yeeeep. It’s honestly very reminiscent of trying to punish my parents for things as a teen by torpedoing things in my own life. So many Bern-er posts were floating around saying something to the effect of

the exasperating part is that no matter how many times I point out that it’s blatant data manipulation, all the B r o s are smugly leaving that link everywhere saying “see? I told ya. Hard data” :(

this is overstating things in my opinion. Young, alienated people COULD be dangerous, sure. But what *are* you going to do when you have few assets and minimal income? It’s all hot air.

the data doesn’t make sense if you actually look at it, which is why data should be handled by professionals who are trained in approaching it from a non-biased perspective, and not students gunning for Bernie.

too true - I think a lot about how social media almost seems to have walked communication skills backward? I know talking about the social bubble is nothing new, but, yeah.

I read that article and rolled my eyes. Bernie followers love phrases like “warn of a massive exodus” the same way they warned about a massive voting revolution that would put Bernie in power.

“Pearl clutching liberals” you use the rhetoric of Trump’s camp .....*while* denying there’s overlap between the two communication styles? k

Ah yes - thank you for this.

are you actually sorry? Because this is exactly the sort of Bern-bro anecdotal response I just talked about. Have you seriously never heard someone say something like “human life is valuable”?

Bernie’s supporters always seem to approach his candidacy as if it’s an inherent reality that young people are better, or more worthy, or more valuable. Votes, in the end, are valuable, and all people are valuable, as everyone’s effort to shelter and protect the elderly happens now. WHY does Biden need to win over…

Paraphrasing

too bad u can't vote here SUCKA

Bernie followers: we love him bc he has a consistent record

I started reading this not realizing it was Bernie, so I guess of course he’s going to leave out the skid marks on his own track record lol...

even as a 30 year old millennial, this is exactly my issue with a lot of them.

You do realize Bernie’s record with abortion is hardly stellar? He has the questionable distinction of being one of the few democrats that would ever endorse a pro-life candidate. Because he’s open to both sides. Coooool thanks

Bernie flip-flopped like a fish on gun rights, and that was recently - at least the other candidates did most of their flopping decades ago. But because it’s Bernie, it’s ok to change his position for the sake of getting elected.

Ha, no - I meant Hillary, the original corporate shill to Bernie’s sainthood. 

I feel like everyone is attempting to re-write history in an attempt to prompt Bernie up. They both have had some questionable run-ins with women’s rights (Bernie calling Planned Parenthood “the establishment” for not supporting his campaign at a time when the organization is constantly under assault) - but they also…

tell that to Pence.
