This article isn’t as fascinating as watching posts ‘defending and pretending’ about it from Bernie supporters on facebook. The absolutely visceral and hating rants are a jambalaya of obnoxiousness. There’s the spite, the persecution complex, the underlying belief that anyone else is evil outside of Bernie. Long story short, Bernie supporters and their comments on Hillary are why I fucking loathe progressives. They are the most close-minded, hateful, paranoid, and bigoted people ever and their affection for outrageous conspiracy theory doesn’t make them any appealing.
It’s like they think Hillary is the opponent, and not the GOP. It reminds me of how much I hated Obama’s ridiculously smalled-minded, tunnel-vision, impractical, holier-than-thou, and cognitively challenged supporters in ’08. Either group provides a damn good reason to block out anything their candidate is saying.
The prejudice against the mainstream isn’t nearly as striking as the tacit misogyny that none of them seem to notice they are all to willing to employ in their nasty put downs. If the best argument you have is to be snide and hostile to the other side, well you don’t have anything worthy of being supported in the first place.
It’s clear none of the obnoxious hipsters will be around in the General, it’d be nice if their snobby, bigoted asses went home, sat down, and shut the fuck up already, sooner than later.
