Although I think the sycophancy displayed by some on their #MyBernieStory tweets is weird, I don't get the value of the vitriol against them either. Fact is, this in-fighting will destroy us if we let it. I'm not a Bernie fan, personally, even tho I support most of his ideas..
2/ But I'll sure as shit vote for him to end Trump & Trumpism if it comes to that, and so should anyone else who calls themselves progressive... just as his supporters should vote for some other Dem if Bernie doesn't get the nomination...there's too much at stake...
3/ Just one thing I'd ask of those who support him: don't be silly & say things like 'w/Bernie we get Medicare for all!' No u don't unless you elect equally prog folk to the Senate. Good luck w/that...I want M4A too but I know how this system works, so be prepared for compromise
4/ Otherwise, everyone fight for who you believe in...because ALL of their ideas are better than this monstrosity we have right now. But at the end of the day, any kind of "all I want or nothing" bullshit needs to be put aside, no matter who the nom is...
5/ No BS about how so & so is "too far left" or "not left enough," or "a corporate shill," or insufficiently intersectional in their analysis...we are confronting a white nationalist & literal fascist so...while the house is burning, let's not argue over landscaping the yard, k?
