What a fake quote on the fake news ? <| sep |> Hory shit ! So if my maths are right , it ' s about 0 . 28 per stone if you buy 7 , 0 . 29 per stone for 31 , and . 37 per stone for 130 . <| sep |> Perhaps the elderly patrons of the current mall that can ' t pull off the Forever 21 clothing <| sep |> I feel like Bernie Sanders already normalized the language we can use to change direction . I think it would be wise to consider that the route any real movement takes necessarily goes through the ideological middle of the countryback to the ideals of democracy , plurality , freedom , and the other grand enterprises that America at least told itself it strives for . That means racing out to the regular people who have never spent time in those back rooms theorizing about difficult , ground shaking ideas . It means walking , step by step , across the political landscape in every conversation , seeking out the character traits of fairness and open mindedness , and building from there . What i often see from the far left is this reliance on esoteric language and themes as a way for individuals to disassociate themselves from normal read common parlance and organization . It ' s easier to spout something from some academic in that lofty tongue as though the purpose is to strike a knock out blow in the conversation . Conversely , the far right plays the easy game of appealing to latent and semi exposed feelings of xenophobia , racism , misogyny and onthat whole range of ideologies is available to exploit for the fascist , etc . The first stage job of the counter mover there is embedded in the language Sanders normalized . We cannot skip that , and every person needs to be given a chance to consider another position . It sounds like ten times the work , but it ' s work that can actually be done . The alternative Revolution ! is instantly off putting and makes the listener instantly feel like their role is to follow the person who told them about it . The time for lofty ideas in vacuums is past . The time for getting the hands dirty and working from the beginning is here . Seriously , Sanders ran as a democratic socialist . Whether that means anything more than FDR democrat or not is irrelevant . That word is out there . Let ' s start with them , demonstrating humility and genuine comraderie and courage to people who simply find it easier to be afraid and place their hopes on a string leader rather than in their community and countrymen . My two cents anyway .
