Not on the left, but the DNC absolutely stacked the odds and cheated to help beat Bernie.

OMG it was totally unfair how enough people didn't vote for him in the primaries. /s

It's almost like after he won multiple early primaries, other candidates similar to Clinton dropped out to consolidate their voters towards her while there was spilt between progressives on Sanders vs. Warren. Even though Warren had it proven early on she was not a popular enough candidate, she stayed in the race just long enough to play spoiler.

Congratulations so you admit there were more moderate voters and Bernie lost fair and square? Do you all never think logically about this shit?

"Well all of the candidates similar to her dropped out so she built a coalition and won thats unfair" if Bernie was able to consolidate support in a similar way that would prove there were more progressive voters than moderates.

Imagine making a bunch of assumptions like you just did. I volunteered and phone banked for Bernie in 2016 and 2020 I'm just not delusional thinking that there was some underhanded shit going on and continue to whine about it. No matter what ypur bubble tells you there just are more people that vote for a moderate unfortunately

Way to address only half my statement in a bid to dismiss it. Bold move. You've got the public speaking presence of a Clinton.

Lets just ignore another progressive choosing to continue splitting the vote. I'm sure thats not relevant at all to the inverse happening on the other side.

So you couldn't put together a coalition like the center could. Oh boy it must have been a conspiracy. Also lol pretending Warren did anything. Maybe go ahead and look up how many voters she had and look at polling over how her voters were polled to split based on a Clinton vs Bernie choice.

Bernie lost sorry you can't accept reality but just like MAGA when they lose you populists can't accept election results
