(57,764 posts)I never accused Sanders of advancing that position. It has become clear to me that is what some of his suppoerters here advance, and some have gone so far to call the rest of us "minor issues," mere "social issues," and "distractions." I'm not havng it.
No, you will see the last of it when people here quit promoting their class project and working to dismiss any concern that falls outside of that. The problem is they won't because they are so determined that the only existence that matters is their own, and anyone who says what about this is the enemy. So I'm the enemy because I care about a hell of a lot more than the fact a few people are pissed off at Wall Street while falling over themselves to make excuses for the corporate gun lobby. Clearly there is no concern about capital or subversion of democracy, while human rights, women's rights, lgbt rights are openly dismissed as "issues of rich people," or "only effecting a very small number of people." The fact is we are the majority in the party, and we vote. You all can impose your homogeneous little world on DU, but not in real life.
