Trying to say that you are a socialist? O.o
I’m not a full on socialist like Bernie, but I definitely lack the social skills like Bernie.
My admiration of Bernie isn't because he's a socialist or an atheist or anything like that. I also don't need my president to be able to laugh at every joke or be able to identify all 50 shades of grey..., I just admire his unwavering conviction to do what he believes is the right thing to do.
Hopefully AOC will be able to do the same during her career? Because Bernie is just too damn old. However, I heard Nancy Pelosi was like AOC when she was young... I also loved Obama when I thought he was more progressive(when campaigning against Hillary...), but people often change over time and become more compromising...
Bernie's integrity withstood the test of time. I just can't help but respect that. I sincerely hope that he will accept Jesus before he kicks the bucket! He is really quite Christ-like. Nobody who's anybody really liked Jesus when he was roaming around the earth too...

Bernie isn't a socialist.
Oh, he called himself a democratic socialist didn't he? If he's not, then what is he?
Well dem-soc are generally still liberals(remember socialism[which includes various versions of communism and anarchism] is an opposing idealogy to liberalism) but more than open to soft socialism, not willing to completely remove the problem that makes it necessary.
As far as policy goes, Sanders is a FDR style Democrat, while current democrats are more akin to Reagan republicans (which is telling how far the Overton window has shifted.
We just crossed 100 million doses administered (65 million people vaccinated with only the first shot) but fuck sticks whining about $15/hr.
Biden had been President since Jan 21.
Yeah, everything is relative... I was just going by his own word... that he's a democratic socialist. I don't want to get bogged down by all the nuances!
And to Neanderthal, is it too hard to just pretend to fight for higher min wage? Or at least pretend to work with Bernie bros in Nevada? If it's unity we're aiming for, we should at least act like we are united. That's all I'd like to see! I'm not expecting Biden to achieve the impossible. Just to at least try. Like I said, he's obviously willing to fight hard for Neera, who had little chance to get confirmed.
Imagine if somehow the republicans and enough stupid ass dems somehow derailed this relief bill too. If people get upset about that, you gonna chew them out too?
Hey, be real you fuck sticks! We're all about to get our vaccines. Just tighten your belt a bit. Just walk off your hunger... this will soon be over! Don't be pussies. Our politicians just don't care about us. Accept that reality and keep on voting for them... because somehow we need to have this status quo... because otherwise Trump's gonna take over!!!
Have some compassion please...
Should we just patiently wait for black lives to matter and quit whining on the streets too? We are about to be vaccinated! Stop being so upset about injustices! Dems are working on it... except a few of them with brain farts... of course yes, all republican politicians probably only have fart for brains... yes... someday dems will be able to get it done! This is like delicate brain surgery, can't rush this!
You know, I believe dems could possibly achieve these things faster by not sabotaging the progressives. I really think the dems are shooting their own foot like that... and fine, I'll stop whining about my bleeding foot... I'll suck it up. Cause it's useless to whine anyways. Why bother. To you, it's probably more like Bernie is sabotaging the dems, right? If only Bernie could cease to exist, we'd have higher min wage sooner?

As I understand it even having the first dose of the two-dose ones nearly guarantees that you won't need to be hospitalized from it. That's huge. For 1/3 of the country, mostly consisting of the most vulnerable, now have an existential threat that they've lived with for a year lifted.

I literally get a grin on my face every time I see him on the news or see a clip of Jen Psaki or anyone else who appears to be competent at his or her job.
Seeing elected and appointed officials do something - anything - that seems just or decent or even simply honest is a stark contrast from everything in the last four years.
But don't fear, McConnell is here to downplay the success, that Biden is merely riding the wave that started with the last guy.
Get.
Fucked.
