“get out the vote.” We tried, they rigged it against Bernie twice.

Yeah I remember. I remember a lot of steam for Bernie and then a disappointing turn out as well.

Fuck Hillary but lets not pretend he was riding an overwhelming wave of support and a bunch of primaries were stolen from him. He consistently trailed her by like 30 points. I went to a couple of his rallies and donated so I remember, the fervor was nowhere near what MAGA has become right?

Also, that info was leaked by “Guccifer,” a Russian asset, so I’d be wary basing too much on that.

Isn’t it funny how you dismiss every thing that reflects poorly on the party you support? Despite the fact that the DNC did not dispute the contents? They sued over the release of the emails because they believe it interfered with the election. Maybe it did, maybe it didn’t. But they don’t deny the contents of the leaked emails themselves. I guess anything so that you can vote blue no matter who, huh?

I mean, fuck the DNC but there’s no viable 3rd party I can support this cycle.

The left doesn’t even exist in the U.S. How many active leftwing PACs or direct action groups can you name? Now how many rightwing ones? I gave and worked phones for Bernie. We need serious election reform, I agree.

I’m not some accelerationist who’s hoping for a Trump win that might spur on some collapse and eventual revolution. I’d prefer the non-violent revolution please and for now that means voting for Biden.
