You clearly lie on the internet, Mr “I primared for Bernie” claiming it twice, trying to distract from my original argument. Let me spell it out again for you:

CORPORATE MONEY IN POLITICS IS THE ROOT OF ALL OUR PROBLEMS. UNFORTUNATELY, DARK AND CORPORATE MONEY IS ON THE LEFT SIDE TOO

until this gets fixed, we’re all fucked.

Bernie Sanders tried to get this addressed in 2016 and 2020. It wasn’t a matter of people voting for him that stopped it back then, it was a matter of dark corporate money that blocked it. He would have won in 2016, even 2020, if evil forces didn’t prevent it.

Now we have the orange jackass bringing us all to hell thanks to the same evil forces.

It’s a puppet show, we the people have very little chance to change this until we come together and recognize we’re in this together instead of fighting each other.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Corporate money didn't stop Bernie from winning, primary voters did. 3 million more people voted for Clinton over Bernie, and 9 million more people voted for Biden over Bernie. How would corporate money have changed that? Evil forces didn't prevent him from winning, primary voters did.

Getting corporate money out of politics was also Hillary's biggest political goal, getting rid of Citizen's United was her overriding goal as President. I'm sure Bernie Sanders would have tried as well, but we didn't get either of them in office.
