Oh sorry, I wasn't referring to you in particular, but the organized socialist movements I know say he is a traitor or something. I still don't know why, I've read about him and I just can't find anything...

i have major reservations about a clinton presidency... but i'm going to wait until the campaign really kicks off before throwing bricks. i think she deserves to make her case just as much as sanders or tom brady or whoever. yes she has a, um, very advantageous "shot" at pulling this off. but its not like the gop or TEH MEDIA will give her a pass on anything sensational (emails, the libya "crisis", shaaaady clinton foundation doings). this thing isn't exactly a coronation yet

Voted YES on banning high-capacity magazines of over 10 bullets.
Voted YES on allowing firearms in checked baggage on Amtrak trains.
Voted YES on prohibiting foreign & UN aid that restricts US gun ownership.
Voted YES on prohibiting product misuse lawsuits on gun manufacturers.
Voted YES on prohibiting suing gunmakers & sellers for gun misuse.
Voted NO on decreasing gun waiting period from 3 days to 1.
I wouldn't exactly call myself "pro-gun" or "anti-gun", but I can't really argue with any of those votes.

Yet, I guess because of the two emboldened items there, the NRA gave him an F, which is a good sign.

Sanders is a Democratic Socialist. The "socialists" you're talking about are the people who are still waiting for the workers revolution.

In college I was in the Democratic Socialists of America. I once had a member of the pro trotskyist Sparticist League threaten to kill me for being a traitor to my class. The only guy i was more afraid of on campus was the president of the college republicans who also once threatened to kill me.

socialists that are anti bernie are more often than not, academic bourgoise marxists. theyre the kind of people who made sure nobody organized occupy into a political movement. theyre the kind of ppl that would be disappointed a riot didnt break out but if one did theyd run home and hide under the bed. theyre marxists who accept no compromises beyond their masters diplomas and total participation in the consumer capitalist economy. and they usually have absolutely no self awareness whatsoever.

But you can identify why they gave him the F. And you can recognize that that is ridiculous. It doesn't absolve sanders of being on the wrong side of many gun votes.

It's a bad analogy. Which I've come to expect here. But still.

But if you don't care about gun control then I can see why you would be unmoved.

Do I need to add the "I would vote for sanders" sentence to every post in this thread still or do we all understand that now.

Oh get over yourself. You weren't even the one who brought it up. And I specicially said i wasn't questioning their existence and that I just was curious about an example. You can be so sensitive.
