2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumBernie supporters: You need to get ready(the fight to protect our movement).
Every single one of you who support Bernie need to prepare for IF Hillary gets the nom. and you need to learn how to code well, protect your privacy and understand the mechanics behind Meshnet. Net Neutrality needs to be protected so the message still gets out and more people like Bernie get the chance via the internet. TPP will silence it.
Anyone who likes Hillary but enjoys Democracy Now, RT-America, The Intercept, etc.? Blocked or slowed down while the official media choice you have no problem accessing.
I'm not fearmongering, I'm telling you point blank they will try to marginalize the place that created an even playing field for Bernie against Hillary so this doesn't happen again. Believe that, Net Neutrality is NOT safe.
I don't think I also need to tell my fellow Bernie supporters that you need to come out and make sure the Bernie Democrats for Congress win in the primary, donate to them, phone bank them, etc.

They *will* fight back and try to make it harder for another challenge.
Nobody said this will be easy - the fight has just begun.

(814 posts)I will NOT support the Corporatists/3rd Way Dems. I might vote for them but I'll be damned if I donate or waste my time with people who support garbage like TPP, oppose weed legalization, debt-free NOT tuition-free college, Medicare for all, etc. I might as well flush my money down the toilet. I'm a big advocate for Net Neutrality, i.e. keeping the Gatekeepers that we've had for decades before half-dead and marginalized. I would also push for hardening the electrical grid against solar flares that will fry it but no one will listen about it, same goes with cybersecurity.
If you don't think Net Neutrality is going to be in jeopardy you need to wake up.
