Et tu, Bernie?
A lot of people here seem to live in a Fantasy land where 95% of the US voters are well versed in Marxist ideology and the Republicans and Dems are only in power because all the Progressives are sitting waiting for the perfect candidate to emerge.
I wish I could find out where they get these ideas.
Progressive policies are popular. There’s a phenomenon where centrists pretend to be progressive in order to be elected and then do a heel turn.
‘Et tu Bernie?’ References this. And here I am having to explain very recent history to some lib in defense of some leftist/progressive I’ve never met because libs can’t take any fucking criticism during any fucking time. Maybe stop for a moment and engage some critical thinking. We weren’t happy to see biden drop out JUST because he’s old. Everyone was hoping for policy change, but that dreams gone, and Trump’s up in polls as a result…
Are you suggesting that poll numbers changed because some voters see Trump as more progressive than Harris?
I opposed Biden because of the genocide. Then I was excited about Kamala because I thought she would be better, but after a few weeks, it’s clear she does not represent a change from Biden. So now I’m apathetic again.
Bernie is literally saying Harris will say anything to win. Just like every other politician, how insightful.
