(98,996 posts)I posted this Op and it is the only negative one that I have done. You know why, because it is not good enough.
If he wants to be President to ALL of the people he needs to start listening. I do not want the focus on Economic Justice. It will not work.
As for my other Op on social vs economic justice, that has been an issue long before Bernie entered the race. Many of us have talked about it here. Usually in the minority groups, because few in GD give a damn. Few care David. Very few.
So now you are here telling me no one should speak ill of Sanders or his supporters. David, where have you been when GD vilifies Obama supporters? We are called BOG scum. Obots. Mindless. Third Way. Republican Lite.
My President was called a PIECE OF SHIT USED CAR SALESMAN and it got about 500 recs on DU! He has been called worse than Bush. A sellout and a Trojan Horse ready to destroy the middle class. Another 500 recs! Where were you when all this was happening? Where you David? That hurt me. It hurt so many of us that support this Democratic President. He is our twice elected President and is vilified here, yet you are silent.
I have been called filthy names here and it continues, I did not see you call anyone out about that. Oh some of, the filthy names happened long before Bernie. A jury member called me a bitch and the worst bully on DU a few months ago.
Ya know something, I like Bernie. He is a good guy. The ugliness of his supporters, that you don't seem to see, would turn anyone off from supporting him.
You want to turn this around, David. I think you need to talk to your friends.
In return you ask for something and I'll negotiate for it.
It is a nice thought David. Yet you are asking us to play nice when Bernie supporters vilify us.
They vilify Clinton and Obama and all their supporters.
If you wish to continue this PM me. I won't continue this on a board that will continue to harass me for my comments.
