Why are people constantly blaming the systems of communism/socialism when it's actually the people running the system who are abusing it? And people failing the system isn't something that is unique to socialism/communism because capitalism has obviously had plenty of people who have abused the system for their own profit, but somehow that has turned into 'well they are self-made, so we should respect them and let them be in charge of everything!'

I mean I know that isn't really what this article is about that, but it just made me think about it.

Funny thing is, as Bernie was leading, we got very few delegate trackers in the media.

Now that Biden is leading, we'll see plenty.

If there were super delegates, we'd 100% be seeing those too.

Bloomberg could have hooked me up to one of those Peter Thiel blood transfusion machines and turned my health around. would probably just use my body for science experiments though

It's not impossible but I would not bet money on it. Biden so far hasn't really set forth a lot of concrete policy and I fear that his strategy is just going to be to out-insult Trump, which feels physically impossible.

There's probably people out there who would vote Trump over ~a socialist~ but who would run towards the opportunity to vote Biden over Trump.

maybe it’s just my (completely uninformed) train of thought that there are more people in the center who would “come home” to vote for biden than there are new/first time votes that sanders is supposed to bring in that as of now haven’t materialized in this primary season.

USAID has been used as a mechanism for "hastening transition," i.e. regime change.[157] USAID is known to have run a multimillion-dollar program, disguised as humanitarian aid, aiming to incite rebellion in Cuba. The program consisted of two operations: one to establish an anti-regime social network called ZunZuneo, and the other to attract potential dissidents contacted by undercover operatives posing as tourists and aid workers.[158]
