>"I think ultimate success is regime change ... the goal is quite simply to break the back of this totalitarian mercantilist economic society."

The really funny thing is that Bernie Sanders' supporters have the exact same goal in mind.

Why would that be funny? America broke the Soviet Union with economic power. A lot of people still remember this.

I'd like to see the Chinese equivalent of the Berlin Wall falling.

I think it's funny because the entrenched establishment politicians like Steve Bannon are also the ones most opposed to Sanders and his allies.

It's not a surprise that a decent number of Bernie voters voted for Trump instead of Hillary. At least I saw a lot of highly upvoted comments on Reddit from people saying they were going to do that after Bernie lost.
