Not defending this (I quite like Bernie myself), but I also wonder if this is only part of the Ticketmaster story. There was a good John Oliver about them this past year where he basically pointed out the MASSIVE monopoly Ticketmaster has because of the venues they own the rights for (I think that was it) through Live Nation. Basically if you want to show at anything of a good venue in any city, you HAVE TO go through Ticketmaster. It's terrible. Good 20 minute watch:



Not saying he/his team couldn't have done more.

Love Oliver. TBH, my post was more to prove a point. Any politician, anyone in power, can be made to look bad regardless of the situation.

Is Bernie a hypocrite? Not really, but if you present a situation in a certain way, it looks really shady or even criminal.

This is the problem with some in here. Take something mildly questionable and twist it to show deviance or conspiracy. It’s so easy, takes very little investment, and yet creates so much chaos because of the gullible nature of the general public.

It's funny because your point failed to be made. Instead of creating a conspiracy, people including myself, pointed out some of Bernie's shortcomings.

Nice try though

Who's making up conspiracies now?

You're the king of making up statement and
Posting about how right you are. Self congratulate much? To funny.

Could you create a new political discussion thread so that I don't click on it and have to read all the stupidity please?

but you must admit, Prez is a comedian. I always enjoy when a nobody thinks the world is out to get them, but in reality, no one gives a shit about them. It’s funny.

Hey look, it's the quadruple Dutch rudder all-stars all together in the same space.

Isn't there a specific thread that was created for you guys to jerk each other off in? It'd be nice if you kept all the self love there, thanks.
- everyone not interested in hearing 4 dudes jerk each other off

frustrated with losing? Maybe this ain’t a game you’re cut out to play.

Clearly a product of helicopter parents.

I fixed it, there was a complaint about name calling.
There hasn't been a single thing I've discussed that you've disproven. Grabbing 4 buddies and patting each other on the bum for thinking the same isn't how you actually win a debate.

Nice edit but the misogyny is still out in the open with "Bloated and his girlfriends..."

I've set up a Go Fund Me page for your ex's, so that they can afford better lawyers and get trauma therapists for your kids.

Assuming that girls are somehow worse then boys is actuall misogyny. Taking it as an insult reveals your trauma and your ingrained misogyny.

Couldn't refrain from going low, can you?

Your mom would be proud Marwood, well done bringing peoples families into it, congrats on proving my point, fu□king goof.

Didn't this all start with your announcement of winning custody in family court?

Cool, so that makes it OK to bring family into it? My telling people that something hugely positive has happened for my family?

That's what your moral compass tells you?

That my disagreeing with your pandemic politics makes my children a fair target for abuse? That makes it ok to talk about what a poopty father I must be, and how you're starting a go fund me to take my kids away?

Make up poop about me being alt-right or a conspiracy theorist, gun loving science denier all you want, I don't give a poop what you want to say or make up about me but there are lines that are not OK to cross.

Like I said, I know your mom and know for a fact that she would be very proud of you.

Wah, wah, wah! You can dish it out but sure can't take it back

Grow up, son and my Mom doesn't have a clue who I am.

Tells personal sob story to gain sympathy. Instead of sympathy finds ridicule. Complains.

I'm sorry your mom has lost it, she was quite the stately woman and like I said, would be ashamed of you acting in this manner.

You and bloated are classless goofs who can't even have a debate or internet argument without losing your temper, to funny, what trash.

Probably think there's nothing wrong with China interfering with the 2021 election in favor of your dear leader either? Typical drones.
