It's horrific that the DNC nominated Hilary.

They didn't nominate her. She stole the election from Bernie. Dore was a hardcore Bernie supporter. Something that nazis aren't known for doing.

He has plenty of solutions. Most of which start with "not being corrupt bastards" which eliminates most of the Democrats. Including AOC, who just wore a $30,000 dress to a gala full of pedophile billionaires.

Electoralism is considered a non-starter by the hard left, as you know well being one yourself.

They did - that's the legal name for it.

She stole the election from Bernie.

I think there was good evidence of this, but conversations with normal people have to address the fact of the nomination, after which one can discuss the evidence of manipulating votes. Nonetheless, Bernie had an unelectability problem, but I think he would have solved it with his many supporters (including me).

Dore was a hardcore Bernie supporter. Something that nazis aren't known for doing.

Which is why Dore is a fraud. He and some other Bernie supporters who helped get Trump elected are terrible people and caused additional problems for the 99%, as well as Democrats.

Yes - the Gala is terrible - but AOC offered an important political message to the "rich" who were at the Gala. She also supported Bernie, and addresses many of the concerns Bernie had. Why do you think she was not a pic for VP? Because of the damn DNC &c. None of this is simple.

I'm a centrist. (Though I appreciate that the extreme right-wing folks here don't see it that way, nor does it matter. Don't make any of this personal or take my comments personally.)

"social democracy is objectively the moderate wing of fascism"

I don't know who you're quoting, but the 1930s concept of German fascism did change significantly by 1939, and is very different today.

LOL for a centrist you sure are suspiciously up to date on what the hard left thinks. You have their positions - they hate Jimmy Dore just like you and make those exact same arguments.

Some of my views are left, some center, some right, perhaps like most people in the US. Brief examples:

RIGHT - immigration (send illegals back, without question; there's a process for everone)

CENTER - abortion (allowed only in the 1st trimester)

LEFT - eliminate the electoral college and all votes should be on paper or online (every vote counts)
