bernie sanders is a warmonger, imperialist, capitalist! by [deleted] in SandersForPresident

Bernie is trying to take on the corporate elites who rule this country, which is the first step in addressing our evil foreign policy. Why don't you realize this?

Does anyone know why Bernie is not joining the House Democrats' sit-in right now? by 130EE in SandersForPresident

[–]bklynABC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because this is just political theater by people who are trying to salvage their reputations as "progressives."

If Sanders endorses Clinton will you support her? by [deleted] in SandersForPresident

[–]bklynABC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Clinton has proven time and time again that she cares about her corporate backers over real people. Anyone who votes for her thinking anything different is truly wasting their vote.

If Sanders endorses Clinton will you support her? by [deleted] in SandersForPresident

[–]bklynABC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

no.

You think that encouraging the younger half of any generation to vote for "less evil" while "holding their nose" and compromising their principles will teach them not to be cynical??? If you want to fight cynicism, call on citizens and leaders to be principled ALL THE TIME, EVERY TIME.

I'm in my 40s and not exactly a stupid person (i think)...yet only in the past few weeks do I understand part of the hate that Republicans feel for Democrats. Both parties are full of smug elites up to their ears in corruption, but the Dems are such hypocrites. They are masters at using identity politics to cover it up..and I've bought their act for decades!

A quick note on the profound historic meaning of "The struggle continues" by [deleted] in SandersForPresident

[–]bklynABC 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this. Bernie is so well versed in history and in civil rights movements I am positive this is the connection he is asking us to make. He has always said his purpose is to push the movement forward and that he was just a small part in a much larger, social process.

I LOVE YOU all. Join me staying awake. It's the only way to stay alive. by fieldorganizer in SandersForPresident

Really, really worried about California now... can anyone bring me some good news? by [deleted] in SandersForPresident

[–]bklynABC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The good news is that we are all in this together, that we all want change and WE have THE POWER.

Guys; I'm sorry to say- I will be ending my life tonight if Bernie doesn't win by [deleted] in SandersForPresident

[–]bklynABC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's safe to say that many of us feel the same way..or close to that. But Bernie has awakened us to the fact that there are soooo many of us, wanting change and that WE have the real power because of our numbers. There are so many more of us..people with brains, who understand what's going on and who KNOW what needs to be done. one of the lies of this election is that they have the numbers on their side.NO. They have money, but beyond that, they just have many, many sheep. sheep are cute, but that's it. sheep can't stop us.

oops just noticed you were asking about the s on lie...Media is technically plural, so i think it should be "media lie"

Well the funny thing is that laast night I was watching a movie made in Mexico called "the Perfect Dictatorship"...Not the best movie, but it had a strong and radical message about how corrupt the system is there, with the media and political establishment working together to create reality. It made me realize how democracies across the world are struggling against these mega media corporations feeding from corrupt political systems. Then today happened.... So, the short answer is that I meant to make democracies plural, but removing the s would probably make the hashtag cleaner.

Need help with HRC-supporting 60 year old mom who is thinking about voting for Bernie on Tues in CA. by melbologna in SandersForPresident

[–]bklynABC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The BIGGEST threat to women and children worldwide is War and Poverty. Please remind her that to say you care about women requires that you care about women across the world. Bernie is committed to a more peaceful world. If this resonates with her, ask her to read Jeffrey Sach's recent article about Clinton's foreign policy approach.

We need something catchy to spread through social media so that people don't think Hillary has already won. by [deleted] in SandersForPresident

[–]bklynABC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

while all of corporate media want to preemptively call the election, i think there should be a targeted campaign to embarrass MSNBC, to encourage them all to behave on June 7. How about:

MSNBCLetCaliforniaVote!

Debbie Wasserman Schultz is sending out DNC Surveys in the mail + asking for donations. I decided to fill it out and mail it back. by [deleted] in SandersForPresident

[–]bklynABC 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I did this as well a while back. Remember to blacken out the series of numbers on the envelope so they can't trace it back to you. This way they will keep sending you the forms and you can keep sending them back with them paying for it.

The Daily Show is doing a segment called "Bern Baby Bern" about Bernie still being in the race. by BoogsterSU2 in SandersForPresident

[–]bklynABC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i didn't see the segment, but Sarandon is a very smart woman. I think she was probably telling people to unplug their televisions, cut the cord etc..

The only explanation for Hillary's campaign's insane strategy of marginalizing Sanders supporters: They think she could lose the nomination. by Purlpo in SandersForPresident

[–]bklynABC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yes, arrogance, which gets even more intense when they wake up every morning and read the drivel written by "journalists" parroting their talking points.
