Sanders could beat Trump but the Democrats will never nominate him. The corporate Democrats prefer Trump to Sanders. The real heart of the problem is actually the Democratic Party which betrayed the Americans working people years ago.
@@nancyfahey7518 Then you are an idiot.

@@njosborne6152 Why would anyone who claims to be a progressive continue to support Tulsi Gabbard? She moved away from Medicare for All, is spewing Republican talking point on impeachment, has defended Joe Biden's racist past for which he never apologised, admitted to be a war hawk in regards to the war on terror - meaning she is going to continue the drone programme - , and due to her history she should be the one person in the entire Democratic field on the front lines of speaking out against the current Kashmir conflict, but she isn't, she even tweeted a welcome to Modi when he went to this stupid "Hodi, Modi" rally in Texas with Trump. Is it really just because of her leaving the DNC in 2016 in protest about their treatment of Bernie Sanders? Because her actions in 2019, at the very least, have kinda made look like that was nothing more than a PR stunt. Previously nobody knew about and then, suddenly, she became this big figure on the political stage, at least for those following the process more closely.
How can we sit by knowing this and still allow it all to take place...especiallt with such a monumental election this year??? I feel that people need to get out in force to vote BERNIE like never before!

Its only natural for her to join the "good guys" now and spill the beans on the bad guys, because she doesn't really have any other option. I don't think we should be calling her a whistleblower.

This goes all the way way back to Edward Bernays. Advertising and marketing mixed in with psychology and then voila today (as it actually always has been) we are all becoming rats in a maze created by the monsters who are constantly watching, measuring, tweaking, and controlling our lives one brain synapse at a time. All the research put into getting us to click on things and enjoy connecting is equally applicable to the reverse reactions of fear and anxiety. And when will the undetectable deep fakes start dropping into the mix? Vice just did a great segment on a company that is focused on creating the programming for this (just for fun). Orwell would be horrified by how right he was in 1984.

Outreach and education go much further than removing yourself from a platform. You're armed with how to spot the warning signs of someone trying to take advantage of your personality to sway you, so it's the "persuadables" on platforms that can be hijacked who need to be alerted.
A well-informed and alert populace can overcome any shenanigans like this. The People, esp. the youth, have no excuse. They have no one else to blame but themselves.
There are 330 million people in the USA. 222 million are eligible to vote. 90 million are between 18-34 yo. This is the youth electorate. Only 36 million of them usually vote in the Presidential elections. Even a whole lot less of them vote in Midterms and City elections. If even only 80% of the youth (72 million) ever decide to become well-informed, free of misinformation and disinformation, on all the major issues of today AND devote their time, energy, resources, and talents to the political process, esp the campaigns, to make sure that only the most Loving/most Wise among us become our public servants, it will be GAME OVER for the dynastic plutocratic families, the corporate oligarchs, and the international banksters. At least 2/3 of our public servants would be progressive and they would all work cooperatively together to implement on a grand scale the gazillions of creative practical solutions we already have and show the rest of the world the tremendous good that is possible.
i've been waking up and mentoring around 10 NEW uninformed/misinformed individuals every week. It is imperative that each and every one of us do the same. Start with your family, friends, and acquaintances. Take them under your wings and help them to become well-informed on all the major issues of today. Moreover, inspire them to devote their time, energy, resources, and talents to the political process, esp the campaigns, to make sure that only the most Loving/most Wise among us become our public servants. When ready, each one of them will do the same. So on and so forth. If you can't do 10, do 5. If you can't do 5, do 3. Just don't do nothing. See my group on Facebook: "Creating a Wonderful World.
