IGNORANT Bernie Bros must END their name calling!!! - Third-Way Manny [View all]


I was perusing the Boston Globe this morning, and THE TRUTH hit me square in the head:
College students backing Clinton are frustrated with ‘Bernie Bros’

Well, of course they're frustrated! Katie Kamins, a whip-smart sophomore at George Washington University, tells of getting "a lot of negative feedback" from roving packs of crazed Bernie Bros. Even more...

“It’s frustrating from my perspective that he’s getting so much support when this is her time,” Kamins said. “I feel like there’s a lot of ignorance among college students in regards to their support for Bernie.” Yes, Ms. Kamins, it's her time, but instead of accepting the inevitable, those the ignorant Bernie Bros just make empty proclamations about "choosing the Party's candidate through a voting process". LOL! I'll bet the poopyheads even engage in name-calling!
Interestingly, a number of other articles about the Bernie Bro plague appeared at the same time, e.g.,

Bernie Sanders supporters get a bad reputation online
http://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-35422316

The bros who love Bernie Sanders have become a sexist mob
http://mashable.com/2016/01/29/bernie-sanders-berniebros/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial#gZ01sm3NImqT

Since we know that these pieces showing up at the same time can't possibly be a coordinated hit against Team Commie, the inescapable conclusion is that everyone's finally had enough of Bernie's campaign being little more than a seething mass of male hatred against a STRONG WOMAN! And if they haven't had enough, we'll try this meme again in another week or two - eventually it will work.

Why post it? Because his writing is often thought provoking and insightful. That's why. Bubzer Jan 2016 #23
The mere fact that some thought of him as "one of the most appreciated writers here" Blue_Tires Jan 2016 #31
