Democrats have nothing to gain be telling Bernie and his supporters to go to hell

118. It's simply a lie to claim that anyone with my views has called on the party

to take the side of white men earning $100,000 a year or more against poor women and poor children, and especially never against poor women and children of color. Nobody in those groups are ever helped by fiscally conservative policies or incentives to corporations.

And nothing I've ever advocated would ever leave poor women and poor children out in the cold, or would ever treat them worse than white men. The only thing that can help women and children is large increases in social spending.

It's not possible to do anything progressive while cutting social spending, making it more expensive to attend college(it can't make any difference to improve elementary and secondary schools if college remains unaffordable for almost everyone). If young people continue to be forced to leave college with massive student loan debts, it is impossible for those young people to do anything progressive with their lives, because they have to try to get corporate jobs to pay off those debts and once someone takes a corporate job, any possibility of that person ever doing anything progressive or humane with their life is over. They are obligated to be selfish and if you have to be selfish you have to be right-wing.

It isn't Bernie vs. Hillary anymore. That's over. And former Sanders people aren't on the opposite sides of any issues from you now, if they ever actually were.

We never had to choose between social justice OR economic justice. Everyone in the 99% Including women and children in poverty, needs both. Nobody ONLY needs social justice, nobody is less committed to social justice than you are, and it's not possible to achieve social justice without achieving economic justice as well. The Sixties proved that for the rest of eternity.
