2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Hey Democrats, Bernie isn't the enemy, why not save the smears and attacks for the REAL Enemy? [View all]Warren DeMontague
(80,708 posts)And one of her big selling points is supposed to be her ability to eat up political attacks for breakfast.
While some of the criticism I've seen on DU of HRC is unfair, certainly things like her IWR vote or other aspects of her record are, to my mind, fair game and relevant and certainly not "bashing".
But none of that comes close to the low-valence, moronic neverending stream of "Sanders supporters suck hurr durr" which pretty much constitute a huge chunk of the "argument" such as it is, coming from the Hill Folk here in GD: P. Not even "bashing" the candidate (although he too appears to be widely and incoherently loathed) himself, more just throwing poop at his supporters like a pack of howling monkeys, really as far as I can tell for the sole purpose of pissing people off and then running back to the clubhouse to tee-hee tee-hee into little jelly smeared fingers.
If I had ten bucks for every stupid thread ostensibly not about Bernie Sanders but the "problematic" aspects of his alleged supporters, I'd have a big ol wheelbarrow full of cash.
It's fucking lame, is what it is.
