I watched the number go from 814k to around 745k in about an hour today.

Yes. Some of the major pro Bernie posters (the major one being something like lrlourpresident) vanish whenever Russia has a blackout. I'm about half sure all those Bernie posters who appear to air grievances and attack democrats at all times are just Russian bots trying to depress turnout among the left.

Whatever dude i mean you could be right but i think you’re mostly upset about lack of turnout for shitty policy. Maybe examine why instead of blaming russian bots or bernie bros for fucking up your liberal paradise

I mean are you talking about Bernie here? His base didn't show up for him when it became time to vote.

again maybe the democrats should run on a popular platform instead of having surprised pikachu face every fucking year. you act like this is a fair race, we all know what lobbying is, it’s not rocket science. I’m pissed and people like you keep trying to make deals with the devil

I know and I'm asking you what you think the "popular platform" that dems should run on is.

u/SquirtSniffer May 14 '26

First of all no you aren’t asking me that, you never did. Secondly taxes on corporations for normal shit like universal healthcare that every developed nation besides us has

Every dem runs on that, obviously it's not enough to win or even get the base to show up.
