(42,652 posts)In any given situation. He fought for civil rights, yet seems to be completely blind to how inherently racist and sexist governments formed the very economic system flaws he is fighting against.
So he says this shit. It pisses me off--because by now he should know better--his words were easily manipulated by Trump--to the point a few of his more, I don't know, unstable is the best word I can think of right now, followers thought it was a fabulous idea to vote for Trump.
He fanned the sparks of Hillary hate quite deftly, he sought to end the Democratic Party as we know it--even has an alternative--when he knows the process of change wouldn't have happened in any reasonable time frame without Democrats, and within the system he hates. Though his revolution never showed up at the polls, Many of his people think that Hillary stole the primary. They think Bernie would have easily beat Trump. They think Bernie would have pushed his ideas through a Republican congress.
Then crap like this. Why, Bernie, Why?
