      The person who said that isn’t a “neo” anything; racism is millenia old. Nor are they liberal; liberals love ranked choice voting.

      Seems more and more that “neoliberal” is the latest conservative dogwhistle.

      Lol neoliberals. The Democrat and Republican parties are controlled by the same people - republicans.

      I don’t mean all people who vote democrat are republican. I mean that these official organizations bend to the will of republicans. It’s why the DNC colluded to prevent Bernie Sanders from winning the democratic primary. Democracts are just republican-lite. This story is a perfect example.

        I’ll never forgive them for the way they did Bernie. When every neoliberal dropped from the field to consolidate power behind joe biden, when Bernie was clearly winning. While elizabeth warren, who accused Bernie of being anti-woman, stayed in the race just long enough to make sure she divided the progressive vote.

        They colluded to keep Bernie out of the presidency, and it’s because they are corrupt, greedy, and power hungry. Bernie represents people, and they don’t.

          They labeled him as crazy and a lot of people thought is was because of his policy ideas, which it was in a way, but it was moreso that he was singularly trying to fight the establishment.

            you people? People who support accessible, affordable healthcare for all? People who support making a college education available without crippling student loan debt? People who support the removal of lobbying and the influence of dark money from politics? People who support unions, and the curtailing of corporations power? People who believe a persons worth is not equal to their accumulated wealth?

            That the people you’re referring to?
