Lets Discuss What went wrong with Bernie Sanders' campaign ?
- Thread starter Uno
- Start date
That's all I'm saying
They did vote. Online doesn’t reflect on the ground support. This idea of Sanders supporters who are “all talk” online but don’t vote is a low information smear that fits into “Bernie Bro” narratives and really began when people started questioning DNC leadership’s behavior in 2016. The people who didn’t vote aren’t the ones online tweeting for Bernie. I don’t know why people want to have the same conversation 1000000x. Sanders support is overrepresented online - just like Donald Trump’s.

They did it last time to what are you talking about?the irony of the biggest thing bernie's campaign learned from last time was to endorse the person who beat you earlier
I guess Warren doesn't want to get burned two elections in a row and is holding off.
i'll assume you skipped the vital part of my statement that said earlierThey did it last time to what are you talking about?

so that you could talk about warren
Fam, you’re not a HL regular so you’re unintentionally rehashing topics that have been done ad nauseum. It has happened every election for the past decade. It’s a smear because the data doesn’t support it. Sanders supporters who are tweeting online are not the average voter. So you’re basically saying his supporters are all talk when the ones talking the most are activists and out there. They are in no way reflective of his average voter and they are not why he lost. I don’t expect you to be privy to this. Posts like yours fueled the whole Bernie or Bust thing that everyone knows isn’t real and a smear. Sherrod Brown said as much in last week. I’m not defending those people online so you don’t have to tell me you like Bernie bro(see what I did there)...I’m asking for a moratorium on acting like internet people airing out their grievances and being disappointed warrants a deep dive. It seems like the candidates themselves are trying unity but there’s a certain addiction to rehashing shyt.
