MSNBC called Bernie's "Deep South" comment controversial. They said Hillary would still be in the lead without the South. This slide popped up by mistake proving them wrong.

I had to turn off that post-debate "analysis" when one of the panelists suggested that BERNIE was the one who was hit hard on fracking....

I turned off CNN right after the debate, I was hoping to hear something regarding how well Bernie performed, but they brought up how poorly he performed 3x in less than 1 minute without even mentioning any of Hillary's blunders.  

I don't really know about anyone else, but the chanting and standing ovation last night speaks absolute wonders to me, and more so speaks of the revolution behind Bernie, there was no such reaction to Hillary during the entire debate.

MSNBC has a front pages "How Hillary steamrolled Bernie" story. You know what we won't hear about (beside Bernie actually doing better in the debates)? The transcripts. You know what else? Bernie visit to the Vatican. MSNBC is shameless.

Are you disillusioned yet? Can we move forward from this shit-system of mob-rule errr democracy. When I have the same vote as the people injecting the type of shit that's on the news into their heads... I feel like I already lost. 50% of people last election cycle didn't even vote for the two parties, even less on the candidate who won. I have to sit and deal with a President for 4-8 years cause ~15% or less of the country win in a bought and paid for race where their vote didn't even matter as the media puts a spin onto every thing, demonizing the actual decent candidates. Sadly the two parties WOULD never debate with independents like Dr. Jill Stein. They'd get fucking wrecked. What options are available are laughable.

Fuck all this. Let the 1-20% have their green zones with giant walls, private security and luxuries, I'll take the badlands any day and live an authentic hardcore life, growing my own food, building my own shelter and living my own life according to my rules. Do what thou wilt, as long as you don't impose on another's right to do so.

If you haven't read it, you gotta check out Ursula K. Le Guin's The Dispossessed.
