"My friends, you don’t have to be a PhD in political science to understand that this is not democracy. This is not one person, one vote. This is not all of us coming together to decide our future. This is oligarchy."

Sanders will say that It's OK to Be Angry About Capitalism, and he’ll complain about “crony” capitalism and “über” capitalism, but as a liberal he’ll never question capitalism as such. He’ll never question private ownership of the means of production.

I think the trick is to move the needle. I still think he has solid ideas to shift the paradigm. Link from 2020 run

The capitalist class is never going to relinquish their control of the state[1][2] through needle movement[3].
