Door knocking for Bernie was one of the things that radicalized me the most away from electoralism. Every white person I spoke to hemmed and hawed about electability and the supreme court and my brother Danny said and this and that and well I’ll just do what my union says etc etc, while every non white person I spoke to said their whole family was already voting for Bernie and many asked how to get involved. And then all I heard from white libs that whole election was how we should listen to black and brown people and vote for Biden. Which black and brown people were they talking to? Who is part of this mythical monolith of non whites who actually hate Bernie and want the old racist? “Well polling indicates and this rich poc doctor on NPR said” man fuck you go talk to a real human.
And then of course they stole it from him and I’ll never participate in federal electoralism ever again. Any hope I had for it was dashed by my own participation in it. Meanwhile people who have never done a single goddamn thing say it’s my fault we have Trump or that Biden couldn’t do anything in his term.
Like he wasn’t even that good of a candidate. I had complaints. I have even more now. But I truly saw under the hood about how media and the system work together to ensure electoralism cannot possibly work, by getting out there and knocking doors and I can never unlearn it. So thanks Bernie for at least inspiring me to get out there and do some direct participation in electoralism because it really helped fuel my immense rage against liberalism
Uhhh obviously this is fake, Bernie is the candidate for privileged white bros. That’s why he lost South Carolina in the 2020 primary, because all the black people there voted for Biden and you should trust their judgment because you aren’t racist, are you?
For real, though, the Democrats lost me forever with how they did Bernie dirty. Then they lost me forever twice over when they willingly became complicit in the Palestinian genocide.
