One party deserves criticism for being insufficient. One party deserves nothing but scorn and opposition.

    Bernie is only barely left of center to the rest of the world

    When people say dumbass shit like this it makes me wonder what part of the world they are talking about.

    All of Africa: right wing compared to America

    Most of South America: right wing compared to America

    Pretty much all of Asia: right wing compared to America

    Middle East: lmao

    Russia: lmao

    Europe: about 70% right wing or similar to America with a handful of countries that might be considered left wing maybe but are sliding right as well.

    The British Commonwealth: about the same as America except for the healthcare aspect.

    Maybe you consider Antarctica left wing? Maybe the Oceans? Maybe the only part of the world that exists to these idiots are uber white Aryan nordic countries only? Or maybe you live in a fantasy dimension and are somehow communicating to us through a wormhole via Lemmy.

      Europe is absolutely not as you describe. That’s what the media feeds you in North America.

        Oh so Hungary is left wing?

        Even if you claim Europe is more left wing than America (which is obviously debatable at this point) it still doesn’t change the fact that Europe isn’t “the rest of the world”.

          Spoken like someone who cannot speak a single language outside of American English, who has never met a Western European. We are not a monoculture.

            Quite a lot of assumptions you have there and still not one real refutation of any of my points. Lol.

              You make one point, over and over. So, I refuted it, with a single point. If you don’t understand, that, well… think of it like this.

              There’s no value in explaining spark plugs to my dog, but she can still hang out in the garage with me while I change them.

                Your ‘refutation’ (if you can call it that) amounted to “no u”.

                Come back when you learn to understand basic logic and evidence honey bun.
