I KNEW Jack Pine Radicals could be counted on for an entertaining response to Gabbard endorsement...

It’s on Twitter and I can’t post it here, but I saw the video. It’s downright repulsive. I just lost all respect for Tulsi.


I had to turn it off mid stream. Our last hope — gone.


Between events of 2016 and now 2020, my personal antipathy and disgust for American politics and Neo-Liberal economic policy has grown stronger.

I finally managed to have a little. Not much, mind you. But even she was smart enough to see that Bernie was finished and she might as well seem to be part of the winning team (not that she's likely to be an actual part of it). What did the JPRs think she was going to do?

Tulsi Gabbard drops out and endorses Joe Biden in disgusting, pandering, cringeworthy video by Ohio Barbarian
2 minutes ago


For people not familiar with the site (which was started people who got PPR'd in DU or couldn't live with the rules here about supporting Democrats and against advocating voting for Jill Swine, etc.),

for many many months the home page had the thing with Bernie at top and Tulsi Gabbard just below. Then about 3 weeks ago(????) I noticed that Tulsi Gabbard had disappeared and was replaced by a Dick Van Dyke video. So maybe there was trouble in paradise before today.

It’s worse than the freepers and their winders95 system.

And those incels are in a civil war what with trump going from denial to all in within 7 days.

I have relatives who say worse than freepers so have no problem viewing their perversions.

I love that she's not on the homepage anymore. I will never forget how many people on that site in 2016 tried to rationalize why Trump would be closer to Bernie than Hillary on issues such as trade and foreign policy. I'll never forget it. It's why I'm so unwilling to even meet them halfway this year in spite of all the calls for unity. I'm all for the Bernie supporters, just not the Busters, which that site would be ground zero for if it had more than ten people posting these days.

Tulsi is a huge blow to the Bernie-or-Bust-a-Bots. From what I could see, many of them saw her as their secondary savior.

Fri Mar 20, 2020, 12:16 AM

I just read one of the moderators on that site stating about Tulsi,

"She's a treacherous bitch as far as the progressive cause is concerned, and as far as I am concerned, she can go to some Hindu hell."

Not only is this sexist, but it's also religiously bigoted as well.

And this is a moderator of the site. Very likely not a Russian bot.
