    That man is charismatic as fuck. I have never seen a bad photo of him. Judging by the screenshots I see of Fox News segments, there aren’t any. The moment he showed up to support Brad Lander, he just sucked up all the oxygen in the frame. It was impossible not to look at him.

    I’m happy he is also a decent guy.

    There’s a mock up of that as an opponent complaint on his social media. That is, somehow, the worst thing they can say about him.

      You have representation, …the colour of the skin, and short lived poluarity is irreverent on the matter, what matters is they have the conviction and courage to stand for genuine change for all. You can choose to see a minority, you can choose see a different group, what you should see is leaders to get behind who can make change.

      Stop seeing difference and start supporting those who inspire power to the people. Its galvanizing, step up and say these are my people, my representative. Be the change in the system rather than a silent majority that determines the doom occurs.

      The cat is black and white. There no comment on that matter!

      Our race doesn’t need help, our class does. As long as the people running are for the working class it doesn’t matter. And the fact you don’t consider Bernie white makes me think you’re some kind of Nazi troll.

        Bernie is Jewish, it sort of counts, but not really. The fact that I was downvoted for calling for white populists just shows how fucking stupid the left is.

          How are you defining populism, then? Lamartinian? Lemonnierian? Silsian? Jaguaribian? Or London School, which is what I took it as.

              “Populism speaks for itself”

              Populism was coined as a term for the opposite to being an aristocrat in the 1800s. Nowadays it can either mean “popular with the common man because it serves the common man” or “attempting to disguise oneself as supporting the common man with an ulterior motive”

              I’m asking you how you define it if you’re saying that those running the Democratic Socialist caucus and elected to their position by constituents is insufficient for your definition.
