that's not the case this time.
(thinking of warren here obv. biden and pete are still pretty bad lol)

ON THE OTHER HAND the "biden in first! nipping at his heels in third..." stuff we endured for much of the summer isn't how i remember bernie being covered before primaries actually started in 2016, when there was thought to be no danger in chuckling over an amusing hippie sideshow and opportunity to boast about how civilized our differences are here in the big tent; but this time he has been a real candidate from the beginning so we get this sweating, murderous silence

Not really, though, next to Kamala he has pretty clearly had the worst campaign compared to expectations? If anything, the silence has probably been beneficial.
― Frederik B, Saturday, 9 November 2019 19:52 (four years ago) link
Compare to how many 'Why is he doing so bad?' pieces that has been written about Biden while he is unfortunately still pretty comfortably in first.
― Frederik B, Saturday, 9 November 2019 19:57 (four years ago) link
compared to expectations
expectations, or rather fears, are what i mean tho: don't think there were many at this point in the 2016 cycle, so nobody had to be quarantined
the silence has probably been beneficial
i doubt it does all that much one way or the other, but as a berniebro i do envy the louder scorn warren is presently receiving from the most despised people alive. can't hurt.

i don’t like how the ppl who run Bernie’s twitter account (well one of them, you know the one) ventriloquise annoying twitter voice onto him. it’s like they totally don’t ‘get’ his voice /tone
― flopson, Saturday, 9 November 2019 20:18 (four years ago) link
i think the wider + lefter field is making bernie have to up the stakes and radicalize more to stay differentiated, whereas HRC allowed him to be more moderate. i don’t think he’ll win the primary bc I don’t see his numbers growing much after all the other candidates drop out and their voters split mostly for liz or biden. i could be wrong
― flopson, Saturday, 9 November 2019 20:21 (four years ago) link
If Warren weren't in the race, he'd be the clear people-under-thirty favorite or whatever alternate to the Biden/South Bend mayor Moderate Person we name.

He refused to take the bait in this interview re: having a "rivalry" with Elizabeth Warren:https://theintercept.com/2019/11/07/deconstructed-the-bernie-sanders-interview/
So my point is, look, I was asked this question by ABC, and that’s the answer I gave and I think it’s the right answer. Senator Warren is trying to figure out a way to fund this. I am trying to figure out a way to fund it. Most importantly, what we both understand that Medicare for All will save the average American substantial sums of money in their healthcare costs.
Elizabeth Warren is somebody that I have worked with for many, many years. Worked with her before she was a United States senator. So obviously, if I am fortunate enough to become the Democratic nominee and president of the United States, I would look absolutely, to Elizabeth Warren as somebody who would play a very, very important role in everything that we’re doing.

more Sanders erasure, but tbh I'm wondering how much it even hurts him

It doesn't hurt him, he thrives on manufactured outrage. And it's not really as if his campaign is going that well, so he wouldn't get that much out of it if they took him serious.
― Frederik B, Thursday, 5 December 2019 15:09 (four years ago) link
i think we're gonna look back on the malign neglect with fondness after he wins a few primaries, when the other candidates' (and media outlets') totally legitimate concerns over anti-israel racist misogynist berniebros dominate the narrative.

he may very well be intentionally neglected by the mainstream media for nefarious reasons but the complaints about it come off as petty + tedious

is it really that weird? I'm not even sure most people are "complaining" as much as observing/documenting a pretty clear and expected bias. to my knowledge people aren't out there lobbying MSNBC to cover him fairly or whatever, they know the score

It's not 'weird as fuck' to focus a primary story on the two front runners. It's myopic, but it's absolutely explainable.
