    The level of shamelessness to say I think healthcare is a human right without backing M4A and to the guy who championed it is amazing

    idk why they think the fear-mongering is still gonna work after nearly 4 years. everyone who lives in reality knows we’re completely fine.

    Let’s be real. Bernie fizzled out. You blame the DNC all you want, but he really failed on selling his message when questioned on it down the stretch.

    The DNC actually didn't f*** him that bad this time.

    His loser young supporters couldn't get off their ass to vote and instead blame old people for everything lol. The black community didn't buy into any of his bullshit.

    He got his ass beat worse this time than 2016.

    Yeah I promise you the majority of voters aren’t thinking about the election that strategically. People just voting based off name recognition and public speaking ability.

    Bernie’s ideas aren’t considered fringe among his base, but they are still fringe ideas among a fair amount of people in the general public. Voters unfamiliar with Bernie’s ideas are going to be skeptical and if you can’t 100% sell them on it and break down how it will work in detail people aren’t going to get behind it. They’ll go for the more neutral option.

    only bc weirdo narratives like “how ya gonna pay for it ???” get pushed towards people who think that really is an argument against common sense policies the majority of people support despite politician

    Right, and that’s a common question despite most people having no clue how money is spent in government. I’m sure Bernie had an extremely detailed plan on how to pay for things like healthcare and education, but if you can’t take those details and package it in a way that everyday moderate voters will understand and want to support than you can’t win a major election.

    this is true but i’m basically saying the entirety of the burden is placed solely on bernie despite the fact other candidates can speak in platitudes or offer promises in vague ways which sort of exempt them from explaining further. it’s sort of bc bernie came with a substantive plan that it became such a focus, since other candidates could rarely measure up in their ambitions and policies.

    this is of course discounting the obvious media bias which just exacerbated the narrative

    bernie forgot he was in the “imma beat trump!” race and not the “imma be president!” race

    Pretty enjoyable seeing libs and conservative turds obsess over Bernie's failings more than his supposed "bros". Projecting your cult of personality onto people organizing around ideas and not figureheads is so weak.

    I honestly don't get the fatalism some socialist leaning people are indulging in. A semblance of a leftist party is more existent in this country than it has been in like 50 years. Feels good. Haters madder than ever.
