i swear half the young people i meet tell me they campaigned for bernie. their souls got sucked out a little when realizing their own party was fighting him all along. like step aside for hillary then see her fail to trump. that hurt. anyway i miss the enthusiasm for politics they brought. bernie is only alone within his own party...

I watched it happen to him twice in elections I was passionate about, I'm not a Republican but I am also no longer a Democrat.

You watched what happen? Bernie twice failing to persuade more than 30% of the leftmost voters in America to vote for him? Anybody talking like this ("I am no longer a Democrat because of what they did to Berniiiiieee") in the year of our lord 2026 is almost certainly a foreign op.

You'll call it a foreign op then cry online next month when Dems underperform cause you convinced actual leftists to stay home with your degrading bullshit 😂

So am I too young or too old now, which is it? Actually nevermind, your perspective doesn't matter
