Let's talk about how a certain Senator's, who is grasping at relevance, fanboys react to a Black woman pointing out she has the receipts.

Because they put her in danger today.

Senator Sanders has long been known to have not simply rabid fans but violent ones.
From an attack on Representative Jim McDermott for the mere fact he supported Clinton over Sanders: q13fox-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/q13fox.com…

To the violence exhibited at the Nevada caucuses including the #chairgate but more the violent threats against NV Dem chairwoman: thehill-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/thehill.co…

To one of his fans shooting up a baseball game: www-nytimes-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.nytime…

To the superdelegate list that was passed around for "persuasion" reasons. npr.org/2016/04/09/473…

To countless attacks on non-supporters on social media and other spaces in a weird attempt to either force a person to vote for him under duress or scare them from voting at all.
In fact, it has been so bad, it's now a trope. "RIP your mentions"

During all this, a funny, smart, talented Black woman I am lucky to call a friend: @Wonderbitch81 has been pointing out she doesn't like Sanders. She has ample receipts and when she said she would light him up with those receipts, they called the cops on her.

They did this knowing full well that puts her in danger. While the Capital police are not that trigger happy, they do kill: bbc.com/news/av/world-…

I have been lighting up the receipts on Sanders stans this thread. But I won't face anything close to the vitriol she does on a daily basis. And I think we all know why.

I've written threads that expose his terrible record of being bought by the gun industry. His environmental racism, his sexism, and his 30 years of doing nothing. And I am vocal in my opposition. Yet left pretty much alone.

@Wonderbitch81 didn't deserve this. She can dislike someone. She can talk about that dislike. She shouldn't be threatened for doing so. But she's Black. And unapologetic for her feelings. And so here we are. With Sanders stans repeating the violence.

PS: Sanders is a creepy anti-American pro-Russian fuck but who needed to retire 10 years ago so Vermont could have someone worthy as their senator. One who doesn't act like an entitled asshole for something he hasn't earned.
