Oh yeah whatever happened to the Bernie REVOLUTION initiative that was happening after he lost the primary? Last I heard all the good staff left because Bernie put that bald dude with a beard that ran his campaign in charge of it or something?

The DSA is well on its way to quadrupling it's membership since the election and progressive groups are taking local politics over all over the country

They're also terrifying people like Schumer into voting correctly

our revolution had potential, but they made it a 501(c)(4), which basically made the entire thing useless since it can't coordinate with the campaigns it's endorsing.

The 2016 election is so simple to understand for people who aren't middle class internet nerds or gender studies majors.

People are pissed at DC and politicians in general. Hill was a "establishment" candidate and Trump was not. Look at the 2000 election for gently caress's sake. Look at the 2008 election even.

not really sure why that's great? there are legal structures that existed prior to citizens united that would allow grassroots organzations to coordinate with campaigns so that they don't duplicate mobilization/persuasion efforts. see this interview from one of the our revolution candidates that quit:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-adNZoiREsM

as someone who works in field, if someone said "hey i want to run a program where enthusiastic but not necessarily knowledgable out-of-state voters flood your state with phone calls without coordinating with your program" i would tell them to gently caress off, because 1. call quantity is not difficult to get, and they would only be annoying voters we had already spoken to on the same day and 2. we would not be able to ensure they received proper training on our campaign messaging, which could be counter-productive. i had a situation once where an independent expenditure decided to hire a call center to call into our state on our behalf, and i spent at least an hour every day explaining to people coming in with complaints that we literally cannot stop these people from contacting them even if we wanted to.

i don't think citizens united was a good thing, and the types of groups that were enabled by citizens united would similarly be poor legal structures for our revolution. in fact, our revolution's c4 status is only possible because of the CU decision. prior to CU, it would not have been able to endorse candidates!

Bernie isn't a master politician, he's an angry zaidie that has been ranting about this poo poo for the past 60 years and would still be doing it even if he got 1% of the vote.

He would have won because people are getting ground into the dirt by capitalism and they're desperate for any sort of change.

ding ding ding

Bernie isn't some super special awesome political genius, he's just a guy who sees it how it is and tells it how it is and doesn't really understand why everyone else hasn't gotten on board yet even though he's been preachin' it for a quarter-century

Her campaign staff thought Trump is Scary and Abuela is Obama v2.0 would be enough to turn out the vote.

She abandoned Abuela and then defended the same dictators that any other Democrat defended in the past, except this time Trump did it too so she's bad.
