1. Okay...

So much for their brand of socialism.

[Cha]

24. Yeah, maybe we can use this.. The DSA won't

endorse Joe Biden!

28. That's a good start.

[Blue Owl]

2. Smart move!

[Skittles]

3. true colors

[TexasTowelie]

4. Something to remember for those who believe

that the Democratic Party and the DSA are either interchangeable or allies. We may be able to work together on some policies and issues, but their platform and agenda are different from that of the Democratic Party.

[TwilightZone]

10. Their agenda is to take over the party and use it to overthrow capitalism.

This is an endorsement we can do without.

[MyOwnPeace]

5. That's OK

That nose you cut off won't help anyhow after IQ45 continues his destruction of the EPA, as well as other "social agencies" that you might claim to endorse.

[demigoddess]

6. so they prefer trdumphf?

I thought they should be smarter than that.

[MustLoveBeagles]

7. Whatever

So tired of stupidity.

Get out of the way crybabies. We have a country to save.

[TwilightZone]

8. Good.

There are only about 50,000 of them, and we don't need their "overthrow capitalism" brand of politics linked to Biden.

[LuvNewcastle]

40. I agree.

Their endorsement would be the kids of death to Biden. Hell, I hope they endorse Trump.

[napi21]

9. I'd like to hear WHY they won't vote for Joe. All of us, including BS supporters hate when the Pubs

always support DT no matter what he says or does, they're treating him like a cult leader! That seems to be how Bernie's supporters are treating Bernie. It's gotta be BS or nobody. Am I wrong?

[KPN]

33. Wrong by my example, but I can only speak for myself. Though I do

suspect that, as in 2016, there are really far more like me by a long shot. With 3 plus years’ experience w/ the evil moron currently in the WH, I suspect even fewer no vote/3rd party votes will come from Bernie supporters in 2020 — in part because there were fewer Bernie’s supporters overall this time around.

[FoxNewsSucks]

39. Where did it say they wouldn't vote for Biden?

They don't have to endorse to vote. All we need are their votes.

Not endorsing means differing policy views. Unless they state otherwise, I'd guess that democratic socialists will still vote Biden over MF45

[napi21]

41. You're right. I made a poor assumption that not endorsing meant don't like, don't want & won't

vote for him. I apologize.

[blm]

11. Ignore all of it for a few weeks.

Fer chrissakes, they are like teenaged kids screaming for space....let them have it.

[TwilightZone]

17. Nah, this is the usual for them.

They didn't even want to endorse Bernie - he wasn't far enough left for them - but they decided he could be used to pursue their agenda of taking over the party.

This isn't teenagers looking for space. This is their usual shtick.

[Poiuyt]

12. If they think that America is better off with trump than Biden, they're wrong

Trump’s influence won’t be over in four years. His stacking the courts with right-wing ideologues will affect us for at least a generation. I doubt if RBG can last another four years. If she goes, and trump replaces her with another conservative, it’s good bye women’s rights.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

19. Probably still hoping for the Sarandon revolution. nt

[EllieBC]

13. Well generally I do not negotiate with toddlers.

I mean take your red firetruck and go home. No one cares.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

14. Fuck' em, then; and who cares?

[ebbie15644]

15. So?

[katmondoo]

16. They sound like assholes to me. I don't support Them either.

[Azathoth]

18. Can say from personal experience the DSA crowd are digging in

They're circulating articles by Glenn Greenwald and others about how younger minorities are the ones who don't vote and how telling Sanders voters they need to vote Democratic is the height of "white privilege."

They're working aggressively to lay the foundations for Bernie voters staying home in November.

[PlanetBev]

20. We are Purists

Therefore, we will cut off our nose to spite our face.

[Cha]

21. They're "endorsing" trump then. poor things don't give a shit

[smirkymonkey]

22. I really think these people are completely insane.

They have no logical argument at all.

[vercetti2021]

23. Honestly I don't know how any self-respecting Bernie supporter can even be associated with these

People. Seriously those who are rational just start distancing yourself from these self righteous dorks because they are just weird.

[safeinOhio]

25. Follow the money and

the smell will lead straight to Putin.

[nycbos]

27. Yup

[dalton99a]

29. +1

[2naSalit]

31. +1

[nycbos]

26. I'm Joe Biden and I approve this message.

[mcar]

30. Thus rendering themselves irrelevant

No one should pay them any attention ever again.

[The Magistrate]

32. Some People, Sir

You are better off having outside the tent and pissing in than inside the tent pissing out ... pace Lyndon Baines.

[jaysunb]

34. Reminds me of the Yippies and SDS folks. n/t

[still_one]

35. Thank-you

[walkingman]

36. As a Bernie supporter, these people lose all credibility acting like this.

[BlueLucy]

37. When republicans call Joe a socialist..

He can now say, "Socialist refused to endorse me."

[William769]

38. Did anyone here actually think they would?

[not_the_one]

42. I would posit that...

1. They SURE aren't democrats

2. They aren't even socialists

3. They are PUTIN's (and thereby the turd's) tools to divide and conquer.

They think we are all idiots. If you aren't for Biden, then you ARE for the turd.

But that is just me.

[MyNameGoesHere]

43. Well hell. There goes 25 votes.

[HarlanPepper]

44. If they mattered then Bernie would be the nominee

[SidDithers]

45. DSA need to be treated like Republicans...

They’re not allies. They’ve no interest in electing Democrats.

Sid

[kacekwl]

46. Apparently they like the shit sandwich with broken glass

instead of the chicken. Who are these folks anyway ? Do they matter ?

[tavernier]

47. DUH

[Happy Hoosier]

48. Who?

Does anybody care?

[GulfCoast66]

49. Good. These folks don't want Western European style government

Which is strongly capitalist with Social Democratic policies. They are the real deal Socialist. They say thru Democratic means. But they always do. Until the majority rejects them.

Government owning the means of production. Truly Venezuela style shit. There’s a reason there are only 50k of them.

I’ve read their policy statements. They are not our friends. Never will be.
