As of the writing of this blog, Bernie Sanders has dropped out of the race to become the Democratic presidential nominee; a move that had been inevitable for over a month. Once Joe Biden successfully consolidated power amongst the democratic elite and older voters more interested in the return of “order” and a mystical sense of normalcy, the progressive arm of the base and leftist Sanders supporters began to feel that impending sense of doom known as being “put in your place” by the power structure. Some will tell you that’s not what this is though—instead claiming that Sanders’ campaign was full of bad actors, pie-in-the-sky idealism, and that Sanders was just another old white man full of old white male rhetoric.
