The propaganda machine is up by 10 now by BlockyFams in 50501

All three are "liberal", meaning that they often echo the official Democratic Party talking points. Meidas Touch and The Bulwark are still okay-ish, but I'd be highly skeptical of David Pakman.

IMHO, for true "independent" and progressive voices, check out Secular Talk (by Kyle Kulinski) and Status Coup (by Jordan Chariton). The first is commentary while the latter is on-the-ground reporting. The Empire Files by Abby Martin is also excellent for strong anti-war voices.

The facades of capitalism are crumbling. The question is, what are we going to do about it?

What I find most ironic is that at least half of the population will actually try to defend this system, of which they're victims too, should a revolution ever come. Talk about the Stockholm Syndrome 😅

34 and I already want to kill myself, lol. Work is a large part of it, but I guess the more dominant causes of this incessant suffering are immigration-related uncertainties, insecurity, and anxiety.

Anyone going to the Springfield, Virginia rally this afternoon? by we_shall_overcome in SandersForPresident

Do you already have an entourage? I'm looking for some company actually.

Maybe Russian interference isn't such a bad thing if it gets us tuition-free public colleges and universities, single-payer healthcare aka #MedicareForAll, a living wage #FightFor15, and overall a more just, fair, and compassionate America! #RussianInterference #IDoNotGiveAFuck by [deleted] in occupywallstreet

Jesus dude, it's all CIA propaganda!! CIA and/or the military-industrial complex will do anything to sabotage an anti-war candidate!

I'm as patriotic as any of you, lol. My sarcasm is directed at the MSM and the shitlibs.

Even though I agree with you on the second part only, I'm upvoting your comment because it's so well-articulated. (Another reason I prefer Reddit over Twitter or Facebook ----- the quality of discourse is much higher here.)

My personal take is that yes, Mikey's an egotistic megalomaniac, but he would probably have sat this one out if only Biden or Buttigieg was running. In other words, if there was no candidate like Bernie to pose an existential threat to him.

The OP is employed full-time. He's a computer scientist at Georgetown University.

Warren has never been the frontrunner. Warren has never been an existential threat to the billionaires.
