fart every time you leave your desk.

As a millennial myself, yeah. You’re not wrong. Most of the Berners on my facebook feed are exhausting and assume that everyone should be bending over backward to cater to them because “we are the future” which is technically true but not a super convincing argument, especially when so many of us have no fucking idea

Most Bernie voters get their information from The Daily Show, have never contributed to the world, and think if they stand there and hate life long enough someone will come and make it better for them.

There are reasons for those rules. Democrats in some states want to ensure that democrats, and democrats only, pick their nominee, so the nominee represents Democratic values. They don’t want last minute registration changes because that could allow Republicans to switch last minute and “pick their opponent”

No no no no no please it’s not all the Millennials please don’t put that on us it’s not fair! My friends are Hillary supporters. I unfortunately know some Bernie Bros but they’re idiots and just white dudes who haven’t gotten their way. Promise promise we have nothing to do with this.

These folks had until the DAY BEFORE the Nevada convention to ensure they were registered as Democrats. Sorry, this argument absolutely does not wash when it comes to this particular event.

You dealing with a bunch of people who were taught a song in kindergarten and they took it to heart: “I Am Special".

Like they are stomping their feet and saying “it’s not fair” and then telling the olds that we need to wake up and see how corrupt things are. Uh, yes. Some of us have been active for DECADES. It makes me feel like an old person shouting at kids to get off my lawn.

What bugs me the most is that the people complaining about this are mad that THEY were affected by their own ignorance/laziness on the political process in their district. Meanwhile, there are people who are actively having their votes suppressed and these folks don’t give two shits about it.

Yes, exactly. Especially when they then try to lecture you about corruption. It is a good question though. These people are newly politicized, generally. So it comes with a level of really naïve enthusiasm. I think a lot of it will wear off by the general. But I wonder, is this because of the Internet? I mean, when I

“He’s a flawed egotistical mainstream politician. I voted for him”

God, seriously. My friends are fellow 30-somethings who have never fucking voted and now suddenly are pissed about bureaucracy being bureaucracy. Shit, I had my political awakening freshman year of high school with the Bush/Gore election. How are these adults who grew up during 9/11, the Bush years, and the Obama

There is a small part of me that wants to hope Hillary will win Kentucky, since Bill won the state twice. But I seriously do not recognize this state anymore after the last couple of years. I was pleased to see how close the race was, thinking maybe some progressive pockets voted for Bernie. Then I saw that he won

Ugh. Same. I initially tried to point out to the Bernie zealots when they were posting memes that weren’t factual, but had to give up. Now they’ve started posting insane right-wing anti-Hillary garbage and are constantly saying things like, “huh, that post I made of Hillary got deleted for some reason. Must be a

It can’t be a millenial thing because it’s not just them. The two people I’ve mentioned in my comments are 35 and 44. So I don’t think it’s an age thing.

I'm starting to wonder if it really is about Millennials thinking everything is about them and having no experience with long-term problems - just assuming they are entitled to instant gratification. Like they are stomping their feet and saying "it's not fair" and then telling the olds that we need to wake up and see

Individual states run their own primaries. There is no overall national level Democratic primary. If you don’t like the rules of your state’s primary then you need to go to chair of your state’s Democratic party. I agree that some of the deadlines were ridiculously early, but there was no national conspiracy to

The lack of organizing has been the death of the Sanders campaign. They put all their money into huge rallies, TV ads, and internet presence. They trained no one. His supporters do not understand the process, so they’re all ready to believe whatever ridiculous conspiracy theory or imaginary delegate math scenarios

Thank you. And they blame the Clinton people for not following the rules?

Also, Clinton won the NV primary election. Nothing was being stolen from these people. Blame the Sanders ground game for not having its delegates be prepared and follow the rules.
