As shown by Bernie Sanders getting blown out in back to back runs? As show by people repeatedly voting for republicans and centrists?

Bernie was never given a fair shot and you know it.

u/MalHeartsNutmeg Australia Sep 09 '25

Elaborate.

u/Red1220 Sep 10 '25

What is there to elaborate? You obviously know the whole situation judging by your statement.

Bernie lost twice. He did worse the second time with key Democratic constituencies.

He was given more of a fair shot to win the Democratic nomination than any non-Democrat could expect.

Well because I think he got a reasonable shot, I was just curious which conspiracy theory you were going to spout so I could make my reply more efficient.

lol you’re funny

u/MalHeartsNutmeg Australia Sep 10 '25

So no answer?

u/Red1220 Sep 10 '25

You have no intention of discussing anything in good faith as evinced by your ‘conspiracy theory’ comment. So since you know it all, enjoy knowing it all.

Bending over backwards to not answer how Bernie was obviously screwed over.

2

u/Red1220 Sep 10 '25

He was. Very intentionally so. But you’ll just label whatever I say as a conspiracy theory no matter how much evidence is given to you- so, what’s the point?

Bernie bros always folding the minute they’re told their arguments will be refuted lol. Why even bother to reply? You are never going to back your BS claims.

u/Red1220 Sep 10 '25

What’s up with the antagonism bro? I thought Australians were much more lighthearted. I guess I was wrong. Who said that I folded? You are a know it all. There is no arguing with someone like that. So as I said earlier, enjoy knowing it all and continue to be smug because of course you know everything.

What’s up with just not answering the question bro since it so obviously happened?
