Bernie is a Russian Agent, Again

Yes, we are back there again. With corporate Democrats back to smearing everyone to their left as working for Putin.
We were already there in The Great Post-2016 Election Meltdown of 2017.

I hope everyone likes sequels, because that is where we are headed.

It seems that there are ways to spot a Russian Spy.

Proving whether a social media account is a ‘Russian bot’ or not is an inexact science, and some organizations have played fast and loose with the rules before. The Hamilton68 dashboard – a bot-hunting database frequently cited by Russiagate types – doesn’t reveal its methodology, and PropOrNot – another outfit that sees Russian agents everywhere – has declared that anyone using the term “establishment” is a Kremlin stooge. Ben Nimmo, bot-hunter in chief at NATO-sponsored think tank the Atlantic Council, has also claimed that bad grammar is a dead giveaway of paid Russian trolls.
Better not tell Heffernan that Democratic lobbyist Tony Podesta, Clinton strategist Mark Penn, and John McCain’s 2008 campaign manager Steve Schmidt also lobbied for Yanukovych in the late 2000s.

Better not tell her too that some Americans disagreed with Hillary Clinton’s brand of watery, focus-grouped centrism in 2016. That might be too much for a writer who once described Clinton as “an epochal heroine” who “cannot be faulted, criticized, or analyzed for even one more second.”

@Dr. John Carpenter @Dr. John Carpenter And they actually all do share a commonality.

The only criteria for whether a Russian Agent:

People considering a presidential bid -- are their names either Hillary or Kamala?

Yes = Democracy! Vote for Her!
No = Russian Agent

Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.

My first assertion, which is irrelevant to the conversation at hand, but I'm throwing it out there: I don't think there will ever be a political solution to the fiasco in the U.S. at this point...I'm going to comment anyway.

Bernie has been a professional politician for many years; you'd think he'd have a better grasp at how these things go. Especially the two facets of celebrity-cult and group-think "us vs. imagined boogeyman." I'm a layman, but the psychological manipulation ploys are well documented and old...he's gotta know, right?

Anyway, from the jump, when the Bernie=Russian agent idea was thrown into the mix, you'd think he'd have been wise enough to know, going into their fold to appease, was never going to make that vanish...it would always be resurrected, whenever expedient, if he ever looked even remotely cross-eyed in the wrong manner, forevermore; stored "ammunition" that would be hurled whenever desired, and automatically believed by the zombie minions.

Two: Due to the tendency toward the celebrity-cult styling and tradition of the Democratic Party, mostly starting with Bill, but reaching peak height with Obama and Hillary; the inability for critical thought, vs. zombie-regurgitation of whatever mantra employed by the party overlords/sycophant media, would always be reflexively swallowed and echoed to the corners of the earth by the cult worshipers.

Strange he didn't consider this, see it coming, and do the most logical thing...accept Stein's offer and join up over there.

Politically, it seemed the only rational choice, because at the first utterance, he was damaged goods/burned forevermore within Democratic Party, no good-faith trust and can't really accomplish much within their bubble, because the "Russian agent" would always be at the ready for reuse by establishment Dems to control thought, and no matter how ridiculous, probably work on the mindless.

I don't know...I suppose he probably also bought into the idea that Hillary would win, so therefore within the Democratic Party, he still "makes a difference" being on the winning team in Congress. Drank that Kool-Aid too. Shoulda checked those "polling" data support figures; they were a joke.

I mean, look at the Mensch message..."I Don't know if Indy Ossoff is Progressive"....vague, innocuous statement, signifying nothing becomes, "Russia! This is proof!" WTF? How the hell does that even follow?

Virginia Heffernan in 2016: “But such is the courage of Hillary Clinton and her supporters; we reverse patriarchal orders. Maybe she is more than a president. Maybe she is an idea, a world-historical heroine, light itself.”

(HT to snoopydawg)

Okay. . . . If Heffernan -- HRC's royal encomiast -- is sending shots across Bernie's bow this week, to discourage him from running again, that means Hillary is definitely going to run again. Why else do this?

@burnt out @burnt out there is no way in hell Harris is going to win California, NO WAY! lol I mean this is exactly like pre-2016 where I was posting at TOP. "Dirty tricks already?" or similar title two years before any votes were even cast.

Clinton tools never stop, never ever. Bernie won California by the way. Or he would have if they had counted all the votes. Padilla and Becerra are not good role models if you ask me. Edit: this video:

@eyo
Her record of rights violations, pettiness, and the fact that she’s less than ‘truthful’ most of the time. Her record of dating Willie Brown who gave her career a ‘boost’ and she was well paid for it. BUT she keeps getting elected to political office. Why then wouldn’t California vote for her?

Thanks.
