    “Please don’t blame me for standing by as fascists ascend to power, I don’t want to take responsibility for my actions”

    He’s not the one standing by. It’s the DNC that chose the only candidate that could lose to Trump because they feel he is entitled to it. Just like they chose Hillary in 2016 because it was “her time.” These are losses brought on by themselves that affects everyone. Don’t be mad at the voters, be mad at the party that is struggling to beat an insurrectionist with multiple ongoing criminal court cases.

      … do you not remember that Hillary was elected in the primary?

      Jesus fucking Christ.

      Signed, a 2016 and 2020 Bernie voter.

        Yes, I remember the super delegates that they got rid of because they were used to tip the scales and the DNC giving Hillary the debate questions before the debates so she could be extra prepared.

        Also a 2016 and 2020 Bernie voter and donor.

          Clearly you don’t remember, since Hillary won the greater number of elected delegates, and the ‘Super Delegates’ only ended up relevant as a Hail Mary pass for the Bernie campaign.

            You’re the one not remembering… The super delegates were all called extremely early in the race for Hilary in an attempt to make it look like Bernie was so far behind he could never catch up.

              And he didn’t.

              You’re ready to hand over the USA to christofascists because Bernie was a worse campaigner than Hillary. That’s pathetic, you sore loser.

              I say this as someone who donated over $1000 to Bernie in 2016.

                I have never once said that. I have said the opposite several times.

              Isn’t it weird to you that not even Bernie says or thinks this?

              That Bernie continues to work with the very folks you refuse to vote for? Almost like it’s not an issue to the very person it should be…

              Almost like you’ve got it wrong and even Bernie has moved on to do more for your political views by collaborating WITH the very dems you refuse to support.

              Bernie and people like him are accomplishing more for your political goals by working WITH the DNC. Accomplishing more than you will ever accomplish with your sanctimonious BS pretending like the DNC made you a victim.

                  Sorry someone else in the same thread, making the same points as you, claimed it was their civic duty to not vote. Suppose with all the complaining about non-issues / cutting-noses-to-spite-faces going on, must have gotten confused. You really do not sound like someone advocating FOR voting dem. You must be that easily confusable for others advocating against…

                  By all means keep going on about false superdelegate shit, and how the DNC is everyone’s real problem because you mean to help so much.

                    I didn’t say that either. I’ve simply said that if Biden loses, it’s not the fault of the voters, but it’s the fault of the party and the candidate for not earning enough voters to win.

                    It was me. I said I was honoring my civic duty by abstaining. You’re so mad about it that you didn’t bother checking who you’re replying to.

                    Well, I’m mad too.

                    What am I supposed to do about it? I keep getting told that if I just bite the bullet (again) and vote the way you tell me (again) then things will get better.

                    So I do.

                    And they don’t. Not for me.

                    I watch everyone’s boats rise, but I still have the same holes in mine and nobody is tossing me the supplies that I clearly don’t have to fix it even though I did what you told me. Good for you all. Really.

                    But after this many times, why do it again?

              You need a lesson. The DNC conspired against Bernie Sanders the moment it was clear he was a threat to Hillary and did it so goddamned hard that there was a lawsuit about it.

              A lawsuit that ended with the defense: “The DNC is a private entity so we’re allowed to do whatever we want.”

                I don’t think you replied to the right person. I would argue against any of this. In fact I brought up points that support what you’re saying here.
