I caucused for Bernie both times. The first time, Clinton's staffers misdirected and intimidated a bunch of Bernie supporters to stand on her side of the room. No one realized what had happened until after the count was taken, but by then it was too late, and the person running the caucus turned a deaf ear to our complaints. We were told that we'd be thrown out/arrested if we continued to make a disturbance.

The second time, we didn't have enough people for Bernie to be considered a "viable" candidate, and that's only because the people from the Biden side of the room convinced half of our group that we were not viable (we were, but that was the first caucus for most of the Bernie supporters and they didn't know how it worked)

If you're not familiar with caucuses, I don't blame you; they are an antiquated, easily manipulated system that needs to be thrown out.

All you have to do to defeat that is to fucking vote.

And in places where the party's fuckery succeeds, you'll pretend that the primaries are fair because you like the results.

Yeah, there was talk about them rigging the 2016 primary for Clinton with the superdelegates if Bernie was ahead, but it never reached that point because Clinton secured the nomination before the convention.

The party successfully argued in court that it could decide the nominee in a smoke filled room without the input of the voters if it wanted. Then it did just that in 2024. And you pretend it was fair because a genocide candidate was nominated.
