Lol I don't think it's a good thing if it takes everyone dying for your reputation to improve. That is a pretty wild argument.

It is a pretty wild argument. It’s an incredibly dishonest and fucked-up thing right-wing media has done.

Also, you're just calling everyone that supports communism a shit headed idiot? For real?

No, not everyone. Just those too precious to help others, and those who’ll sow discord because they don’t understand how American politics works.

And she was a terrible, weak candidate that brought nothing progressive to the table. That's why she lost to Donald Trump.

She was unelectable. I called it in 2012. But she wasn’t terrible or weak. She actually did very well as far as building a base. And she was damned progressive, I seriously hope you fuckers are just tripping balls all the time ffs. “Nothing progressive”, you either know shit or that’s a goddamned lie.

It was painfully obvious that Bernie was the better candidate. He energized people. He would have stomped on Trump.

Preach it, I was there. In this magical fantasy world where politics follows our monarchical decrees, Bernie would have been our guy. Enough fools didn’t agree. Yes, even if we account for DWS’s fuckery. Hestill didn’t carry enough primary votes. Ok? It sucks. Yeah.

But instead the DNC had to give Hilary "her turn" and now we're in this mess.

Yep. Bob Dole - same thing there. JEB! was supposed to get his, but that’s how this shit was always run. Listen, what these whiny shitheads fail to realize is that national party politics - the kind that actually function, that change things - are the same no matter what the platform is.

They got a worn copy of Das Kapital and a handful of Stop Oil soup cans? Great! They’ll have the same challenges, the same fight, and the same bullshit. Because politics is not new. And being a precious Li’l Progressive who just can’t bring themselves to help stop fascism is just the first of many failures to endure while they learn all the things everyone has been telling them the whole time.

Being an angry Hilary supporter is ridiculous and honestly kind of funny.

Yeah cause fighting trump is a goddamned knee-slappin’ HOOT. How great to have violent racist idiots on one side and arrogant, naïve chucklefuck “progressives” or whatever the fuck they are on the other.
