Taken by me. Truly feels like a different world…
So glad we got an actual statesmen in Biden who went on to [checks notes] make life significantly worse??
‘enabled’ is a bit of a whitewash lol
I know his issues, but I don’t regret my support for him. It feels like we had to have a failed Social Democratic movement in order to accelerate the development of socialists in the US. Like we had to eat shit in order to develop.
Bernie is all in on the entities “right” to defend itself Forget that world we wished for. It was not real. It was always a fantasy.
he was a real socdem, and he gave people (americans, certainly not the rest of the world) real hope for a moderately better life.
succeed or fail he would have given us a lesson on the limitations of succdem-ery, but in failing I think he put more people on an accelerated path to becoming a communist than winning would have
I’ve got a good photo somewhere in an email to my mom from 2015 when I happened to be in Boston and ditched part of a convention for a Sanders rally further down the bay and 20000 people showed up
heh, remember having a shred of optimism? yeah that was cool
