faces real obstacles from his Dem opponents, but if he actually runs in the general election, what can possibly be said about him that can't also be said about Donald?

I'm baffled he's running after the whole "thanks for shilling for an outsider candidate, I'm going to give all your money to the person you hate now" debacle, are his fans really okay with that?

Churchill was wrong, a conversation with the average voter is not the greatest argument against democracy. Instead, reading the comments on /r/politics is.

Now we just need Hilldawg to run and this will be the most entertaining year of the century.

I bet if a republican like Trump implemented all of Bernie's ideas everyone would love it. You love socialist ideas until you realize its socialism
1 redblaze17 2019-02-19
Democrats are going cuck him even worse than they did with Laura Moser. If there one thing Democrats hate more than Mayos then it a socialist Jew running for President.

Lmao this reminds me of the long dm I had with u/ shareblue. They literally just ask people to post stuff and act like you are part of some great resistance when you were just shilling for the most corrupt candidate possible.

Welp here's to another 4 years of Trump, because all the Bernie idiots are going to refuse to vote Democrat when he loses again.
We need less people in their 60's / 70's running for president.

Not going to lie, I cried. I have no faith left. My boyfriend was able to calm me down, to remind me that Bernie could still win California.
I honestly have no hope left. I honest to god don't think I'm going to be able to keep going if he doesn't win.
I know everybody says that, but I really mean it. I'm going on suicide watch. Fuck Hillary, and anybody who voted for her.
She doesn't give a fuck about the future of this planet.
I honestly don't know how I'll be able to keep going. I'm already planning going to the hospital if he doesn't win, because I will most likely try to take my life.
People hate discussing suicide, but there comes a point where it does seem better to be dead than to watch everything you love in life be broken Around you.
I just don't know how much I have left in me.
