He’d be a centrist in much of Europe so I’m not sure by what metric you consider him extreme.
 
Re: Democratic Challengers 10: If we stop fighting Nazis, the world will die.

Bernie is extreme because we’ve been pulled so hard right thr last few decades.

Makes some people uncomfortable to stop corporate welfare and actually help real people.

Exactly, we already have socialism it just mostly exists for rich ppl.

Next time it snows, make sure you tell the snowplow driver not to plow in front of your place. Get out there and shovel it yourself. And don't drive on those roads. Walk through the woods. And if your house catches fire, grab the garden hose and fight the fire yourself. DO NOT CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT!!! Those are examples of evil Socialism. Using them would be "selling your soul"

You have a reading comprehension problem. I've said several times that I was interested in moving to Scotland in 2016 but then the UK did the whole "Brexit" thing and it became much less attractive. If Scotland gains independence and they retain the current citizenship requirements, I will be more than happy to relocate to Scotland. Right now it just isn't that great a place to be. Better than here, certainly, but not enough to warrant a move of that magnitude.

But please, keep making the joke. It's as fresh and original as it was all those years ago.

Or we can improve this country, which the last 40 years' retreat from "socialism" has turned into a disaster.

The dog whistles aren't working anymore, mookie. That terror the rich drummed into the masses' heads all those years only mesmerized them as long as they still had a marginally better life than their parents to look forward to. But the 1% couldn't leave well enough alone and instead they tried to roll back the New Deal and Make America 1893 Again. And we've had enough.

Sous les pavés, la plage!

A Moderate Left seems extreme when we've been living in a country dominated by the Extreme Right for the last 2 generations.

The country is moving on from our prejudices, Rube. Economic as well as social. Let it go. They will make their world, and it has to be better than the one we've made the last 40 years. The Third Way was a total failure. It's going onto the ash heap of history.

Cut to a scene with Rube carrying a Tiki-Torch while he and his fellow marchers chant "You will not replace us!"

She would have been a million times better than Trump. I would t assume Bernie will fair so much better in the election.

The Russian bot “but her emails” Facebook posts are going to be “but socialism”. See Rube for how that will play out.

I'll believe it when I see it. Because the "vote Blue no matter who" crowd is still larger in the aggregate than true Bernie/AOC supporters. Yeah, you'll get us for this election, but then you've got to hold us together 2 and 4 years later. I have my doubts about that.
