if economic pain and anxiety were the key to voting for Trump, black and brown folks would have lined up down the street to vote for him bc for most POC, economic anxiety is called Monday. Whites voted for him NOT bc of pain but pain relative to the success we feel entitled to...

but Bernie doesn't want to address that entitlement mentality among whites, even the working class, and how it gets exploited by the "Millionehhhhs and Bilyanehhhhs" bc saying anything suggestive that the white worker isn't salt of the earth and innocent is too much for him...

oh I know, it's deceptively edited bc its the NYT and they're a bunch of capitalists conspiring against Bernie bc he's "bringing the revolution, angle bargle, blah blah blah, up against the wall MF," something or other...look, he says this same shit about race/class all the time

it's his stock narrative: Trump voters were worried about jobs and income, and are dying deaths of despair bc of economics, etc. (wrong), and can be captured with a class narrative (wrong) and race/gender are "identity politics" but class isn't (wrong)...

this nonsense is also why white marxists think "if you just break capitalism racism will go away..." bullshit. There are other things that are in play, other than pure economic competition. After hundreds of years of white supremacy, the class system is not all that matters here

And the "deaths of despair" stuff he mentions, which is about excess white mortality, is not bc whites are uniquely hurting in America but bc they are hurting relative to our expectations (expectations driven upward by white privilege)...that is something he doesn't get either
