Don't get me wrong, Sanders is one of the few sane politicians left in the US, but democrats need to start thinking outside of the box. Relying on the next election for change just seems a little naive.

Corruption is encouraged. What do you expect when the president is openly corrupt?

Sanders is old enough to remember previous fascist regimes, so I'm surprised he still seems to believe what he's saying.

Look at all those smiles as they are destroying their country and the planet. I wonder what drives these people. Is it really only money and racism?

She cares more about her career than about all the people that will die as a result of her vote. Edit: Just like all the others who voted for this btw.

Unfortunately shame isn't going to make anything better. Your politicians 'slamming' the other side isn't going to change anything either. Those opposing the fascist cult need to organize and have a plan, or it's only going to get worse. I realise however this is easier said than done.

That's how you handle a bully. You stand up for yourself and take the hit if it comes to that.

Good luck. I guess it will take people like you to do it, because your political "leaders" aren't doing shit.

Yes, generally these one day protests don't really accomplish anything. You need protests that don't end at dinner time, but go on until there is change. In other words: a revolution. But I understand this is not easy to organize in a gigantic country like the US.

I'm European and this is how I feel about it as well. I try to turn my boycott into something positive. Now I support my local economy more and I've turned away from big tech to more ethical FOSS as much as I could.

That's tough. I would be devastated if my parents chose to believe some propaganda 'news' channel over what the sons they raised had to say.

Hopefully they isolate themselves so much that the rest of the world will be influenced less by their election cycle.
