Sanders’ roadshow against oligarchs? Admirable theater, but let’s not pretend it’ll dent the armor of a system

This is Loser Defeatism rhetoric. Please do not slander Bernie Sanders. There are so many great things about Sanders. Sanders is proof that not all politicians lie. He is proof that politicians do not need to be bootlickers. Sanders tells us exactly what our real problems are and he tells us exactly how to fix them. He's right when he tells us what to do (focus on wealth inequality) and he is right when he tells us what not to do (focus on identity politics and personalities).
