Nice hidden text. Also, probably against the rules of this forum, too.

Keep freaking out and going insane over people reacting to SNL videos. Attacking "normie behavior" has worked out real well for the dirtbag left.
Surprisingly, most of the electorate actually likes that shit! But I'm convinced you all simply want to lose.
If ideological purity is more important than winning, they lose. It's like the electorate has clearly shown, there simply are not enough progressives to support Bernie's movement on a national level.
Oh ffs, watch the actual clip. He said that he'd veto it under the circumstances presented to him by Chris Matthews.
Wow, all the pretend Obama ads in the world can't help this situation.
excuse me what are you talking about?
there's no hidden text
Apparently we're just doing Tales From My Ass to "prove" that leftists are bad now.
??? This is an actual non-sequitor
Weird, maybe just included in your quote for no reason, then.
"but it's america didn't want this they shouldn't have tore up the global fabric of civil society to be not just the hegemon but actually the ne plus ultra nation state
chickens coming home to roost imo"
Kinda surprised by that, has Biden really attacked Bernie that much before now? I thought one of his things was he didn't want to get negative against other primary candidates
Nice.
The most accurate thing about that vid is how close the text resembles an actual Biden sentence lol
Well. The President is the sole decider on foreign policy for the last 70 years
I can't imagine being so invested as a spectator to a foreign election that you feel the need to go try and help that person win an election in a foreign country.
Because they'd still be to the left of Biden! If you're already on the leftmost flank, and you move even further left, it's not going to help things. The left's "there's a secret audience that Dems have been missing that we can win over by going SUPER FAR LEFT" is a fantasy that is believed not because it's true, but because many would rather embrace something they like rather than something that's true.
it's not hidden text, it's an edit in the post
it's my beleifs
i'm a marxist
well yeah because you're american
it's not like Canada is a few bad administrations away from trying to annex your resources
nope. This only holds true for certain types of foreign policy incursions. For things like sending funds and other support to other countries, it's still controlled by congress.
My bad. It just wasn't there when I first replied. Your bad is still election interference, though.
Oh he has attacked Sanders before iirc. He may not want to get negative (or at least too negative) against a fellow Dem candidate but he would also want to end this primary as soon as possible and thus going on the offensive.
Well, now you all did. The woman narrating the video doesn't say this. It's an editing mistake, nothing more. Move along.
I mean hearing himself say that he doesn't think gun companies should be held accountable seems pretty accurate. I guess they could have used an impersonator.
He was hit hard on his past with the gun lobby in 2016 as well. Only because times are super weird these days has he been able to go months into the primary without anyone calling him out on it. Unfortunately as he tries to court the POC vote, he has to speak to this again. His track record ain't great, and they remember.
Me @ the pundit class: why can't you fuckers be, ah, normal
it seems to say "i hope this tweet ages badly"
it seems more like people are worried instead of chomping at the bit
Stop conflating Bernie being inept with leftist politics being invariably dead on arrival. You're smarter than that.
And the replies? Both to that and the original AOC tweet? 🤔
Are you willfully ignoring the US's status as the most powerful country in the world, of the power it has on all of us non-US citizens, the hegemony, imperialism and soft power it's been having for decades on all parts of the globe? Yes, we HAVE to get involved in this particular foreign election, because somehow it WILL have stark repercussions not just for the US citizens, but for the world as a whole. Especially in front of a crisis as extreme and urgent as the climate one, we ARE looking at you with worried eyes. I was hoping some meaningful and necessary changes were finally coming to the US, and would set an example and inspiration for other countries, but considering the way it's been heading to the past few days, I guess not.

Any idea when we will start to have some exit polling? Or do they wait until the polls close?
How are some idiots on Twitter a sign that this is some notable movement in the left? If I wanted to use random twitter posts to "prove" that all centrists believe bad things we'd be here all day.
Why do we place more weight on the actions of idiots on twitter than we do on hillary fans on our own forum
Most younger voters are still working right now. It's still a week day.
Lol that's because you are American, if you were instead subject to the whims of American empire and foreign policy you'd feel differently.
Oh I know, I was just responding to whether or not old people would show up.

He needed toat least be able to convince those moderates not to throw in with Biden. They're not a hivemind, they can be appealed to as individuals. We've gotten reports now that he's only just stated trying.
foreigners are free to participate in US campaigns as long as you aren't spending money or being paid. Phonebank all you want
That's government interference though. I mean, tons of [non-Brasilian] people on this forum were anti-Bolsonaro but I don't think any of them were out there campaigning for his opponent
it really bothers me when some of the most "politically engaged" Americans don't acknowledge how the leadership of their own country killed tens of millions to cement their position on the world stage, something which at the very least demands responsible conduct to set global leadership and something which Americans have ignored to differing extents under both parties.
serious foreign policy discussion on era is rough because people invested in domestic races treat it as a sideshow
User Banned (1 week): ignoring the modpost in regards to metacommentary
If you haven't noticed a certain group of people with Hillary avatars or other people that post with them making baseless attacks and contorting things people say then I can't be your eyes for you. I've had several things I've posted contorted to a disgusting extent and it's toxic and annoying. Despite the fact I go out of my way to own up when I jump to conclusions and try and be civil in most interactions. Not to mention a bunch of them trying to solicit bans for people from mods which I think is against ToS but I'm not sure. Maybe I just have a special resentment but shit is annoying
Just like any other wide movement that agglutinates a lot of sensibilities, the 'left' is not a monolith and there's a lot of different opinions in a lot of different issues, even if they can agree in the fundamentals.
I for one I expect that once you have universal health care, liberals in my country will stop using your country as an example of why we should switch to private healthcare system
Wow, Jill Stein is pushing this hard, and disingenuous bullshit along with it.
hey Bernie's top campaign folks voted for her in 2016. She's a true progressive(TM).
