With the threads not being siloed off "containment zones" it would just be kind of annoying for most people, I would think.

Why did the containment zone bother you? Also not being snarky.

I knew there was a convention thread, I'd even read it. Just not contributed since I'm not attending the convention or terribly interested in protest methods. I was just making a free speech zone joke since the Bernie thread got shut down.

Bernie struts into the Green Room, looks Obama straight in the eye, says:
I control the votes of a sizable majority of Americans under the age of 30. If I'm going to endorse Hillary, you're going to make it worth my while. I'll need the following:
a) single payer health care adopted into the Democratic platform, enough of this Obamacare nonsense
b) a cabinet position in the Hillary administration for my acolyte Tulsi Gabbard
c) you'll need to pardon to Assata
d) the Democratic Party needs to renounce corporate donors! become a party of the people!
e)
But then Obama interrupts and is like how bout this gift certificate to Bob Evans. Bernie syas "Deal." Walks out chuckling and shaking his head. "What a sucker, I was gonna endorse her anyway!" The End.

quote:


Other countries have multiple parties because they arrange their governments in such a way that voters aren't penalized for voting for spoilers. Ours isn't arranged that way. Other countries form a coalition after the voting takes place. We form our coalition's before voting and then vote on the coalition. As someone that was on the fence up until election day, I have to say that Sanders supporters were much more vocal about their opposition to Clinton than vice versa. The Sanders subreddit essentially turned into a Hillary bashing subreddit. Look at her "on the issues" page and tell me what about her stances makes you feel that a protest vote is more worthwhile than voting for the coalition that has been fighting for racial, gender and economic equality for the past 50 years.

it's gonna suck when he endorses her, even though i understand.

some ppl say that's gonna make everybody apathetic but i dunno. i think most people understand how that all works. and lots of people are already interested in looking at what's going on around them locally-- i know i didn't care much about rhode island politics until this election. that isn't going to change just because bernie endorses hillary lmao

like yes the reddit contingent will throw a fit over it

but that's reddit. throwing fits is what they do best.

i think some ppl get a little touchy about jokes at bernie's expense b/c there's a lot of actual :smug: and :bahgawd: stuff thrown around already, so ppl get hypersensitive to not-so-serious stuff like that and aren't able to tell what's serious smug crap and what's just trolling

not saying that's an excuse or whatever i'm just explaining the phenomenon

what bernie needs to do is go to the convention and bargain with Hillary. get her to support free tuition and campaign finance reform in exchange for his army of supporters.

if that doesn't work, we should all vote for the lesser of two evils, Donal d Trup
