Got it. Bernie Sanders is an ultra-capitalist far-right Republican. Thanks for letting me know.
There's a reason why the Democrat superdelegates refused to nominate the most popular American politician in 2015.
What does that have to do with anything? He's a member of the right-wing monoparty, isn't he? You can't be an independent if there are no parties to be independent from.
Why is Bernie Sanders such an ultra-capitalist far-right Republican? I would like an explanation for this because I didn't realize he was, but your own logic says he is.
It disproves your BS.
He was an independent, switching his allegiance to the monoparty didn't help him win any federal elections.
You seem to have very suddenly switched from accepting the reality of the American monoparty to suggesting that no parties exist at all. Are you sure you're arguing in good faith?
He isn't, that's why he's not president right now.
You've never discussed my logic, you jumped straight from "American political parties only pretend to be separate entities" to "America's most famous center-left social democrat is actually a right-wing ultraconservative" as if making the latter claim would disprove the former.
What exactly do you think 'mono' means?
Inseperability. Codependence. A lack of notable distinction.
Y'know, like how our "two" major parties are the opposite faces of the same capitalist coin.
Oh I see, Bernie Sanders was only an ultra-capitalist far-right Republican during the years he was in the Democratic Party, like when he ran for president.
Boy, we sure dodged a bullet there.
