Summary

Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez condemned Donald Trump and Elon Musk at a packed Arizona rally, accusing them of harming working-class Americans and promoting oligarchy.

Sanders denounced corporate CEOs as “major criminals” exploiting workers, while Ocasio-Cortez called for stronger Democratic leadership.

Rallygoers urged Ocasio-Cortez to challenge Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer after he supported a Republican funding bill.

The rally, part of Sanders’ “Stop Oligarchy” tour, follows criticism of the Democratic Party’s weak response to Trump’s agenda and features further events in Colorado and Arizona.

    You’re banking on a generation of red-pilled fascists to fix the problem? Social progress is not a guarantee when older generations die out.

    Your “solutions” rely on the Rule of Law and Separation of Powers, both of which were dissolved after Trump v. United States.

    You’re about ten years behind what’s actually happening.

      In the United States, maybe.

      The rest of the world is doing much better, especially since people are studying what is happening to the USA.

      I wrote a different comment you can look up, but to combat red pilling, we all need to get more involved in youth programs and make ourselves available to growing adults and help provide structure & guidance.
