Sen. Bernie Sanders says he wants a political revolution. His most ardent supporters say they want blacklists their word, not mine.
Revolution or blacklists? They are saying the same thing.
If you want to know what Sanders revolution would look like, the answer is right there in front of your eyes: One part House Un-American Activities Committee, one part Maoist Cultural Revolution.
...
Sanders puts forward a great many proposals that are, to put it charitably, unlikely to gain traction in DC, where Republicans still have a vote especially if those Republicans retain control of one or more houses of Congress. When challenged on this, Sanders falls back on his revolution talk. That revolution covers a lot: organizing strikes and protests against private companies that do not toe Sanders socialist political line; using the pretext of campaign finance reform to muzzle political opponents and strip them of their ability to deploy their own resources for political communication and activism; using business regulation to punish his political enemies; etc.
And, of course, it means blacklists. Sanders himself has not endorsed such measures, to be sure. But he doesnt have to. His revolution is already prefigured in the campaign of intimidation and harassment his minions currently are carrying out on social media, with the usual threats and hysteria. Its not just about issues, Sanders organizer Claire Sandberg put it. Its about whether youre willing to pick the big fights.
And the little fights, too: Bruenig is promising to target everybody who works for Bloomberg, not just the bigwigs. Given the infamous trollishness and sexism of the Bernie Bros, that is not likely to end well.
But these are blacklisting times. In Hollywood, Debra Messing is calling for political nonconformists to be blacklisted

bring it on...
Bring back the Great Depression.
The past doesn’t repeat itself but it rhymes
This is just the beginning, where the communists start acting like who and what they really are.
Even Lib Talk Show Host Joi Reid said some of Bernie’s senior managers were harassing her just for voicing mild criticisms.
She had to Block them on Twitter.
Just wait until they begin coming to her house at night.
These are very old tactics of intimidation and brutality, straight from Europe.
its taken them from the 60 till now,to get this far. whats scary is there is no pushback.. this old man with young people behind him... the old man leading then to slaughter with empty promises.. for they have not learned how to tell the difference between÷÷÷÷ hell and good.
So, is his real worry that Sanders will tank the dems?
They were dangerous when they started, and I am unaware of anyone who has adequately prepared for them.
No, it has only taken them from 2015 until now to get where they are.
Yep.
That was nice to see. WW2 Vets do deserve to be treated like Royalty. I think that hold is called the Firemans’ Carry.
Meanwhile, at Bernie’s, two guys are fighting about a slogan on a T-Shirt. I think the shirt said Black Guns Matter, or something close to that. Petty fights or nothing.
The tactics of intimidation are also common in Latin and Central America—that is a coincidence for sure. ;-)
If Bernie does get elected, he will be impeached and removed. Remember, he is an Independent. A non democrat.
It’s a real hoot to watch the Left try to claim they aren’t anything like Bernie, while demanding everything just like Bernie.
The Leftist media deems him radical, but when the other candidates demand Communist fixes, the media swoons.
The amount of hypocrisy here is astounding.
We knew Ronald Reagan, and these Leftists are no Ronald Reagan.

But then he doesn’t like the woke urban alternative.
Suck it up NeverTrump Assh#le Williamson !
Almost as soon l he came to power, Hitler and Himmler began planning detention facilities for his political opposition, which evolved in to the Final Solution. Not drawing any parallels...just sayin ...
There is only one way in which the murderous death agonies of the old society and the bloody birth throes of the new society can be shortened, simplified and concentrated, and that way is revolutionary terror.

Part of me has been itching for this.....It’s always good when the enemy comes out into the open. Keep that powder dry Patriots. The only good Socialists/Communist/Fascists are....because if it where up to them,we would all be dead or imprisoned. History does not lie.
Note to Bourgeois Bernie and your puppets: Your party and its propagandists are working against you. Saint jimmiehodgkinson is calling you. Step up Bros. Didn’t think they would turn on you? They have.
