Don't believe the hype. The status quo favors the privileged

[Rebkeh]

Do people really want to keep things the way they are? This is not going to help anyone that makes less than 200k per year (or so).

Don't believe the latest narrative they are peddling. The status quo is not as secure as they think it is.

Say anything and change nothing. There's a reason this statement resonated then and there's a reason it won't resonate now.

That is all.

1. They've been calling us privileged from day one.

It's the first meme they created in fact.

2. Are you willing to sacrifice your economic needs if Bernie loses and support

others civil rights?

[Rebkeh]

3. That's where you get it wrong

The sacrifice is going to have to be made anyway, Bernie has nothing to do with it.

If nothing else, Bernie is our best bet to mitigate the damage. Even if you don't believe he is, the other options certainly are no better. They are worse. Much, much worse.

5. You didnt answer my question.

[Rebkeh]

7. Actually, I did

I answered the subtext in the question.

[Jackie Wilson Said]

9. So you believe sitting out the election is an option?

Or not voting for Hillary, just so we dont get into word games?

[Rebkeh]

10. It *is* an option

Is it a smart one? Probably not, but that is not my call. It's up to every individual to vote however they see fit. Tribalism run amok is just as toxic for democrats as it is for republicans.

This isn't about Bernie or Bust, this is about the insidious, diabolical and false narrative that tries to guilt people into voting against their interests. Especially since the narrative isn't even true. It's about as logical as poor whites voting republican because of racial anxieties. Actually, now that I think about it, it's pretty damn close to the flip side of the same coin.

It's ugly and sick.

4. Supporting Trump because of the "revolution" is a position of privilege. Whoever is doing it

can afford the damage that Trump will cause.

[Jackie Wilson Said]

6. They can afford it longer than you or I maybe can, but it will catch up to them

especially if he successfully accommodates the conditions necessary for WWIII

[DanTex]

8. True. If Trump decides that Putin or whoever pissed him off and then decides to launch

nukes, then no amount of privilege will keep anyone safe.
