OMG BERNIE IS A SOCIALIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reality Surfing with Buzz Fugazi
As a matter of fact, Bernie doesn’t go around ranting about socialism. He’s a Democratic Socialist who mostly talks about problems facing people and advocates policy solutions. Paying more for less with healthcare? Check out #M4A (Medicare for All). Climate disturbance and corporate polluters growing cancer clusters, degrading your air, water, and habitat to influence global instabilty? How about #GND (Green New Deal). The GOP NOISE MACHINE would call those ideas socialist no matter who was promoting them, no matter how they were labeled. They would label any idea, even their own idea being suggested by Barack Obama, as socialist (TRUE STORY. NO JOKE. LOOK IT UP). Everything helpful to people is the evil Nanny State unless it’s Donald Trump’s Nanny State. Then it’s just the cost of doing business and bringing in the rubes to support the GOP Establishment with this fake anti-establishment playboy. Maybe that’s not fair to Trump. He’s legit anti-establishment to the extent he’s a bribed agent of foreign governments and an associate of organized crime. Again, no worries here,
Meanwhile, the difference between Bernie and other Dem candidates, rather than going into denial mode, he says: “SO FRACKING WHAT? YOU SUCK! YOU GOT NOTHING! WE ARE TAKING IT TO THE STREETS AND YOU WILL LOSE YOU PATHOLOGICAL LYING GOOFBALL!” No wait, I said that.
As a matter of fact, it’s going to take all hands on deck to save our Republic, and this is going to be an exercise in addition, not division. Furthermore, as a matter of fact, it’s not Bernie trying to divide us into socialists and capitalists. And if the S word is fatally toxic, then the numbers in a fair democratic primary will bear that out. So far it’s not Bernie that’s worried about that. It’s the Big Money Players that own the GOP who also pay all that “We’re on your side, too!” money to the Democratic party. Anyone vote to Drain the Swamp last time? Trump has proven to some of them he’s a liar. Should they give up on draining the swamp or is there somewhere they can add their electoral strength… where’s the big tent that has room even for us deplorable democratic socialists? Hmmmm… #Bernie2020 #Project2020 #PunkVote2020 #BeerTown2020 #FBR #FBRparty #MSIGARMY
