In today’s hyped up, hurly-burly BS pace of mass media there are precious few opportunities to see a calm, detailed discussion with a candidate, but his hour-plus interview of Bernie Sanders by Joe Rogan is unique. The interview was done on the Joe Rogan Experience August 6, 2019. This is a great opportunity to hear Bernie’s thoughts, concerns and proposals.
The comment below was one of the online reactions to the interview. The highlighted sentence is spot-on. No doubt, the owners of the corporate media understand the point, but the friction of right-left divide is to churn ratings and divert people from understanding that the source of their pain is not from their neighbor to the right or left, but from those at the top.
“In all my adult life I have never contributed money to a campaign. I am just a poor white dude from Arizona, and I thought that my contribution would not matter one little bit to getting anything done. Then in 2016 something happened……Bernie happened! For the first time here in 2020 I felt that my contribution would go to someone that would make a difference in my life and in the life of my neighbors. I think that the Mainstream Media is not aware that in this country the real divide is between the top and the bottom and not between the right and the left. Bernie gets that fact that is why he got my money and my vote.” — Hourglass
