Biden Puts 8000 Union Members Out of Work

You claim Biden will more than likely work with moderates and not “hard leftists”. In your opinion Bernie Sanders is a moderate.
I never used the word moderate to describe Bernie Sanders. I said left of center. To me there’s a difference. And when I said it I meant less strictly in the American context but all of western democracy. The US is skewed right. He’s firmly on the left in the US but not radical. At least not the 2016 Sanders I was enthusiastic about. He has bent lately to some of the silly woke crap. A moderate would be a centrist.

I don’t know why my opinion of Bernie being something less than an authoritarian communist brings out so much anger in you, but you should probably let it go, the guy will never be president anyway and I’m in the blue monolith of California where my vote means diddly crap.

These kinds of ideas don’t come from a moderate in any “western” democracy. European or other wise. They come from the hard left and on some cases beyond and this is just what the man is proposing while trying to get elected. To appeal to morons who believe his lies about Scandinavian socialist utopias.

Also adding democratic to socialism doesn’t mean it’s not authoritarian leftist garbage. Rising to power through democracy doesn’t mean you’re not a hard left statist, an unhinged authoritarian.

When you send a bunch of unsolicited ballots to dumb :censored2:s too lazy to get off their ass 1 day every 4 years to go cast their vote for the presidency, chances are you are going to end up with authoritarians who are promising centralized government planning to subsidize their :censored2: life styles.

Left of center. Not center-left. “Center-left” implies center first. Left of center means not far left.

You’re just making things up that I didn’t say.
I don’t understand stupid people. I say Bernie is radical, you say no he is just “left of center”. It’s the only reason I confused the two.
Left of center doesn’t refute him being a radical so I don’t even get why you bother rebranding what I originally said. It’s why I assumed you meant a center left guy.

I guess I’m not even really arguing with what you type. I’m arguing with what I’m reading between the lines. Your overall attitude and dismissal of anger toward the democratic socialist movement and viewing them as not radical.
They are radical, by European standards as well.

Excellent point. Nobody knows better than you just how dirty and expensive to clean up Canadian tar sand oil is. As a refinery worker it's my hope that you will be able to make it to retirement before the transition to renewables and AV's is complete.
Lol, you actually think he is a "refinery worker".
So gullible!

That's my understanding as well. I guess Barack told him to do it.
There is an existing pipeline from Canada to Houston/Port Arthur.

Libertarians are radical too. You can argue for extreme positions to bring the final compromise closer to your desired outcome.

I don’t think you or anyone else really cares to have me list all of my political opinions. I’m not an ideologue. I just believe in what makes sense to me. I like(d) Bernie for a lot of reasons, disagreed with him and the rest of the progressive left about others. You’ll find me mocking social justice crap around here if you look for it.

Call me stupid all you want, I couldn’t care less. You’re obsessing about a comment I made a year or two ago. This place isn’t for serious political discourse and I don’t bother trying.

Dude you claimed he isn’t radical like 2 hours ago not 2 years ago.

Libertarians are only radical to left wing nut jobs who never bothered to learn about the country because it’s racist and needs to be destroyed.

This country was founded on libertarian principles when it comes to the federal government at the top of our federalist system.

Because you brought it up
I’ll never let anyone who holds onto the idea that Bernie isn’t radical go without posting an unhinged angry wall of text insulting them and educating them.

Left wing radicals need to be stopped at the gas pumps and scenes need to be made. They are not welcome in this society.
