In this thread: people mistaking NRE for "true love"
Love is as much a time based thing as it is work/romance/sex/chemical.
It involves seeing the other person at their weakest and being there to help them, and vice versa. It involves seeing them mistreat you, but you know why because you know them and their triggers and forgiving them. (That last bit can be confused with forgiving abusers, which is not the same. If someone physically hurts you, it isn't love, and contrition is a required step.)
It involves giving them freedom to make mistakes and hurting themselves and being there to help them up.
It is so much more that delineating it down to ' I must love them cause I'm not sexually attracted to anyone else right now' is a cheap and sad way of describing love.
First step is not putting your hope that the people who got you into this mess who have every reason to not try and get you out this mess, can and will fix it.
Part of the purpose of consequences is to stop the damage.
Obama's whole "Lets not look backward" schtick is what allowed every single person responsible for the Iraq war and 2008 financial crisis, and the 2010 foreclosure-fraud crisis to maintain their positions of power.
Wikileaks absolutely proved Donna Brazile funneled debate questions to Clinton.
Trump didn't tell me anything, in that I understand how DKIM works. Evidently you don't, so you want to try and pretend that the emails were faked or modified. That's not how encryption works, though.
The DNC literally admitted to braking it own rules and cheating for Hillary in court.
Your bullshit here that Bernie couldn't win the primary so he wouldn't win the general is post-hoc rationalization of the DNC being an undemocratic institution and justifying their theft of the party.
Without addressing that theft, no primary in the world will fix this.
