In reply to the discussion: Bernie Sanders in one word [View all]AOR
(692 posts)Doesn't matter if it's the Hillary Clinton brand, the Bernie Sanders brand, the "Democratic Socialist" brand, the Liberal brand, the Progressive brand, the Conservative brand, the "Teddy Roosevelt brand," or any other brand. It is all capitalism and it rests on a foundation of the institutionalized theft of labor and the commons, war, institutionalized racism, white supremacy, and much more. 250 recs for an OP promoting the lip-service of a racist, warmongering, white supremicist, Imperialist piece of shit like Teddy Roosevelt shows how far off we are to ANYTHING resembling real social and economic justice for ALL. American Eceptionalism, white supremacy, reactionary nostalgia, and "manifest destiny is alive and well amongst the "left."
NOTHING will be changed until that is addressed and the "Hillary vs Bernie", "Republican vs Democrat" kabuki circus doesn't have a fucking thing to do with addressing it. Lets get real here.
