look i like bernie sanders as much as the next guy but i’m starting to see posts calling him a “precious cinnamon roll who needs to be protected at all costs” and frankly i’m concerned

this is a good summary of tumblr’s general views of politics in general. So many people on here assume that because a politician, or anyone for that matter, is “good” at first they are then incapable of doing wrong in the future. And vice versa. Its dangerous to assume that good is always good and bad is always bad. It’s all subjective, we can never truly determine what will or won’t happen in politics, who will or won’t honor their promises. Lack of criticism is exactly how dangerous people get into power, and whilst i’m not suggesting Sanders is some kind of cruel dictator, we should take all his promises with a pinch of salt. I for one won’t be praising him until results are delivered.
