He's too loving classy for that poo poo. He needs to start grooming someone now. He had his chance and he would've won, but the "good guys" made sure that didn't happen. I'm thinking about joining the DSA instead of bitching to an internet forum. At least I can say I did something. Occupy Wall Street landed me in jail (I beat the charges), and I swore off activism because that poo poo was so loving disorganized.

It's a comedy forum. To make awful jokes on.

I was too much of a wimp to actually partake in Occupy outside of random supply help.

Honestly I thought if Trump was president people would wake the gently caress up. Nope, things just look even worse now, everyone is distracted by the news. Facebook is the worst, thanks for giving me all the news that you think I want to see. You know NASA just released some dope rear end photos of Mars, the other day. It's not a red wasteland, it looks cool as poo poo, multicolored formations and all this wild poo poo. Maybe I missed it but my friend had to show me this poo poo. It never showed up in my feed, and the mainstream media only wants to cover Trump. He's a loving retard we get it. We have all this access to knowledge and we know even less now. That would've been some front page poo poo back in the day. Now its a footnote, and everyone is gonna die thinking Mars is a red wasteland, because the news had to make up some fake poo poo about a koi pond or some poo poo. It's just ridiculous at this point and anyone who doesn't see it I feel sorry for.

Trump winning wasn't supposed to be a "wake up call". It was supposed to weaken corporatist dems. This has more or less worked. Rank is broken, they're doubling down, and generally in denial about what their constituents want. This allows groups like the DSA to pick and prod at their seats. It's not exactly going ideally as there is a certain kind of dem who is dedicated to the center right faux libertarian stance they currently have, theyre stupid as poo poo and an obstruction at this point.

Find me a story about someone setting themselves on fire in front of a public hospital and burning to death because they couldn't work them in for 3 months even though they had coverage. I'll wait.

My grandpa almost bled to death (he left a few pints on the floor) waiting about 6 or 8 hours in a hospital while having insurance coverage that ultimately did cover his stay.

He also got kicked out of the hospital a day after he was well enough to leave the ICU.

He's doing what Biden is, so we know he's running. With Biden running too, they can't play the old card.

Which is really a good thing because even though Bernie would be a one term president, probably, the dems are utterly spineless enough that a lot of them would shot to the left knowing it would get them elected.

A lot of dems stand to lose hard on Bernie's anti corruption lean. He would probably be blocking silicon valley mergers and generally going after pay 4 play poo poo as well. Many democrats would rather lose than hold office while bound to bernie.

This is from a few pages ago, but the argument that it's our job to pay for the rest of the world's socialized healthcare is the loving dumbest poo poo I've ever heard. I've heard this poo poo from conservatives my whole life and it's the dumbest loving argument. The notion is so loving ridiculous to the core that it's impossible to argue with since it's not based on any logic at all. gently caress the insurance companies, gently caress the pharmaceutical companies, gently caress the stupid universities, gently caress the doctors for buying into this poo poo, and frankly gently caress anyone who isn't for universal healthcare. I'm stuck at my stupid loving job because I have decent health insurance. I consider myself lucky. Why are we relying on our employers to provide basic poo poo when there is a surplus of labor? This model loving sucks, capitalism is not working anymore, and Democrats are a joke. Sorry for not lolling.
I've heard this argument unironically from a few people and it is absolutely absurd that anyone could push this argument as a justification for why americans have the highest consumer drug and medical prices in the entire world, including much higher than neighboring Canada.
