    I love you Bernie, and I voted for you every time, but your words need to inspire action, we know what the problem is already.

      we know what the problem is already.

      Only part of the country does. If everyone knew what the problem was, we wouldn’t be where we are. Additionally, some people need this type of perspective because they can’t draw that conclusion on their own.

        We need Bernie to spit it out in words they can understand.

      Huge numbers of people who benefit directly from the work of the NLRB vote for people who openly want to gut it. The reason every authoritarian regime seeks to control the media is simple - it works. Americans created an information environment where Fox News spewed their filth and lies day in and day out for decades. This was the inevitable conclusion to that. Those in this bubble who supported this see everything that’s happening as the smashing for the deep state, and a federal government that “didn’t do anything for anyone anyways”. They’re wrong and they’ll be hurt, but so will everyone else.
