It took the US openly becoming an oligarchy for me to agree with Bernie on something.

Criminal anti-trust, and throw in a little bit of treason for twitter, google, facesuck and amazon.

For once, I agree with that insane dude.

Wow... sometimes you have to pick your battles...

He’s threatening his ability to deliver legislation and outcomes the people need to deal with COVID and systematic racial injustice

Definitely. But we need some form of anti-China coalition.

Look. I'm no Bernie fan. And I'm certainty not a socialist.

But it's a no brainer that we cant let four or five companies rule us.

Let's all work together to get rid of these fricks.

Then, afterwards, we can fight it out politically.

There is no legitimate political
System while they exist.

There are about a dozen or so sociopathic fricks engineering the whole thing.

I agree but he would have to buck the dems biggest backers to do it and I don't think he has the guts to do it. In fact, he has shown he doesn't. It is all just theater on his part

If this isn't the battle to pick, what the hell is?

My feeling is, he can't do it. And the right can't do it.

But patriots can. Not sure how, but it's more feasible to think so than to visualize defeating armies or battling it out with a hundred million fellow citizens.

Bernie has typically been good at identifying problems. His solutions suck.

The reality is that socialists don’t want any competition for power. The government doesn’t share.

These are wild times. Seems outside of the handful of true conservative Republicans in Congress, Bernie Sanders might be Trump supporters' biggest ally in battling the elitist globalists.

Link

Read the Preface to the book on monopolies and oligopolies by Teachout.

It's called "Break 'Em Up". Preface by Bernie Sanders

Damn yall, watch as we diagram the Uniparty running a simple, effective play-action fake.

Democrats position themselves as anti-big business pro-freedom.

Republicans position themselves as pro-corporate pro-freedom.

Democrats run Bernie up the middle and - watch closely now - the ball never changes hands.

Pelosi keeps it in a 5 step drop "This is too liberal, we're actually a party of moderates. The GOP agrees with us that this is burdensome government intrusion into the marketplace."

Pelosi tosses the ball of billions of dollars of cash to a streaking Jeff Bezos down the sideline as Republicans stand around lazily. HE SCORES!

There are liberals who are awake to the evil nature of these billionaires.

That was the calling cry of original liberalism. The neo liberal / progressive faithful see these corporate monoliths as the ultimate hammer to squash the freedoms and bury the voice of the right.

The only voice that matters is their own.

This board is overflowing with just this type of neo liberal.
Amazingly, an avowed socialist sees the destructive power and control of the unfettered social media power.
Liberal sheep cannot.
