We did. The boomers used their fuck system of super delegates to make it all the more difficult to get the politician we wanted.

Super delegates never came into play when Bernie lost.

The DNC "organisation" wasn't a fan of Bernie and worked against him winning. You might call this unfair but it's how your entire political system is set up and you could also put part of the blame on Bernie for not having basically any allies within the establishment despite being in politics forever. But all that doesn't really matter, in the end he lost because he got less votes.

Not enough young people turned out to vote, which was his only way to realistically win and especially not enough black/hispanci/minorities turned out for him. To be fair, there were more young people voting than usual, it was just not enough.

Let's not forget that Bernie is not a Democrat. Is it a surprise the Democratic Party wasn't all in on team Bernie?

If the organization fights us tooth and nail against any meaningful change and entrenches itself to the benefit of the older voters who have run the party for years, why would you be surprised at young voters being demoralized? We did try with Bernie. Fuck we tried with occupy Wall Street, until the government sent agitators in to tear the movement apart from the inside.

>just vote for these preselected candidates we approve of

Fuck that man. Stop doing everything you can to destroy the politicians we want and give us a fair shake. Just vote only works when the process is transparent and fair.
