honestly tbh i forgot abt bernie LOL but i do think he would have ?? potentially done better than biden? i dno enough abt this to actually mean that though lol

but yeah, not just americans the same thing is happening in the uk right now like that is why corbyn failed n his name has been completely TARNISHED its heartbreaking in my opinion...how to undo the brainwashing ??????? Anti socialist thinking is SOOO deeply ingrained in ppl i find it genuinely absolutely horrifying

no. i think the guy more likely to win is the guy that won. i think we all have this reallly wishful thinking that bernie would have done btter but i think its just that its wishful thinking by people who underestimate how much boomers hate socialism.

yeah i mean i dont really like bernie that much myself LOL for various reasons but i just find it so ???? insane how biden was seen as the 'electable candidate' n could barely scrape a win against ***trump*** n in this climate too like imagine if the pandemic hadnt happened lmao it would b a trump landslide probably . theres obviously something very very very wrong here . if the alleged electable candidate can barely get elected then mayb its time to try something new n a bit more...risque cmon guys

i mean its really the opposite tho, if biden could barely win (if he wins) then bernie definitely wouldn't have, different would unfortunately mean more right not left

biden is creepy in the way that literally every man his age is just a little bit too handsy because it was fine and encouraged in him for years to hug women and kiss babies as a politician. its not even something you can compare to trumps behavior.

the thing with trump is i's like he's brainwashed all of his followers (that's how it looks from where i am) I mean the man said to inject yourself with detol to stop the virus and an elderly couple of believed his every word did and sadly both died xx

wtf really???

yeah xx

i dont think biden did as badly as he did bcuz he was 'too left' tho . i think he did badly because he wasnt a very good candidate w a bad uninspiring campaign that relied on the assumption that ppl just wouldnt vote for trump again. why does different HAVE to mean more right? how many ppl didnt vote at all? i know the turnout was very high this yr but im sure theres still millions n millions n millions who didnt vote. i cant say for certain that i would have voted for biden if i lived in the us. what abt the ppl who voted for biden bcuz it was 'the lesser of two evils' ? what about the independent voters? imo 'different' does not have to mean as similar to the republicans as possible without actually being the republicans . i dno

i don't either, i don't think he's doing badly though. he's doing no better or worse than trump right now, and trump had the advantage. i think he didn't win in a landslide because the country is too divided, to the point where it doesn't matter how trumps acts. voter turnout is never as high as the voting population is even with landslides victories. so i just don't personally see how bernie would beat trump if he didn't beat biden
