    “wow idk maybe I should step back here a bit and see what they even end up doing once elected”

    oh come the fuck on. this is the exact same shit you liberals always say about social democrats who are obviously moving rightwards and it always goes the same way in the end. you people are so fucking naive, and you’re acting as though I’m some conspiracy theorist who believes he’s a “sleeper agent” because I can remember this same song and dance happening over and over again with “socialist” election candidates running as Democratic candidates. no, I just think that this breed of politician plays a particular role in our society, even when their intentions are good, and that role is to restrict the scope of socialist political action and maintain the focus on bourgeois elections rather than any other means of pursuing power, while eventually being totally integrated into the mainstream liberal machine, as evidenced by him STANDING NEXT TO ELIZABETH WARREN IN THE VIDEO I’M POSTING ABOUT.

    have none of you fuckers learned from the AOC experience? jesus christ.

      standing next to a democrat = total integration into the neoliberal genocide machine, yup

      why did the bourgeoisie even try to smear the guy when it’s sooooo easy lol just sic hillary clinton on him or something. If he refuses to see her he’s an evil misogynist who loses liberal votes, if he doesn’t he’s sold out his brain to the clintonite neoliberal brain slug hive mind. i am a critical thinker

      I’m just not sure the point of getting worked up. He’ll do what he does and we can react accordingly. It’s electoralism in the imperial core.
