Helsing posted:It's loving insane to think you can reverse engineer the strategies of a party run by white supremacist oligarchs and merely apply the same tactics to fight for a completely different political agenda. All you're doing is giving your leaders the necessary tools to break their promises. All you're doing is taking the most politically active and conscious part of your own coalition and constantly telling them to internalize the beliefs and thoughts of the enemy. This is one of the many reasons why I dislike Warren so much. How does she expect to defeat the literal white supremacist/Christian theocrat party if she can’t even go on Fox News? Bernie got a Fox News studio audience to cheer for every progressive policy he proposed by rationally explaining each one in a calm demeanor. Warren is so toxic for the left-wing base right now. Please don’t fall for a centrist who literally took a DNA test for Trump.

MSDOS KAPITAL posted:lol I'm not going to defend Nate but I think there's a difference between that and just saying "actually polls do matter." Like I've gone out of my way to explain why I think the polling is going to systematically underrate Bernie (and for that matter, though probably to a lesser extent, Warren) but you ignored all that poo poo in favor of the zinger. Good on you I predicted Trump was going to be the next President the moment Bernie won the Michigan primary. It was abundantly clear that the rustbelt was simply not going to pull the lever for an establishment shill in 2016. They had Hillary polling 20+ points in Michigan as well. So yeah, I think “polling” has been proven to be little more than establishment gaslighting and public manipulation since 2016.

The fact anyone who calls themselves a leftist who thinks a white person - who also happens to be a former Reaganite FFS - lying about their ethnicity for their own self-aggrandizement is permissible in any way shape or form should probably gently caress off. This Cherokee origin bullshit means a Warren nominee would completely neutralize any effective Democratic attacks painting Donald Trump as a serial liar. Trump then uses this lie to explain her flip-flopping record and statements in addition to his skill at manipulating an ever increasingly worthless media to get reelected. She also said she’ll take donor money if she’s the nominee. But wouldn’t it be great if there was a candidate with an actual consistent 40+ year record on progressive issues in the field right now?

Donald Trump literally punk’d Warren into taking a DNA test about her Pocahontas bullshit - which backfired spectacularly - and there are still people ITT who think she has a chance against him in the general election.  We’re not even getting into how she’s such a blatant Trojan Horse for the establishment against the left.

Like Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Warren is a former republican. The only difference being that Warren was a republican until 1996, when she was 46 years old. Not knowing that republicans are evil at 46 years old - not to mention being one - simply makes you unelectable and untrustworthy to me. Lying about your ethnicity for material gain aside.

Even though Yang’s UBI is next to poo poo, I strongly advise everyone to read his book The War on Normal People - it’s a loving sobering alarm bell about the coming tidal wave of automation over the next 10 years. This is going to have a PROFOUND affect on politics and daily life.

It’s going to be fun watching Warren fans rationalize her positive statements and quotes about Reagan and republicans throughout the 80s and 90s during the general election (after she ratfucks Bernie). All Trump will have to do is read them off at his rallies while calling her Lyin’ Pocahontas and boom! 4 more years of Trump.

Solkanar512 posted:That’s not what he said. Plenty of people who know about politics could tell Hillary’s general election campaign was completely hosed before it began. I knew Donald Trump was going to be the next President when Bernie won that Michigan primary. It sent a very clear message to anyone with an iota of political literacy that the Rustbelt was simply not going to vote for any candidate that voted for/supported NAFTA - you know, the same agreement that literally destroyed the RustBelt in less than a generation? Add on top of this the way Obama kept pushing the TPP at the same time, which was just NAFTA on steroids. The Democrats basically handed trump that election on a loving silver platter

https://www.politico.com/story/2019/07/25/warren-hillary-clinton-vice-president-1435422 Elizabeth Warren just announced how she would have accepted an offer to be Hillary’s VP. There it is in plain site, folks. She refused to endorse Bernie in the 2016 primary because 1) she’s not progressive/socialist at all, 2) she’s an establishment politician, and 3) she only cares about power. I’m not even getting into how she was a republican until she was almost 50, or how she literally lied about her ethnicity for material gain. Elizabeth Warren is a loving neoliberal Trojan horse, and all of her fans in denial about this need to be educated on it. This is your future, people. Start exposing her to everyone you know now.

It continues to astound me to no end how centrist creatures such as you are still in denial about the mass political violence that is inevitable in this country due to the dystopian material reality so many are living in regardless of who is the Dem nominee. The Bernie platform is literally the only one of all the candidates that has any chance of somewhat minimizing it.

SKULL.GIF posted:I'm all in for Bernie but Warren did exceptionally well last night and I think a lot of internet leftists aren't allowing themselves to recognize that. The problem with Warren is that she’s the public option candidate who has a chance, while Bernie is the universal/single-payer/left candidate who has a chance. The public option is loving bad because it will be nothing more than a punching bag for the private health industry and capitalists - and by extension, the entire corporate media apparatus - to use as “proof” that “leftism” doesn’t work during and after they continuously gut funds to it. This isn’t even mentioning how the public option will won’t be comprehensive coverage to begin with due to being in “competition” with private insurance. You know how Medicare doesn’t cover everything that private plans do? The public option will be like that but on steroids.

The media is quite adept at confusing Warren’s  plan with Bernie’s. I had some idiot in a shared Lyft ride the other day ignorantly proclaim how Warren’s entire political ideology is identical to Bernie’s, and she was shocked to learn from me that Warren was a republican until she was 46 years old.
