It's all the fault of the Democrats. If they had run Bernie he would have been voted in and we wouldn't be here.
The fact that Bernie endorses Harris is meaningless, because he's not a real Socialist.
Things I've heard today on Lemm.ee
Ahaha, you had me terrified for a sec there.
Who on .ee are you seeing comments like this from?
I've never seen a fellow .ee like this. Curious to hear what communities it's on
To be fair, Bernie would have won in 2016, and I do blame Clinton for Trump winning in the first place.
Didn’t stop me from voting for Harris though in an actually important election. Just glad it’s not Hillary i’m having to hold my nose over.
Biden got more votes in primaries than all the other candidates combined. That's kind of how popularity works.
People on the internet like to pretend that US has more progressives than it has, but all the statistics show that even the most popular progressive candidate can't get enough support to win primaries, so chances of him winning the general election were even more slim.
Unless that will change, best we can hope for is a competent centrist.
I've heard the "progressives" going on and on since high school. According to them the entire nation is a powder keg primed to blow up into glorious revolution any day now. Any day now...
I mean, they might be right but not for the reason they think and definitely not by the people we hope. "It could happen here" and all that
