Political Revolution

I'd just like to say on behalf of all socialists in Britain, over here we are still feeling the Bern !!! I ask you, my brothers and sisters, to rage against the machine !! Stick it to the man !! Continue the political revolution !!! In the name of Bernie Sanders, one day the Earth will be a peaceful place !! Peace, love and light !!

How does one rage against the machine, stick it to the man and what is the goal of this political revolution?

Well, to rage against the machine, listen to socialist music, like twenty one pilots, CSNY, Neil Young and Rage Against the Machine. To stick it to the man you say to Trump if he wins "Screw you I ain't gonna do what you tell me." And the goal is peace, love and light.

So, basically, what you call for is rage in the name of peace. Identify the comrades, identify the enemy and then war for peace. Because if there is one solution to end senseless aggression, it's political partisanship...

What makes you qualified to speak on everyone's behalf? And what does Sanders have to do with this country?

I'm not sure you understand what you are saying.

You know Sanders is no longer in the race, right? It is Clinton, Trump, Johnson, and Stein. What do you propose if any of the other 3 win?
Unfortunately Bernie most likely wont live to see his next chance (8 years, 2nd term is almost guarantied at over 70%). Even if he did, he would be dead before his final term finishes lol.

But I'm not even sure who your post is directed to. Americans, American socialist, EU citizens, EU socialist, UK citizens, or UK socialist?

To get to peace we must rage?

To be good socialists we must support the careers of bands in the employ of Warner and Sony?

Bernie Sanders is certainly socialist by the standards of mainstream American politics. By UK standards I'd say he still comes in rather farther right than our current right-wing government.

Revolutions are rarely peaceful, sadly. Ideological transitions can occur in peaceful ways, but they're rarely sexy enough to warrant lots of exclamation marks and defiant songs.

I just might. My car seems to keep breaking down on me, at THE worst possible moment. (Breathe Manu, breathe)

Sorry, can't, I'm married.

If Bernie supporters were going to vote 3rd party because (well most I know can't stand Hillary either), I'm curious which one you think would fit better- Jill or Johnson?

In random news, I was rather disappointed to learn that PBS edited Jill's commentary on Hillary Clinton out of their television special.

Sorry. :laugh: Couldn't help it.

I am glad to see, though, that the suggested actions in this thread are pretty much just sit at home and listen to music. I always get worried when I see the words "Political Revolution" in a thread title. I start to worry that people are trying to stir up crazy actions and things that'll put the Temple of the FBI's watch list. Not somewhere I want to be. :laugh: I've seen those kinds of threads here before and they don't tend to go well, for anyone.
