Bernie is so toxic, and his fans love him so much for it, his surrogates think they can be just as toxic. It’s how you end up with Bill DeBlasio saying racist things on MSNBC right now and destroying his own career while trying to explain why Bernie isn’t getting the black vote.
Bernie has a bunch of zombies worshipping him, so people like DiBlasio think they can latch onto him and use his cult as a shortcut to advance their own careers and interests. But it always backfires on them. Everyone who latches onto Bernie ends up ruining themselves.
Bernie attracts the very worst of advisers and surrogates. He’s an incompetent stooge and a dirty campaigner, so he doesn’t care if his surrogates are just as incompetent and dirty. He’s a narcissist, so he only cares that they kiss his ass while they’re milking his base.
What Bernie’s hangers-on don’t get if that all Bernie has is his cult. So he can be a toxic asshole, and he faces no consequences, and his cult keeps worshipping him. But his hangers-on are out there trying to advance real careers, and acting like an asshole does them in.
Bernie and his movement have taken all the bottom feeding garbage on the left and pushed them all into the spotlight, where they melt.
Just like Trump and his movement have taken all the bottom feeding garbage on the right and pushed them all into the spotlight, where they melt.

If you’re one of these people replying with “I don’t like Bernie either but stop criticizing him” – just don’t. I’ll block you. This toxic asshole is destroying the left from within, and you want to lecture me for calling him out? Bite me. People like you are the whole problem.
