Bernie Sanders launched the next round of his “fighting oligarchy” tour Saturday in Los Angeles, where he and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York) drew thousands of people to a park across from City Hall as they advanced their effort to build a “working class movement.”

Note the scare quotes around “working class.”
Hey Bennett, here’s a wild idea — how about Democrats at least pretend to adopt a popular platform.
I wish establishment democrats spent one tenth the energy they use fighting their own progressives on republicans.
Get ready to pivot to different leftists when he just tells us to vote for Hillary again.
Neoliberalism will not save us from their rich doners
Please, Bernie, don’t fly anywhere. Rent a bus, or better yet, just drive yourself.
It was kind of weird that they had someone on stage singing who thinks they are a 12year old German boy whose parents were Holocaust survivors.
I’m gonna need a bit more context here lol
Love the message and I get that he’s trying to shift the popular view and this isn’t a bad place to do it
But Coachella isn’t exactly filled with your average “working class” folks. Tickets start at $600 per person.
I think it’s pretty important to get this message to people who bought $600 tickets too. Those people likely had to work to pay for those tickets and cannot survive without working. That meets my definition of working class just fine. We need to stop cutting ourselves into smaller and smaller pieces.
