(10,345 posts)This is my first election and I'm learning fast the realities of how easily guided people are to vote against their best interests. I'm seeing how intentionally difficult the system makes it for people to become informed.
Politics isn't inviting enough. It's become so exclusive that it leads to people not informing themselves enough or not wanting to be involved at all.
Ignore their gloating. They'll relish in the moment, but they won't win. And even if Bernie loses.... I'm still here, and I still have the same drive and inspiration he gave me. And I'M not going away. YOU aren't going away.
We are all apart of a movement that has been started by Bernie. And whether or not it ends with Bernie, doesn't matter. It's still going to keep moving. We won't be shutting down like Occupy did. We won't be ignored any longer. We've looked into the system and have seen how deliberately it opposes us. We've seen the tricks it pulls and it doesn't even try to hide that.
We're not going anywhere.
