It looks like Biden will pull off a narrow victory, but the fact that it is this close is a damning indictment of the DNC & its failed neoliberal corporatist agenda. This should’ve been a landslide & would’ve been had @JoeBiden not campaigned against popular progressive policies.
Biden plus a Republican senate is a dream scenario for a campaign that pledged nothing would fundamentally change. Gives them a perfect excuse to do the nothing they had planned.
I voted for @JohnKerry in 2004, @BarackObama in 2008 and 2012, and @HillaryClinton in 2016.
And I am tired.
Tired of watching @TheDemocrats sell out to corporations then use the fascist GOP as cover for their complicity.
I didn’t leave the Democratic party.
The party left me.
The right wing Media Research Center posted this video not long after I posted the transcript, which means they were sitting on it, waiting, and this was coming out whether The Intercept broke it or not..
The Democratic Party effectively chose Biden as its candidate when it coerced competing moderates to drop out following SC.
Now it can choose to remedy that mistake, but it would have to put the interests of the people before corporate donors.

MICHAEL MOORE: Here's what Biden needs to do to win.
DEMS: Fuck off.
PROGRESSIVES: Don't you want to win?
DEMS: Fuck off.
PROGRESSIVES: But...
DEMS: Fuck off.
PROGRESSIVES: But...
DEMS: Fuck off.
[PROGRESSIVES FUCK OFF]
DEMS on Nov 4th: We lost because of Bernie again.
Centrists be like:
🔹It’s Bernie Sanders’ fault
🔹It’s Michael Moore’s fault
🔹It’s Susan Sarandon’s fault
I used to think like this too.
Then I woke up.
Centrist Democrats lose because they take the left for granted & resist the real change that we need to heal this nation.
Just realized from this Quinnipiac poll that only 30%!!!! of voters under 35 have a favorable opinion of Joe Biden. Thinking it may not have been a great idea for the dem establishment/media to snear at and vilify two generations of voters.
Governments around the world are exploiting the pandemic to monitor us like never before. I discuss it with @GGreenwald here on SYSTEM UPDATE: https://t.co/JlLQDQe6uA
Bernie Sanders took socialism out of the margins and into the American mainstream for the first time in generations. His contributions to the struggle for a better world cannot be overstated. https://t.co/K5ZVkl94r9
It’s a kind of anti-establishment “Crossfire” aimed at “hating each other as American people less — and hating the elites more,” as Ms. Ball put it. @benyt on Rising!!! https://t.co/fyP16uQDZX
