    Yes people want primaries. Duh. Not having one last time was an epic fuck-up.

    Particularly with an unpopular candidate who doubled down on one particular unpopular policy. You know which one because you get really mad when people criticize it.

    Bernie being screwed over also fucked us all. Or does he love genocide because you dislike him too?

    Sanders is on the record many times speaking out against genocide. Harris has yet to.

      Yes him being anti-genocide was part of the point. Engaging in hyperbole, the idea was that if you disagree with or dislike something you say it loves genocide. That was derived from the many times Ive seen you write something along the lines of “you must support genocide” in a debate or argument where you disagreed with someone. Severely incendiary language is self defeating.

        The centrist wing of the party is led by people who support genocide, blatantly out in the open without reservation or hesitation. Sticking with that is too reminiscent of trump supporters’ devotion to their idol no matter what he does.

        I don’t usually use the term BlueMAGA because I think it’s silly, but I can definitely see where the people who use it are coming from.
