Bernie's old, bro. Look, I love the guy, but he's at an age where he struggles to do what he can, let alone what he "should." This isn't an admonishment of him; if anything, it's an admonishment of all of us on the left for continuing to foist our hopes and dreams on a man that deserves to rest. It's well past time for us all to take part.

We must stop the celebrity worshipping.

It is just sad at this point.

We must force politicians to move to the left and to do our bidding.

Being their good little lawyers on the defense will not help us; it does the opposite.
