(1,901 posts)the team mentality that the BSers were working with. I think it's particularly brave of you and the rational and sane Bernie Supporters to have taken a stand against such vile statements. I have watched what anyone who spoke out against some of these comments go through when you do.
It was the team sports mentality and the sheer amount of hate that was being whipped up here in what was converted into a Bernie echo chamber where simply cheering on Bernie (ostensibly) gave one immunity and credibility for whatever one wished to say.
A lot of people are apparently upset about not being able to do whatever they wish on this site, with the assurance that they would not be held accountable do to their "side" silencing the opposition.
Thank you for speaking out and maintaining the sanity and rationality that I had once thought was common on the left. We have more in common than not and we're all in this together in November, no matter who wins, let's not forget that when the agitators, both the earnest ones carried away by passion and emotion, as well as the deliberate provocateurs intent on mischief, cause disruption.
