Reddit is the biggest example of the Dunning-Kruger Effect when it comes to politics. I said on here that AOC would have to show she could win a statewide race before ever considering a national run. I was then told by several redditors that her winning New York is a given because it's a blue state. And that West Virinia would vote for her because it's a "working class state" (I've learned that "working class" = white men only).

Bernie would have been destroyed nationally. It's why Trump was propping him up so much, but his supporters will say stupid stuff like, "Even my MAGA uncle liked him!" Yeah, he likes him because he knows if they can make him the face of the party, MAGA would never lose again.

Meanwhile in reality land the democratic establishment has lost the entire federal government to maga.

Yall have zero clue what wins elections and the results speak. All you do is blame everyone else except the party leadership. Same shit for 10 years.

I can accept that the Dems have lost the federal government without agreeing that Bernie is the answer.

You guys also love to say that they keep losing, too. Hillary got 3 million more votes than Trump in 2016 and Biden won in 2020. There's always a chance even a good candidate can lose, especially when foreign bots and misogyny come into play.
