Well Bernie has ruined my life

21. I'm gonna' break up this glum pity party

SmittynMo says: People ignored it like the plague.

This is a major movement and you guys are just having in a snit 'cuz you didn't get all you wanted. I was excited this morning when I saw that Cornel West and Trumka have already thrown out TPP on the platform discussion table. That is major!! (there's a thread on it here)

I am not assuming a Clinton win, either. A lot can happen in the next few months. If she does, however, the Repubs and Dems are facing third parties. I just heard this morning on the radio about a new strategy to deprive Trump of the nomination. The host came right out and said that it sounded like just another way to keep voters from getting what they wanted.

I predict that if Bernie does not win the presidency, he will play a major role in the Senate or he will form a third party and really be in their faces. Whatever happens, he is going to be highly visible and that is going to go on for quite some time.

As far as the OP goes, I am in total sympathy. TV is easy, and now I can no longer watch Rachel or any of those other shows, and I have total disgust for Hollywood, not that I didn't already have that before, but now ech.

In regard to media, I've set up computers in my kitchen, bedroom, and office. I just watch youtube. You pretty much get the "best of" there, so there's a lot less to filter.

As far as the future goes, this is the way people are going to be watching, particularly the younger generation. For now, yes, TV rules, but there are more and more younger political commentators starting their own channels, and it's quite exciting to watch them. This is one of the things I do for a living--teach them English and communication, including production--so it is quite gratifying for me to see them taking off, especially when their political opinions concur with mine!!
