thisisnotgoingwell,

What’s mind boggling about it? Bernie Sanders wasn’t a prophet. He ran on a platform and we believed in his candidacy. Just because he bent over for Hillary doesn’t mean that suddenly now she’s a great candidate. If he had to bite down on the rag, I don’t fault him for that. But asking people to get on board “just this once” every election is just a carrot on the stick. It’s always “but this one is SUPER important, set yourself aside and pick the lesser evil, eventually we can get what we want.” There is no “eventually” and there never will be as long as you and others like you show that you’re willing to throw your ideals away because of this season’s boogieman
