Still mindboggling we live in a democracy and people still don't understand how a democracy works, such as Arrow's Theorem that shows the impossibility of determining a winner when there's multiple candidates, none of whom gets over 50%.
Also mindboggling we live in a democracy where people's opinions change moment to moment as results are still being reported. Counts from last night at 7pm are different today at noon, which is still only 71% reporting.
So now with the latest count, Buttigieg also has more popular votes than Sanders, although only the same number of delegates, so now there's no reason for Bernie supporters to be outraged.

Biden supporters need to be outraged, because they get 0 delegates despite 15% of vote.
We don't have a firm belief in principle, outraged at the failure of democracy when those principles are violated.

We have instead firm support for a candidate, outraged at any perceived slight to our candidate, which we pretend is a violation of some nebulous principle.
