Highlight:

Remember when Bernie said social justice must wait for economic justice? [View all] boston bean Sep 2015 OP

I think bernie has "evolved" on this. leftofcool Sep 2015 #1

yeah, it is OK for Sanders to evolve but riversedge Sep 2015 #15

It took Hillary a lot longer to crawl out of the primordial soup... Human101948 Sep 2015 #84

moving the goal posts once again I see. riversedge Sep 2015 #89

Get your eyes checked... Human101948 Sep 2015 #92

You're comparing a kid pleasing her father with a guy who first tried to qualify as a MADem Sep 2015 #142

So time before evolving is a factor now!?!!?!? wow... uponit7771 Sep 2015 #208

So any ideas on how to solve the stand alone racism issue? jalan48 Sep 2015 #134

Bernie is the only one talking about it. Really? sheshe2 Sep 2015 #203

Thanks for the response and the links. jalan48 Sep 2015 #213

K&R! stonecutter357 Sep 2015 #2

I sure don't and none of your body says any such thing either just your phony headline. TheKentuckian Sep 2015 #3

You are right, it might be to kind... he said it wasn't important. nt boston bean Sep 2015 #5

He did not say social justice was not important. thesquanderer Sep 2015 #133

Also a willful fabrication that is nowhere to be found. TheKentuckian Sep 2015 #171

Just leave. sibelian Sep 2015 #4

How dare the OP bother "us" with some inconvenient facts! DU is supposed to be an DanTex Sep 2015 #10

It's not "inconvenient" it's just blatant misinterpretation. sibelian Sep 2015 #28

It seems like a pretty straightforward reading of Bernie's statement to me. DanTex Sep 2015 #34

Misleading headline =? inconvenient facts HERVEPA Sep 2015 #155

Translation: I am a bernie supporter so I will pretend bernie did not say this. leftofcool Sep 2015 #13

Oh he said it all right... sibelian Sep 2015 #23

Exactly. tecelote Sep 2015 #60

I agree.. Sanders' meaning is distorted in the OP. pangaia Sep 2015 #69

When you say it's a "first step", you are confirming exactly what the OP said. DanTex Sep 2015 #76

The opposite. tecelote Sep 2015 #80

Racial profiling, for example. DanTex Sep 2015 #82

The prison industrial complex loves racial profiling for economic reasons. tecelote Sep 2015 #87

Sure, there are some links, but they are not "integral" to each other. DanTex Sep 2015 #90

It is not Either/Or Armstead Sep 2015 #88

Yes, you can do both at the same time. Or you can prioritize one of the other, like Bernie does. DanTex Sep 2015 #91

There are many cited instances where successful African-Americans were racially profiled. olegramps Sep 2015 #100

It's not a cure, just a step in the right direction. tecelote Sep 2015 #147

I would argue the part where working class whites... Anansi1171 Sep 2015 #161

Then I wonder why Bernie was fighting against segregation while Hillary was supporting Goldwater... cascadiance Sep 2015 #109

Yes, he marched with MLK. We know that. DanTex Sep 2015 #111

And MLK ALSO believed that economic justice issues were important issues to solve... cascadiance Sep 2015 #119

"corporate bought Democrats ... offend their paymasters". Be serious. DanTex Sep 2015 #121

I am! cascadiance Sep 2015 #122

It also won't end hatred in the minds of racists and bigots. Volaris Sep 2015 #123

Yes. Higher education is very important and is definitely an economic and social issue tecelote Sep 2015 #148

Not only that, "since I am a bernie supporter I don't have to worry about a hide on a personal stevenleser Sep 2015 #165

Poor, persecuted Steven. Comrade Grumpy Sep 2015 #193

Yep. I guarantee you if I post that exact post to a Bernie supporter I will get a 6-1 to HIDE. stevenleser Sep 2015 #166

Making a statement that the "OP should leave" is not very Democratic still_one Sep 2015 #71

You first. n/t JTFrog Sep 2015 #93

He did leave, went to Discussionist made quite a few negative statements about DU and DUers. No seaglass Sep 2015 #106

Yea... there are a shitload of hypocritical jerks spewing crap here lately. JTFrog Sep 2015 #113

And before OET, there was Progressive Independent I think it was called. I don't care either except seaglass Sep 2015 #125

My point exactly. JTFrog Sep 2015 #127

They have their own playpen full of zoo filth to wallow in hifiguy Sep 2015 #204

Distort much? Scuba Sep 2015 #6

Yup. And it's obvious that what he really cares about are economic issues. DanTex Sep 2015 #7

That would be the point... boston bean Sep 2015 #8

But the point is also that he also cares about social justice issues too! cascadiance Sep 2015 #116

Economic issues are social issues Armstead Sep 2015 #30

No, economic issues are economic issues, and social issues are social issues. DanTex Sep 2015 #38

Okay whatever. You seem to prefer neat little boxes. Kind of an OCD thing Armstead Sep 2015 #45

Another personal attack, huh. Y'all are getting a little touchy these days. What's that about? DanTex Sep 2015 #49

Dan your arguments all seem to be bsed on simplistic labeling and non-answers Armstead Sep 2015 #52

Try to rise above the ad hominem and discuss the substance. It might be tempting to DanTex Sep 2015 #54

My post was calm and impersonal Armstead Sep 2015 #58

The one where you called me OCD? Or the one where you compared me to Rush? DanTex Sep 2015 #64

The one where I said this Armstead Sep 2015 #65

Oh, the one before the two personal attacks. Yes, that was not a personal attack. One out of three DanTex Sep 2015 #73

"That's a legitimate viewpoint, but it's not shared by everyone. " Armstead Sep 2015 #86

I've always said that Bernie's viewpoint is legitimate, and that economic injustice is a worthy DanTex Sep 2015 #94

They are his prioity. Armstead Sep 2015 #99

First of all, Bernie is the one who brands himself a socialist. And then, for some reason, people DanTex Sep 2015 #104

I am not saying any one side is blameless or guilty of such things Armstead Sep 2015 #112

I agree, he no longer says anything about nationalizing the means of production. DanTex Sep 2015 #120

I think you need to provide us links to what many here would call fallacious assertions... cascadiance Sep 2015 #132

Yep, and no worries about an alert. A Hillary supporter posting that would get a 6-1 hide. nt stevenleser Sep 2015 #163

+1 uponit7771 Sep 2015 #209

Yep. Trickle down from the left. nt DURHAM D Sep 2015 #9

As Eliz Warren stated a few days ago--that does not work. riversedge Sep 2015 #31

How's the fishing, Boston Bean? Scootaloo Sep 2015 #14

I haven't fished in years. Does posting an NPR interview distress you. boston bean Sep 2015 #16

Not unless you count a rolling of the eyes to be "distress." Scootaloo Sep 2015 #17

It's bernies own words. I can't imagine what I might have done to cause boston bean Sep 2015 #19

Your headline isn't, though it claims to be Scootaloo Sep 2015 #26

It was being kind, cause as you can plainly see he says it's "not important". boston bean Sep 2015 #27

If that is what he said, you wouldn't have to distort what he said. Scootaloo Sep 2015 #33

Do you give this advice to everyone? nt boston bean Sep 2015 #36

I have no interest in further discourse with you, Boston Bean Scootaloo Sep 2015 #40

Could you quote the part of the interview that actually backs up your headline? jeff47 Sep 2015 #170

Sen. Bernie Sanders On How Democrats Lost White Voters MADem Sep 2015 #174

The headline claims that social justice must be secondary. The quote doesn't say that. jeff47 Sep 2015 #175

Sanders doesn't address social justice at all and his words say that color doesn't matter. MADem Sep 2015 #181

And if the headline was "Sanders didn't address social justice" I wouldn't be asking. jeff47 Sep 2015 #182

The headline whinges about WHITE VOTES. The optics are poor. MADem Sep 2015 #184

And optics are the only important thing. jeff47 Sep 2015 #191

You didn't bother to read the link I helpfully provided, I see. MADem Sep 2015 #199
