The elections are rigged, the Democrats are a controlled opposition party. We are being killed.

I'm putting on a mask and I'm voting for Bernie.

Personally, I think it's problematic that a sitting Senator has a racial slur for a last name.

the green is on the most ballots nationwide, just loving vote green instead of these beutiqeq parties so we can have a third party.

This thread is very confusing to me. From the past four years of twitter discourse I was under the impression that the Left was taking over the Democratic Party and that the libs were going to bend the knee. Not sure why you'd need a third party in that case.

nope! 3rd party is a sucker's game. time for a motherfuckin' party realignment. we need to go to the populist right say, "we will give you an instant majority here are our demands" Democrats have shown they won't move left, the Republicans kinda have

Did I just say that out loud~~?!!!
I think there's good arguments for both. On the one hand, the Green Party is already well-established and visible everywhere in the country. Aside from certain insane factions like anti-vaxxers and anti-nuclear fundamentalists, the Green Party holds basically all the progressive positions we'd like. On the other hand, I think a "Bernie Party" would be good to immediately draw in all the Bernie supporters and campaign people.

Yeah sure, whatever, I'm in. I've always considered myself independent because most Dems are not nearly liberal enough. Wouldn't mind having a proper party to associate with.

Howie Hawkins of the Greens is uniting almost all of the leftist third parties aside from the PSL, and his healthcare plan is more radical than Sanders' M4A

My eyes are the eyes

I feel the unholy stream.

Bernie would easily be the most viable candidate to go up against Biden and Trump but it's not going to happen. He's going to spend the general election funneling leftists to Biden, just like he did for Hillary. He is of no further use to our movement. It's time to thank him for his service o7 and move on.

Howie Hawkins is a good candidate. He's got the Socialist Party USA nom and is leading the race for the Green Party nom. The Green Party is an already established, actually existing left-wing party. It would be a waste of time to start from scratch. Whatever issues you have with the Greens (hippyphobia?), an influx of Bernie Bros could easily steer the party in the direction you want to go.

Also starting a third party is redundant because Bernie can always announce Order 99 and he and the Justice Democrats will take over the DSA
