So, I don't follow primaries a ton for the national stuff but the caucus system the Dems use is a winner take all sorta thing right?
 
I’m leaning toward Bernie right now. I have a college degree, earn a good wage, and I don’t think I could be described as a “Bernie Bro.” I’m not a fanatic but I like him the best of the leading candidates. This will be my first time voting Democrat in a presidential election.

My wife is backing Warren in the same sense (edit: except she’s always been a Democrat). She is more educated than I am, admittedly. So this follows the national trends I think.

Somehow there’s been no name calling or animosity over this lol. I think most people who aren’t fans of Trump will happily vote for any opposition to him at this point. And online shit stirrers will stir shit.

Hard to know who you're talking about since a poster or two here refer to posters such as BarryDillon and myself as Berniebots. But I'll respond under the hopeful expectation that I'm not being considered a member.

If you're talking about the three posters who come to my mind - with only two being so much Sanders fanatics and the other being more prone to generally feign criticisms of the left from the left and bastardize terms like "neoliberal" - the engine of their aggression is much more akin to what I thought was Greoric's pathology: a need to feel that they have the inside lane on some revealed wisdom and that everyone else is avoiding it in bad faith. For Greoric, it was Austrian economics and ethnonationalism. For them it's a sort of fiery, anti-liberal left wing orthodoxy. That is, there isn't a strong class element to their views.

No, trotsky. Not you. You're always one of the more level headed and pragmatic posters on the left (at least with domestic elections issues)

I would say there is more than 3, just lesser known posters who are popping up more in these past few weeks. I would agree that the inside lane / magic Ball analogy is apt. Alot of angst without alot of analysis
 
And btw I do think that Warren can be made out to be dishonest and she has some track record of being deceptive at least. Which I don’t like.

But compared to Trump?

It’s like the difference between shooting a bullet and throwing it. There’s a 1,222x deception velocity difference between the two.

Sure but you have to remember that with Trump there's a massive double standard. Obviously his base is naturally going to be more forgiving of him but its true in general because Trump has lied so much and so often about everything, from petty things to quite serious ones, that the standard for him has just plummeted.

Why you rewriting Kurt angles history, bro.

The man won a gold medal with a broken frigging neck
 

Fuck the Astros

Shut up, I know the Red Sox cheated too but fuck the Astros cause they're in the same division as the Mariners and my eternal hate of the Yankees makes me support the Red Sox cheating to fuck the Yankees
CAUSE FUCK THE YANKEES
 
Astros should be stripped period
 
It’s funny how Berniebros are a thing again. The media ignores and undercuts the candidate for 2 years and now that they realize that hasn’t worked they’re opening the 2016 playbook and pulling out “berniebros” and “sexism”. I think they only thing they’ve tried to add this year is antisemitism, which shockingly hasn’t landed either.

The main reason Fawlty is going with the Bernie Bot angle is because he's angry at Trotsky. That's pretty much it.
 
Trump -145 is starting to get my attention.
He was +125 a month ago. Dems slipped a little with the impeachment process and he jumped, now shit’s rolling out and making me think Nancy knows her business as usual. I honestly think following odds this early is futile. Especially with this fuckin guy.
