Is it me or have HRC fans gotten more shrill, snarky, arrogant, haughty, aggressive

[Feeling the Bern]

and down right mean spirited as this election season continues?

It seems to me they are bringing back PUMA they threatened in 2008, only now they are telling Bernie supporters to go away because they don't need us. And instead of building bridges, they insult people who question the queen!

Nothing they are doing makes me want to vote for her. And nothing she has said has earned her my vote.

[oldandhappy]

1. yep unity!

[TM99]

2. It is just you.

They have always been this way!

[yourpaljoey]

4. I think I must agree

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

29. I agree with your agreement.

[Jennylynn]

3. Not going anywhere near them right now.

Maybe later or tomorrow. Or not.

[CoffeeCat]

5. Based on how they're acting, I'm assuming that

PUMA stands for Pole Up My Arse.

That's gotta be it, right? They seem very moody. Not a fun kind of people.

[Feeling the Bern]

6. Republicans tend to be moody. Yes, I am quoting Mike Malloy when he says that Clinton

was the best Republican president we've had since Eisenhower. HRC will be no different.

[Bernin4U]

25. Cool. Haven't heard Malloy for quite some time.

Maybe about time to track him down.

[malokvale77]

15. Ooo...

Love that acronym.

[delrem]

7. Who cares about them?

She hired David Brock to run her internet outreach PAC before her campaign even officially started, and it's been dirty as dirty can be from the moment Sanders announced. She's run the most despicable campaign I've ever seen, and that includes Trump's, tho' Trump is learning.

How can anyone forget that her campaign put out the line that "Berniebros" are racist, misogynist, sexist, old white men?
It's still going on, the same despicable fuckers who've been all over DU promoting that line were unleashed by a blanket amnesty given by one of Brock's tools.

No, they aren't getting worse, that isn't possible. But Brock hired a shitload of new P2Pers and they got a bulk deal from the DU admin, so it's the same but thicker.

Except for this sub-forum, this place is a sewer and I can hardly bear to open it to read it anymore.

[Feeling the Bern]

8. ^^^^^^^ this

[FlatBaroque]

9. The more inevitable Her becomes, the greater the fury of their foamy mouthed attacks

Keep your eyes on the prize. I trust Bernie to lead a great strategy in Philadelphia.

[Baobab]

12. The Dem establishment doesnt have a Plan B in their vocabulary

unless that B is for Biden.

Which means they are no longer democratic. We should call the Hillarians the Oligarchic Party.

[leftcoastmountains]

10. I've only read a few of their posts.

I really don't see any reason to read any more. So I don't know
if they are worse now but they certainly are pretty awful. Ew!

[KCDem]

11. Downright nasty

How many "Bernie needs to drop out nooooowwww!!!11" posts have I seen in the past 10 minutes? Sheesh.

[LongTomH]

13. Be patient! That just means they're getting nervous!

[hopemountain]

14. oh, like rachel?

she tried to rationalize the shrewd shenanigans of the billary campaign such as the block out bernie tactics and disenfranchising voters.

they assume we are soooo stupid.

[Feeling the Bern]

16. Rachel lost all my respect being an HRC cheerleader this primary cycle.

[LovingA2andMI]

19. Rachel Who?

Don't Watch That Channel or That Woman...

[hopemountain]

20. yes. i end up adding $5 to

my monthly donation to sanders every time she disrespects him.

[Plucketeer]

27. You know Rachel Who

And she's gotta be sittin' pretty with whatever the new drivers at MSNBC are payin' her to forget her progressive beginnings. Big money corrupts, BIG time. Hell, lookit Howard Dean of late. He finally realized that he LOVED the corporate Kool-ade.

[LovingA2andMI]

30. Fair Point....

Rachel Maddow and Howard Dean sold their sold for the highest dollar. Hope they can look at themselves in the mirror and see a reflection, as a result.

[RussBLib]

17. many, but certainly not all, Hillary supporters

feel the same way about Sanders' supporters

what a crazy fucking political season

[Feeling the Bern]

18. I've been accused of it simply by disagreeing, bringing up her past and the things she has

said, done and is on the record for. . .you know, her record.

I'm a mean spirited, angry, sexist, typical "Bernie Bro" that isn't a real Democrat and should go back to the Republicans where I believe, since Republicans love Bernie because he supports the NRA.

[NV Whino]

21. It's hard to imagine they could go lower

But they've managed it.

[mhatrw]

22. sorest "winners" ever nt

[corbettkroehler]

23. It Ain't You

I was banned from the HRC group a couple of months ago for making an innocent (and factual) statement about Sanders' margin of victory in multiple states.

Dissent will not be tolerated.

[Feeling the Bern]

24. Dissent = disloyalty.

Very Republican attitude.

[Joob]

26. Yeah they are. In their defense, must be hard work defending Hillary's corruption all day.

They may be tired of the constant scandals and corruption they have to defend and ignore at the same time!! That's a lot of work! Bound to make them cranky.

[Duckhunter935]

28. Yes, ever since Skinner allowed hides

without any consequences and allowed the ones on vacation back. The vacations at least kept the vitriol down. I guess he decided too many of her supporters were on bacation for insults.

Funny him and Earlg stated many times the jury system was working fine and there was no evidence of alert stalking.

31. I Had A Similar Experience Earlier This Evening

I was skimming through the Forums and inadvertently, I stepped into a HC Supporters group. I didn't even know it as I didn't have "See Everything" Turned on. Someone was ranting about Bernie, how he needed to get his sorry a** to the Senate, get all of his voting privileges and his ranking memberships taken away. I countered (again unknowing it was a landmine) with a harmless snark--not vulgar in any way, and I was told to get my hateful spew out of there. Someone pointed out that I may have been in the wrong forum.

Seeing my mistake, I left, but the group reminded me of what the HC supporters call "Bernie Bros". I've not encountered those types personally as most of the Berniecrats I know are former Clarkies, Edwards, O'Malley, or Kerrycrats. But the experience was like being in a well with the digger pouring mud instead of drawing water (to put it nicely,you can visualize what I'm getting at).

I don't have as many posts at the DU even though I've been around since 2004. I'm at DK, twitter, or FB most of the time.

Incidentally, a jury of 5-2 stopped the thread, so I guess I wasn't far off about the viciousness of that comment.

What I see from them is what a headline from the Guardian read today:

Why Must the Trump alternative be self-satisfied, complacent Democrat?

It's worth a read.

If they are OK with Hillary being part of the Metropolitan Wing of the Party (an expression Dem Strategist Mudcat Saunders Says about the Democratic Party at present):

The party’s leadership is largely drawn from a satisfied cohort that has done quite well in the aftermath of the Great Recession. They’ve got a good thing going. Convinced that the country’s ongoing demographic shifts will bring Democratic victory for years to come, they seem to believe the party’s candidates need do nothing differently to harvest future electoral bumper crops. The seeds are already planted. All that is required is patience.

Hillary Clinton is more or less openly offering herself as the complacency candidate. The least inspiring frontrunner in many years, she is a dynastic heir who stands to receive the Democratic nomination largely because it’s her turn – the logic that made Bob Dole the GOP leader in 1996

I guess I'm not one of them and haven't been for quite some time.
