2016 Postmortem

. I don't really want either of them: one is to far to the center, one is too far to the left. Neither one really speaks for me but I know I'd prefer either over our other options and my criticism of Susan Sarandon has only to do with her and comes from the heart. I don't give a shit about scoring points against Bernie. I like him but I'm being honest with myself: the Left has gotten weird over the last few years for lack of better terms. I'm really alienated by it. It's gotten so radical and just absolutely nihilist and destructive compared to how it was in the Bush years. I can't stand the way so much of this sort of Liberaltarian know-nothing anti-establishment types have dictated the tone. Too many people just spewing bumper sticker slogans and trying to pass it off as thinking. I live in SF supposedly some liberal bastion but the truth is most people here are very liberal as a pose. They don't give give a crap about working class people, they just wanna look cool. Susan personifies that heartless arrogance perfectly with her words. Try to parse it however but it just makes it look like you're ready to toss me to the wolves too. But maybe chalk it up to surrogates going off the reservation and saying offensive crap that their candidate would never say. Bernie deserves better. I mean that in multiple ways.
