I KNEW Jack Pine Radicals could be counted on for an entertaining response to Gabbard endorsement...

[brooklynite]

It’s on Twitter and I can’t post it here, but I saw the video. It’s downright repulsive. I just lost all respect for Tulsi.

I had to turn it off mid stream. Our last hope — gone.

Between events of 2016 and now 2020, my personal antipathy and disgust for American politics and Neo-Liberal economic policy has grown stronger.

1. If Tulsi Gabbard

was their last hope, they must not have had much hope to begin with.

[Cha]

21. Really.. why would she be their last hope..

especially in light of the event that she endorsed Joe Biden.. their nemesis of all the candidates?!

[tblue37]

26. That's why they're in despair--she *was* their last hope, and she just disappointed them. nt

2. Whaaaa whaaa!

3. "I just lost all respect for Tulsi."

I finally managed to have a little. Not much, mind you. But even she was smart enough to see that Bernie was finished and she might as well seem to be part of the winning team (not that she's likely to be an actual part of it). What did the JPRs think she was going to do?

5. They must be hemorraging members, they unlocked my account.

6. In JPR Latest Breaking News: "Tulsi Gabbard ... in disgusting, pandering, cringeworthy video"

Tulsi Gabbard drops out and endorses Joe Biden in disgusting, pandering, cringeworthy video by Ohio Barbarian
2 minutes ago

For people not familiar with the site (which was started people who got PPR'd in DU or couldn't live with the rules here about supporting Democrats and against advocating voting for Jill Swine, etc.),

for many many months the home page had the thing with Bernie at top and Tulsi Gabbard just below. Then about 3 weeks ago(????) I noticed that Tulsi Gabbard had disappeared and was replaced by a Dick Van Dyke video. So maybe there was trouble in paradise before today.

[Blue Owl]

7. Tulsi was their last hope? Sad!

[grossproffit]

8. JPR Bernie Baggers wanted Bernie's campaign slogan to be "Vote Bernie Sanders Hindsight is 2020"

[Cha]

22. Yeah.. No.

[demtenjeep]

10. that is still a thing?

I remember the pontifical historian, writer, politics master, gang fighter, official member of the press left here and went there and still couldn't hang .


I thought that place was done

[NCProgressive]

11. Here is another gem from JPR

http://jackpineradicals.com/boards/topic/my-final-thoughts/

It is a GBCW post that gives a window into the stupidity.

[betsuni]

12. "I am officially done with politics as of today."

That person is probably posting on DU right now.

[Cha]

23. Such a sad sad sad day for them.. I recognize

3 posters on there who used to be here.

Thanks for the link, North Carolina! So appreciate they're there.

[mcar]

13. "Our last hope - gone"

[mcar]

14. I just spent 10 minutes there

Haven't been in a long while.

[ProfessorGAC]

15. Was The User Interface Always Like That?

Really clunky. I don't remember that.

[mcar]

17. Not at the beginning

It was a bit more professional then. I think a lot of the early absconders from DU have left the place. I didn't see too many familiar names - although I think only 5 people were posting.

[Turin_C3PO]

18. I was a Bernie fan in 2016

and went to that site to commiserate with fellow Sanders supporters. The hate for Hillary Clinton and love for Trump quickly drove me away. They are very sad people.

[mcar]

20. Happy to have you still here!

IIRC, one of the main reasons they formed the place was so they could call HRC the C word.

[MineralMan]

16. I went there the other day. It was so slow, that I think

It's hosted on an IBM PC Jr.

[Cha]

19. Bingo! Had to get neo*******Liberal in there! lol

Poor Wretched Brainwashed souls They have no one but themselves to blame.. they could always Think for themselves.

[GulfCoast66]

24. I would not even load on my iPad.

It’s worse than the freepers and their winders95 system.

And those incels are in a civil war what with trump going from denial to all in within 7 days.

I have relatives who say worse than freepers so have no problem viewing their perversions.

[nolawarlock]

25. Not surprised at any of this.

I love that she's not on the homepage anymore. I will never forget how many people on that site in 2016 tried to rationalize why Trump would be closer to Bernie than Hillary on issues such as trade and foreign policy. I'll never forget it. It's why I'm so unwilling to even meet them halfway this year in spite of all the calls for unity. I'm all for the Bernie supporters, just not the Busters, which that site would be ground zero for if it had more than ten people posting these days.

Tulsi is a huge blow to the Bernie-or-Bust-a-Bots. From what I could see, many of them saw her as their secondary savior.

[Gothmog]

27. I still remember the idiots on that board being happy about JOHN Lewis being booed

[LanternWaste]

30. It was a combo of that and their reponse to Planned Parenthood that cemented my opinion of them

[nolawarlock]

28. So the Bro sexism and other bigotry is all fake?

I just read one of the moderators on that site stating about Tulsi,

"She's a treacherous bitch as far as the progressive cause is concerned, and as far as I am concerned, she can go to some Hindu hell."

Not only is this sexist, but it's also religiously bigoted as well.

And this is a moderator of the site. Very likely not a Russian bot.

[LisaM]

29. Our last hope...gone!

Last hope to what? Completely destroy the Democratic party?

[Gore1FL]

31. Why do you stalk them?

If you are so enthralled by the site, you should get an account; it's much less creepy that way.

[Codeine]

32. What do you mean "them"?

You’re part of “them” by your own admission. JPR is a vile shithole full of virulently sexist sentiment and anyone who would participate there should be ashamed.

[Gore1FL]

33. I apparently visit the site less than people who don't have accounts there.

I find it weird.

I wonder if people at JPR look for idiotic threads here and post about them. Maybe one of the many stalker-types here knows!
