Well, our "left" party instead decided to call Bernie Sanders racist during the primaries and do everything they could, twice, to keep him from winning their primary. So, it's not just racist voting for Trump that does this. The entire political establishment is absolutely terrified of an actual leftist running on the Democratic ticket for president.
Because once every 4 years when Americans actually pay attention to politics for a month or two, they would overwhelmingly vote for a leftist pushing progressive working class policies. No matter how "racist" they are. Racist in this country also have had someone they know experience crippling medical debt.
The 30% of this country that votes for racism and bigotry is the only group of people that actually see their policy positions get passed. The rest of us got garbage healthcare reform, more wars, more police state and surveillance, oh, and a genocide from the "not racist" party.
The racist bigots are the only ones with a lot of motivation to go to the polls. At least they get something for taking time off work to go vote.
The biggest issue is a lot of Americans don’t vote.
Blah blah i do nothing and want a medal for it.
Traitorous trash. I hope ICE raids your home you skinless shitpig.
Liberals trying not to cheer for fascist to kill anyone to their left. It's an impossible challenge it seems.
It's like you all are incapable of not straw manning.
How convenient it must be to just be able to instantly disregard any criticism, because anyone who dares is a "dirty liberal who wants everyone to the left of them to be killed."
Right dude, just keep making up positions to argue against that literally nobody here has.
I hope you stub your toe on the way to the bathroom tonight and the bruise serves to remind you to look for commonalities with people fighting the same fight as you instead of shitting on everyone with a slightly different point of view.
