Eh... I’m willing to bet that Biden’s team is confident he leads by significant margins in states that aren’t disproportionately white.

Iowa and NH are disproportionately good for Warren/Sanders and bad for Biden, while I’d prefer Warren to Biden it’s more than a bit fucked up that two of the whitest states in America have such an outsized impact on the race, especially considering that diminished turnout from African American voters was such a

Fuck you for parroting Republican talling points. 

DOMA is and was fucked up but DADT was at the time a step forward from exisiting military policy. 

Eh... Iowa (and NH) overrepresent Warren’s support base and underplay Biden’s- and I say that as someone who would greatly prefer Warren to Uncle Joe.

And Bernie is what Kucinich 2.0 or McGovern 3.0?

“But Sanders and his surrogates did highlight one key aspect of his candidacy that does make him stand out from pretty much everyone else: an acknowledgment that the country’s institutions are currently far too conservative to try to ram programs like Medicare for All through.”

Not a fair comparison- too many people on both sides were at least initially supportive of regime change in Iraq to impeach over it- from consercative Dems to moderates to even liberals; hell even Bernie supported regime change while voting against authorization. They don't want to enable their own accountability. 

This is a bit different, Rudy’s basically confirming an impeachable offense was committed while in office (the Ukrainian readout of Pence and Trump communications appears to do much the same)

Wasn’t that largely because Libby was wrong(and arguably a bit racist or at least patronizing) then tried to dodge the issue by claiming criticsm was sexist?

Read the post, that is in no way how the process worked 

Wow you must not have been online during the 2016 primary when states with racially diverse populations voted

Really they sure seemed to think he was entitled to the WFP endorsement 

Actually, don't the changes give more power to individual members than they did in 2016?

So... are Sanders caucus wins in 2016 also illegitimate? Because this seems to have used a similar process- local members elect delegates to state, state to national, etc

This. The Sirota hire in particular is a flashing red sign

Going straight to "what if your daughter was raped" is a pretty glaring warning sign from a poster. 

It's not exactly the same but I'll fully admit that I've been pleasantly surprised by Andrew Yang the candidate vs. the image I'd had of the man based on his 4 Chan/Reddit Bro supporters

No... But so, many of these people said they opposed Hillary solely due to ideology and ‘would totally vote for a woman, if say Warren ran in 2020", surely they weren’t lying

I mean, there were issues with that in 2016 as well pre-Trump too; 95%+ of Sanders supporters are great, there’s just this tiny that basically represent the flipside of Ron Paul cadres (with some weird overlap) - - a phenomenon, that as you said is even more prevelant in the MAGA crowd.
