3. I enjoy primary season.

I find it entertaining. When primary season is done, it's done. And then I will go back to and continue to fight for democratic/progressive/liberal causes.

Doesn't sound very "democratic" to me.

Sounds more authoritarian.

8. On the 16th, we're all supposed to be on the same page.

When were all Democrats on the same page? Isn't the party supposed to be a big tent?
No dissent, no criticism, no other ideas--what's that remind me of?
I've voted Democratic since McCarthy. I can barely recognize our party anymore.

If all the Sanders supporters leave,

"Republican Lite Underground".

10. If you think Hillary or her supporters are anything like republicans,

you simply haven't been paying attention. We are NOTHING like the GOP. Hillary is despised by the republican party, in case you haven't noticed (and apparently you haven't noticed very much).

14. A lot of the Republicans she so greatly resembles would be hated by today's GOP, too.

16. Since the neoconservatives were a minority in the GOP this primary season,

you may be right. So now the neoconservative majority is in the "Democratic" party, who are nominating a neoconservative candidate, whom the godfather of neoconservatism, Robert Kagan, has endorsed.

So maybe it should now be called 'Neoconservative Underground'.

I've paid plenty of attention, thank you. If you think Hillary Clinton is any more progressive than Richard Nixon, it's YOU who haven't done your homework.

That's ok, it seems that most of her supporters haven't.

But since he won't be the "protected one", those anti-Bernie posts will be tolerated.

15. Will attacks on Bernie also be prohibited

Because I have seen at least as many of them as attacks on Hillary in the past 24 hours.
