Patriot Retort: In his column “Bernie Sanders is Funded by the Wealthiest Zip Codes in America,” Daniel Greenfield did a little research into Bernie Sanders’ campaign contributions and discovered that Bernie 2020 isn’t being fueled by the proletariat. These donors are affluent Big Tech people and hipster Marxists.
Why am I not surprised?
These hipster Marxists are affluent, well-educated (and by that I mean have a lot of college, not necessarily a lot of knowledge) and are concentrated in some of the bluest zip codes in the nation.
What do Bernie’s top donor zip codes have in common? Beyond wealth, Bernie’s cash flow is coming from a handful of very blue cities, almost all of them in California and New York City. Only two of the top ten zip codes are located outside San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York City. That alone conveys the insular and unrepresentative nature of Bernie’s funding base compared to the rest of the country.
Bernie’s campaign is powered by the very concentrations of power and wealth that he condemns.
What pampered, privileged lives these hipster Marxists lead.
So while Bernie portrays himself as the candidate of the downtrodden, in reality, his campaign relies almost exclusively on money from people whose lives are going along swimmingly. read more
How can any human being survive the extreme cacophony that must accompany the level of cognitive dissonance caused by being a “wealthy Marxist”?
Wealthy Marxists pay their therapists to sort it all out for them, Al.
When the collapse comes those asswipes will be of the first ones to be hunted down and eliminated!
IT’S ALL ABOUT CONTROL
The velvet rope of communism: non-party members starve, wait in line, fill out paperwork, pay for stamps / registration fees, get rejected for approval….
party members are waived through and eat from the well-stocked trough.
Never kid yourself about what politics really is, controlling all resources to perpetually enable yourself to be in charge of all resources.
What amazes me is that they want all of us to pay more tax while they are free to give away a very large amount of their own money voluntarily.
Jesus Christ.
Americans are so batshit insane now that they scream increasing the US debt makes sense when interest rates are low, but Americans are completely unable to understand that the government doesn’t make a profit.
A company that borrows money at 3% to expand is smart if they have a 10% profit margin.
Money stolen from taxpayers is lost when the government pays for government worker wages, Christmas parties, food stamps, cars, bombs, and Afghan soldier uniforms.

@Anonymous! We are not barbarians! We are not luddites! There will be no camps! (The trains will run in a loop. Like roller coasters. No stops, save the terminals. Yet will always look shiny, new, and empty, at the terminals. We have the technology. We can build them better, stronger, faster.)
