my point still stands: someone who won 3 consecutive mayoral elections in heavily liberal NYC cant be THAT bad of a candidate.




wrong, all it proves is that the rest of the field left a significant percentage of the Democratic electorate unssatisfied and looking for a different candidate. and some of Bloomberg's voters were GOP(-leaning) folks who voted in open Democratic primaries this time around because the GOP primaries are a formality.

you should also keep in mind that TV and internet ads have diminishing returns. unlimited spending wont get you unlimited returns. I would argue that Bloomberg's campaign actually reached the saturation point. and in most states which were actively contested by all major candidates, like CA or TX, he still didnt even reach 15%.


maybe keep it down with definitive claims like 'wrong', or do i have to remind you that we're talking hypotheticals here? i get that you (want to) think that, and obviously i disagree, but i think your arguments are a bit biased (as i'm sure you think mine are), and i tried to explain why. again, we're NOT back in the day, obviously i'm aware of and agree on your diminishing returns point (in the future you really don't have to spell it out, just assume that such fundamental concepts are understood and calculated), but that does not really refute my point about his shockingly high numbers (just imagine dietmar hopp spending half a billion on ads in germany, expecting anyone would think he'd make a good chancellor and actually voting for him - would he, in your wildest dreams, get anywhere close to bloomberg's share?) considering his tiny stint any one-sided strategy.
i know that everyone except progressives tends to side with the 'well, it might not be pretty, but the system isn't THAT bad' narrative, especially if it confirms their personal opinion, but that doesn't mean this is true if you look at it somewhat objectively. i had hoped that as a fellow european you would be able to think a little more critically about it...

"w-w-well i t-t-totally did that on purpose, hahahehaaa" *nervously looking around for his emotional support dogs to join

you are aware that rejecting the moronic 'delaying the inevitably only to have it crash down even harder in the future is better than bettering the lives of everybody right now, even without any drawbacks concerning the tens of millions who aren't even affected by that issue' narrative is not the same as not understanding what you're trying to convey, right? especially since we've been over this already it's pretty shocking that you still assume everyone subscribes to your biased framing of the issue.

btw, your nigerian prince biden will do NOTHING in that regard, he won't help those affected by it, or those who aren't. you know why? because he is owned by those who get rich by exploiting the working class to maximise their profits. it's funny how you struggle to do such basic maths...


i dont want biden to do much, if anything. automation is a fire, nominating bernie is kindling, bernie with a senate/congress is gas, there is no extinguisher. biden is a neutral force to it, because since he's owned by the corporations they will trust him not to fuck them.

i will give u one last chance, u can acknowledge that my personal opinion is that progressive action will hurt the middle class, that i have the middle class's interests in mind, but that im generally in favor of slowly getting to those progressive goals. you dont have to agree with my assessment, but if you try to malign me one more time and ignore this is my perspective it's post blocker time. im sick of you tbh. so last chance, play nice or bye felicia. u can go back to arguing black and the handful of other posters who dont already have u muted.

exactly how stupid are you? do you honestly expect that you're able to 'threaten' me into stating something that clearly contradicts your whole post history here, to confirm your delusional self-image to your imaginary audience? that's got to be your most pathetic post yet, and there's some incredibly stiff competition out there.

the lack of self-awareness to ask me to 'play nice', when every single one of your posts is oozing bad faith energy and dishonesty, is simply mindblowing (inb4 predictable 'mirror' excuse).

supporting biden speaks for itself. he is the embodiment of the status quo, he IS the establishment. you can't claim to hold progressive values, while simultaneously constantly and dishonestly maligning the only progressive candidate, and twisting yourself into a pretzel to rationalise your pro establishment propaganda. i mean, technically you CAN of course, you've proven that, i'm just saying is that you're about as credible as trump claiming he knows 'more about technology than anybody'...

Holy shit. My mom came into my room to bring me a plate of chicken nuggets and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of chicken nuggets out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I'm so distressed right now I don't know what to do. I didn't mean to do that to my mom but I'm literally in shock from the results last night. I feel like I'm going to explode. Why the fucking fuck is he losing? This can't be happening. I'm having a fucking breakdown. I don't want to believe the world is so corrupt. I want a future to believe in. I want Bernie to be president and fix this broken country. I cannot fucking deal with this right now. It wasn't supposed to be like this, I thought he was polling well in Minnesota??? This is so fucked.

You are a resident atm? Bernie is the death of medical standards. What’s going to happen when every man woman and child wants to see you but you don’t have space to see them? You get backlogged into oblivion, who will fill that large inevitable void?

Enter the Nurse practitioner. Most powerful online degree you can get in this country. You can be a practicing nurse in xyz field, decide you want to take it up a notch. Some good NP programs have screenings, but you will find some program that will take you if you’re willing to pay. Then you’re done and in a handful of states you can practice completely on your own. No board certifications required. If you get field of the field you’re in, you can just switch penalty free to another field. No residency required. Medical standards dropping all over the place until people actually start to get angry about subpar care, but most of the time they don’t know when they are or are not getting it.

This is already happening, Bernie will catalyze this transition. Your medical degree which you worked hard for, analogous to an online degree.

FG to match your yearly income you overpaid greedy doctor!

for real tho, this is common sense. i got in an argument with a bernie bro and his wife about quality of care dropping just for me and my family, since we're on a Cadillac state provided plan. didnt even get into the reality of the whole field dropping in quality because they couldnt budge off the narrative that we'd be saving money, getting better care, and also helping every person in america.
