You mean Bernie? Frankly I find that same Ole same Ole depressing.

AOC and Bernie getting people fired up. That is what we need.

I'd like to see how many MAGA heads would explode at the announcement of an AOC/Crockett ticket. What a beautiful sight that would truly be.

kirk-discgolf.bsky.social•1 day ago

Most party Dems would feel the same way

cadystat.bsky.social•2 days ago

I think there are moments when you realize you need to brush aside old ways and move on without them. This is that moment.

oregonkate13.bsky.social•1 day ago

As we let them work and find their way, leaders will emerge.

thickfreakness.bsky.social•1 day ago

It’s beyond past due. I take great pleasure watching boomers like Schumer clutching on to their power while we take it away. I’m 42 and I’ve spent my entire life watching the older generations gatekeep politics and finance while we struggle to incite desperately needed change to save our future

Nature abhors a vacuum. Nice to see AOC and others filling it.

x-8.bsky.social•2 days ago

You are the next generation. You give me hope.

codycafe.bsky.social•2 days ago

We’re at a point in society where the ones that don’t fit in, make people uncomfortable, say what their colleagues won’t, not about decorum in tyranny, will rise up because this is their time to shine. This is why you elect the scrappy trench fighters ready to duke it out for America. We need them!

ferretslave.bsky.social•1 day ago

That old independent Bernie helps too.

rodneyonline.bsky.social•2 days ago

For me, it's seeing veterans like Bernie successfully passing the baton to the next generation (i.e. AOC et al) with overwhelming support from USAmericans showing up to represent opposition to oligarchy! ✊🏼

ohyabud.bsky.social•1 day ago

Keith you've said this every 4 years for the last two decades.

chefannnolan.bsky.social•2 days ago

It MUST continue. This is the tipping point. The way the Dems have been doing it has failed miserably and was completely avoidable. The guard needs changing!

Popularity is unhelpful if we don’t have Congressional majority.

AOC and Bernie should be in FL getting Dem seats in the special elections.

Bernie is the leader 🤣

I used to not be the biggest fan of AOC once upon a time. I can’t even recall why. But hell.. I was completely wrong. I am fully behind this woman

Agree. They need to make a LOT OF NOISE and inspire everyone else to SPEAK UP!

ecocentroid.bsky.social•1 day ago

Bernie is a great mentor. AOC is his prize pupil and protégé.

silvermark.bsky.social•14 hours ago

We need more people like them in the party running for seats in their community. There aren’t enough leftist local feeder candidates, moving up the ladder to Congress.

crotonpetra.bsky.social•1 day ago

We need more younger leaders to join and rise up.

seniormac.bsky.social•1 day ago

Too soon to tell. What took so long?

pharmboyredoux.bsky.social•2 days ago

You're a shill.

Without the removal of big dark money, along with barriers to accessing the ballot, there is zero chance of restoring our intended constitutional republic.

Since neither of those are even being addressed, let alone strategize and policy proposed to do so, your hope is foolish

kirk-discgolf.bsky.social•1 day ago

This guy does post a lot of videos praising McKinsey Pete buttigieg and other awful neolibs. I can't tell if he got into politics yesterday and is naive or it's more sinister. The first video I saw of him was covering a Bernie rally in Michigan that was excellent. Very emotional.

pharmboyredoux.bsky.social•1 day ago

The progressives of the party should either exit or higher Bern to educate the electorate and convince them to install the progressive in positions to run the country.

He's an awesome teacher. I've seen hundreds of examples of him convincing people who are wrong that they are wrong....

pharmboyredoux.bsky.social•1 day ago

OK maybe not on the payroll but a typical naïve party constituent ignorant of the real issues and driving forces behind our 45 year choice between corporate oligarchy enabled fascism and totalitarian despotism.

pharmboyredoux.bsky.social•1 day ago

Bernie is a kind good man. A terrible politician. Naïve and gullible. Great goals, no clue in the world how to get there.

World United we stand!

The sexual predator has divided the nation with his lies, and BOOM, he has united the planet, except Putin, against him.

The women, the men, the DEI, all colors, the poor, US trading partners and their Allies are all now united against the orange faced rapist.

Just sayin'

tgabes.bsky.social•2 days ago

Respectfully, are we talking about AOC? She’s campaigning with a man who is so old I had to google it instead of calling him a dinosaur straight up.

That being said, I am also all about new people. I love AOC and I hope she brings in people I like, like Pete.

loosemarbleds.bsky.social•2 days ago

I am happy you are seeing it. Please point the rest of us in the right direction!

mamajkmcc.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yep now if we can get Chuck Schumer to step aside

jmeyer24.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yes it does!

steve-adams.me•1 day ago

The thing that pushes a lot of us to be more involved is the realization that it’s necessary. Sometimes it isn’t clear until times like this. Other times it’s a little closer to home. But all you have to do is show up. At its core, politics is caring, being informed and present, and speaking up.

dobbyshorcrux.bsky.social•1 day ago

It's a start. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. A lot of work yet to do.

bluebirdssing.bsky.social•1 day ago

ducklady.bsky.social•1 day ago

The younger generation is needed. It's time to move on from the old & start fighting like the younger generation. I'm so frustrated w/ the democrats inaction right now. If you're not going to do something, move over & let the next generation take over. I'm talking to you Chuck. I'm old & saying this

rebeteh.bsky.social•1 day ago

Would you believe that us old geezers were once like you and believed we could make the world a better place? The hippie movement was about love not war, helping our fellow man and equal rights for all.

It's inspiring to see a people lead movement against maga.

growbagman.bsky.social•1 day ago

Me too!

scotsandlit.bsky.social•1 day ago

I agree and hope AOC runs for Senate, we win back the majority and she is the Majority Leader.

I do hope the Democrats choose a presidential candidate that can win and bring Republicans too. We’ve lost hard to Trump.

I kinda hope Trump does try to dissolve term limits and Obama kicks his ass.

kirk-discgolf.bsky.social•1 day ago

It's not democratic leadership, it's the left. The left that the Democratic leadership always tries to destroy

nittanylion.bsky.social•1 day ago

They need to take over now. Our democracy won't make it to the midterms with the current leadership.

annahantichrist.bsky.social•1 day ago

This is exactly why it’s important to participate in every election and pass on the information.

kirk-discgolf.bsky.social•1 day ago

Right. It's the people and the left, not democratic leadership. They consistently fail

artofnar.bsky.social•1 day ago

Well, we've been waiting for the dinosaurs to become extinct so we can get with the times. People between 30-50 should be running campaigns everywhere. It's our time. It's a new century. Need to catch up 25 years.

silvermark.bsky.social•14 hours ago

It all starts at the local level. Everyone needs to run for every available seat in their community. Use your voice. Use your power.

eldavey.bsky.social•2 days ago

I'm Canadian. Term limits would help ALL of us move forward. The US is worse, but why do we have lawmakers and government officials, especially in the US, who need staff to do everything because they can't even use a smartphone or laptop but can vote on policy?

david-tuniman.bsky.social•1 day ago

News flash. Bernie is 83 years old. 🤣

codybodey.bsky.social•1 day ago

The AOC Bernie rallies have literally made me emotional. It’s the only thing giving me hope.

silvermark.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Me too! I listen to them spinning possibilities and it brings me hope.

yourfuturepotus.bsky.social•2 days ago

I do hope that more Dems follow in the footsteps of AOC and Bernie in their tactics to confront and shame the GOP.

javinski.bsky.social•1 day ago

I remember when I used to have faith in the DNC too. Trust me, if they don’t see a problem with Chuck Schumer, they don’t see a problem with Trump. Both parties suck.

silvermark.bsky.social•14 hours ago

We need to revive the Democratic Party and make it distinct from the Republican Party. It needs to breathe a leftist populist message.

javinski.bsky.social•14 hours ago

That would be great but in order to do that we need them to push AOC or Bernie into positions of power, which they don’t seem to want to do. We need a way to pull them back to the left so they can start promoting actual leftist policies like universal healthcare, free school meals, etc.

silvermark.bsky.social•11 hours ago

Bernie is a senator AOC is a representative (though hopefully she will primary Schumer), so the already have power. The Dems won’t give them good committee positions because they aren’t beholden to the rich.

betterworld3.bsky.social•2 days ago

Me too 🙏⚖️🇺🇸🇺🇦🌎🕊️

edhirsch.bsky.social•1 day ago

I want Schumer & Durbin gone and I want real fighters running the Democratic Party. Really started to appreciate what AOC & Bernie are doing, but then I was quickly reminded how much Bernie's army wants to take down all Democrats. It's the same old 2016 BS!
