For those who decided to attack me for asking a question about Sanders supporters who say they would vote for Trump over any other leading Dem candidate...1) If the poll I cited was a bogus poll, all you had to do was say that and show why. I hope you're right...

2/ No need to get pissy or angry. Just say, "hey Tim, no worries, thats a bullshit poll...we aren't really gonna do that...no one is that stupid..." But the fact that so many of y'all got defensive & thought it best to explain why the other Dems are so evil and the party evil...

3/ ...makes me wonder whether the poll is bogus after all. I mean, it's one thing to favor Sanders (totally cool, advocate for your person, I respect that), and another to go in so hard on everyone else that u reinforce the notion that it has to be Bernie or Bust, in which case..

4/...u really are saying u would rather have Trump for 4 more years than any of the others, even including Warren whose views are relatively close to Bernie's. Anyone who would vote for Trump over any of the others, or who thinks there's no diff, or Trump better, is an asshole..

5/ ..and y'all can blow up mentions til your fingers bleed if u like...But any1 who would do that or thinks that way is the enemy of everything worth fighting for. You are not progressive. You're a nihilist. And again, if this person is a myth, don't get defensive. Just walk away

6/ It's also hilarious that I've lost 100 followers since critiquing those Sanders supporters. So if someone questions "the revolution," some folk can't even follow anymore? I bet they would keep following an overt racist who nonetheless liked Bernie though, bc...priorities!

7/...and no, there were no other posts in that time frame that could have explained that loss of 100 people...almost assuredly a response to the Bernie thread, which was mostly a series of questions about the poll I was citing and what it means; not even an attack...
