    That’s the issue with the hard right candidates, people keep settling for Republican-lite Dems that don’t address core economic problems because they’re left in comparison, then predictably they lose to far right politicians when their moderate reforms don’t do anything other than provide temporary relief. We need actual left politicians to institute radical structural changes if we ever want to break this cycle. Or a revolution, but given the way this country is going I have no faith that the victors in that would be on the left

          What would the world have looked like if Bernie was the candidate against Donald…? 😕
