A) "populist-hating"

To me that means elitist. Also as a populist myself, you can see why that'd be bad

B) You're very socially liberal (not in terms of authoritarian/libertarian, in terms of conservatism/liberalism on a social senses if that makes any sense); I'm basically socially conservative (though still socially libertarian)

C) You're too close to the bottom right quadrant for comfort, but the main issue is the with the first two.

populist-hating means hating the rhetorical strategy of trump, sanders, etc. I hate the emotional appeals, the tribalism, etc. and feel that it all distracts from good policy.

I am left of center on economics, I just care more about social issues and am annoyed by the #edgy "capitalism is evil" stuff.

Jesus Conservative

also - no, omegascarlet is not the establishment. I may hate the Democratic establishment, but they are not that delusional or radical. In some ways, I'd like them better if they were (not saying much of anything,  but)...

What is "radical" and "delusional" about me. I certainly have a few weird social stances, but that can't be enough.

Also, why are you randomly slinging mud again. You don't respond to mischaracterizations of other people's ideologies.

Not what the campaign was about, and since you don't realise that you're probably third-way.

SKIP.

Those were meant to be two different things, though sanders did focus too much on A. the rich being terrible and B. pandering to lower-middle class(not poor), and not enough on the impovrished. It says something about socialists(at least the ones I've seen on this site) that they seem to have no complaints about such a campaign.

Sanders did focus on the interests of the poor, and mentioned poverty, inequaity, and lack of jobs in his campaign, to say otherwise is disingenuous.

SKIP

And when he did, it was in the context of evil billionaires. The "lack of jobs" was "the billionaires outsourcing them", the mention of inequality was "these billionaires are too rich", and the mentions of poverty seemed to be a part of the "why billionaires are evil" presentation.

BTW I don't think I've actually seen one of you actually criticize sanders lack of focus on the truly poor.

The reasons to why he mentioned billionares, are because the gross poverty that results in the country, is because of massive income inequality, and reinforced through the massive wealth the billlionares reciveve, get and keep.

Three of these were before the campaign even started. He did talk about poverty a bit, but his main focus was the lower middle class. His biggest policies of the campaign were free collage and student debt(appeals to middle and lower middle class collage educated millennials), Universal Healthcare(which does help the poor a lot, but the poor are more focused on having food and paying the rent because they're in that bad of a situation; the people who are strongly interested in it are more middle-class people who have the money to pay for healthcare and thus see it being really overly expensive and flawed), and the minimum wage(which actually does help poor people who can get a job, but he fails to mention unemployment). Too much of the campaign is framed as a movement, a group united by ideology, and not enough about simply helping people. Why do we have to add a bunch of class conflict to the mix?
