      What a giant load of bullshit rofl

      The old “don’t vote, surely that will prevent a fascist takeover” bullshit propaganda from 2016. It’s tired, it’s old news, find a new angle.

        William Greider, referring to the Democratic Party:

        “They pick a nominee in a kind of half-assed process that doesn’t really represent much of anybody…”

        Apparently missed that part, huh?

        Also, footage was from the early 2000s.

          Yeah, I saw it, and it’s bullshit

          It’s called a fucking primary and all you dumb fucks who don’t vote in it are the reason we don’t have any true leftist dems. Republicans drag their party rightward during primaries, but in the Democratic party only centrists bother with the primaries, so we get centrist candidates. It’s not some big mystery. You dumb fucks don’t vote.

                Fuck your excuses and your conspiracy theories.

                They’re not conspiracy theories. The DNC never denied the authenticity of those leaked e-mails, which clearly showed that they conspired against Bernie Sanders in 2016.

                And in 2020, it happened again.

                Vote.

                I do. But if I get even a whiff of the Dems turning the screws like this, I vote third party.

                Now go play God with someone else.

      Thanks, I saw this somewhere else, and never watched it. Truth does indeed hurt sometimes.
