Bernie isn't actually selling socialism, though. He himself is a socialist but most of his policies are typical social welfare democratic shit that's part of non-socialist platforms of foreign parties. He TALKS a big game about socialism and revolution and all that but what he's really trying to do is reform our current system by working within it and winning elections. And for each young person inspired by his radical rhetoric there's an old or two that get turned off. And his policies are still popular with people who aren't voting for him. Policy is not really the issue here. --- DPOblivion was far more determined than me. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
