Same reason why Hip Hop sucked in 96: https://youtu.be/yKf40CLF9MU

Didn't agree 100% until November, but now 100% agree.

Centralism and incrementalism are full-on failures. If we're going to lose we might as well go out fighting.

I watched the one in Tuscon today. The two kids (AOC and Greg Casar) got the fucking spirit I'll tell you that much.

Man, I'm so sick of living in America surrounded by cultist/religious nutjobs.

Help! I'm trapped in a shit hole country and surrounded by moronic assholes.

Penn leaned heavily into the position that without coersion or regulation people would generally "do the right thing". He leaned on this heavily within the show as well.

I get wanting to be positive, but that type of naivety from folks pretending to be "intellectual" and "skeptical" is completely ridiculous. It's a philosophy less complex than an average Disney princess.

Right-wing libertarian propaganda

Edit: Totally is, watched the whole series. Enjoy hearing specious bullshit from the cato institute for hours.

And this before Jake Paul could fight him on pay per view for a seven figure purse.

As an unconnected individual with a middling net worth, you are powerless in this system. Whole movements of people are powerless. The only way this could possibly work is with the numbers and probably a leader organizing it.

Yep understood but there's a reason they made the switch and that reason is so they can keep the shit they took out of checks of those who don't file.

I'm sure they did the math on it, they're sneaky assholes through and through.

I’m not talking about Bernie not succeeding in his campaigns, I’m talking about how he seemingly hasn’t put any effort into grooming a successor for his very own seat in his very own state. That’s not a media problem.

It is partially a media problem though. It's not the job of a politician to put a succession plan in place for their little fiefdom. It should've been enough to inspire others through his leadership, but he is painted as anything but inspiring by nearly every observer with an audience.

And honestly Warren irritates the shit out of me after 2020. It's great that she'll be able to hand over the reigns of an eminently winnable seat in Massachusetts to her favorite mini-me, but when she had an opportunity to actually advance the cause on the national stage she took to back-biting and opportunism instead.

Most boomers are miserable even if their purported political desires have dominated elections for forty years mostly uninterrupted.
