[QUOTE=rilez;50775016]Well, after it was revealed the DNC colluded against and suppressed the Bernie campaign throughout the primaries, they are now taking their signs, threatening to revoke their convention access, and calling them "ridiculous" at the convention.
So yeah, people are pissed.[/QUOTE]
Bernie and his supporters need to do the world a favor by growing some balls and backstabbing the DNC for all the bullshit they've pulled
[QUOTE=RIPBILLYMAYS;50774978]I explained it in an earlier post[/QUOTE]
Not in this thread, you complained that the democrats 'pandering' to Latinos, and accused illegal immigrants of voting for democrats.
[QUOTE=evilweazel;50775012]Ok, I can understand that.
Who was the original comment targeted at, though?
It sounds like an easy story to spin.[/QUOTE]
Only at illegal immigrants. I was just saying that I'm not surprised Latinx in general are pissed.
[quote]In terms or organization it's better, and the crowd is not that unruly considering the bombshellnof the DNC email scandal, the speakers have been mostly ok. [/quote]
Just wait until you go back and watch the beginning of the convention before Sanders' delegates were getting muzzled. Speakers were having trouble even talking over the furor.
[QUOTE=person11;50775018]In terms or organization it's better, and the crowd is not that unruly considering the bombshellnof the DNC email scandal, the speakers have been mostly ok. I liked Franken's comedy routine and I need to catch up on whatever Silverman did. I really liked Guitierrez and the former intern a lot. Where is the cringe? Was it just Silverman?[/QUOTE]
It's better organized? How?
Suppressing dissenters is pretty organized, I guess.
BLACK LIVES MATTER BLACK LIVES MATTER
Oh boy BLM
blm chanting now
sounds like the warhawk guy too
[QUOTE=Raidyr;50775011]We put a man on the moon thanks to a New England Democrat while conservatives complained that we should have been spending money on bombers.[/QUOTE]
That is a silly line of reasoning as that means that the Republicans could be called the biggest proponents of equality.
THATS NOT HOW DEMOCRACY WORKS MR BOOKER
I MEAN ASK SCHULTZ
Also: How long is this speech?

I've only been paying attention to the speeches when the plane got a good signal around 7, so I guess I must have missed the 1968 style whipping and furor.

Sanders needs to grow some balls and do the thing that is against his interests because it would help Trump win*
increasingly sweaty man
[QUOTE=evilweazel;50775028]It's better organized? How?

Pretty much that, and I'm guessing the last speakers won't be presiding over empty seats.
[QUOTE=patq911;50775020]i fucking hate this assumption that leftists can't be patriotic or love the founding fathers.[/QUOTE]
Not assuming that?
I'm saying that when leftists politicians use them to evoke emotion, it sounds really rehearsed to me.
[QUOTE=evilweazel;50774991]Was the whole "rapists, murderers" soundbite actually targeted at all mexicans?
I heard it was targeted at illegals, but I never heard the actual comment itself, and I can't seem to find an actual full clip of the comment.[/QUOTE]I believe it was but the way he did it was ambiguous, but given the bullshit smear campaigns in American politics it really doesn't matter. Later at the RNC he [I]specifically[/I] had to remind everyone that he was talking about illegal immigrants. (holding up his fingers and going "ILLEGALS, illegals, [I]illegals"[/I])
[QUOTE=person11;50775000]Pretty much everyone Latinx person I know and have heard and talked to was offended by the comments, regardless of whether they were undocumented or not.[/QUOTE]I was offended because it was more disingenuous bullshit, most people who jump the border are essentially peasants working shitty peasant jobs. I think the vast majority of crime surrounding the border is directly tied to the war on drugs, not random "rapists and murderers."
[QUOTE=person11;50775018]In terms or organization it's better, and the crowd is not that unruly considering the bombshellnof the DNC email scandal, the speakers have been mostly ok.[/QUOTE]lmao yeah because they have police going through the crowd yanking signs away and silencing people.
[QUOTE=patq911;50775020]i fucking hate this assumption that leftists can't be patriotic or love the founding fathers.[/QUOTE]Most of the American leftists are not the kind you're probably imagining, they're more often than not whores for authoritarianism.
My god we are going into the 30 minute mark
BERNIE'S SPEECH = BAD YES OR NO
i love watching the twitch chat. it's mostly shitting on the convention intermingled with "CAN'T STUMP THE TRUMP", but every once in a while, for a split second, you can see a giant ASCII picture of a naked lady
[QUOTE=Raidyr;50775041]Sanders needs to grow some balls and do the thing that is against his interests because it would help Trump win*[/QUOTE]
If what his interests are go against what is fundamentally fair then what does that say about him?
Cory.
It's time to get off the fucking stage.
corys fucking killing it
[QUOTE=Raidyr;50775041]Sanders needs to grow some balls and do the thing that is against his interests because it would help Trump win*[/QUOTE]
at this point trump can already win, with all the garbage the DNC pulled, its great ammunition.
If Bernie denounces what happen, he can save the party for the future. or at least lay the path for a new democratic party.
Its difficult to reform corruption.
This guy is the only guy who has had a decent speech thus far although it has had little to no actual substance about Hillary and mostly just nationalist rhetoric (which is kind of ironic)

I can generalize, too! Anyone who is in the right is a retard braindead fuckface dead brain stupid bitch whore bitch man!
Fucking got 'em, man! You know it's true, too! Whores for Trump's cuck cock, got them again!
if you want to be taken seriously stop making these idiotic generalizations of "the left."
[QUOTE=lolwutdude;50775055]corys fucking killing it[/QUOTE]
No he's not.
[QUOTE=Smug Bastard;50775060]No he's not.[/QUOTE]
yes he is
"Cynicism is not the work of the home of the brave"
BOOKER CONFIRMED TOOLSHED
ALSO "Let us rise"
I WANT THIS MAN AS PRESIDENT NOW
[QUOTE=Smug Bastard;50775054]Cory.
It's time to get off the fucking stage.[/QUOTE]Cory is the only one who's been any good so far and serious at the same time. Otherwise it's jokesters or fucking sycophants.
[B]HERE COMES BERNIE
PREPARE YOURSELVES[/B]
